As you get older you will appreciate simplicity! My 2005 Base Tacoma is the 4 cylinder 2.7, RWD, 5MT and I will drive it till the day I die! When all the bells and whistles and gadgets and gizmos on your fancy truck stop functioning, my hand crank windows and bench seat will still be comfortably working.

@quadrunner91 Funny you ask, I actually traded it in for a 2019 TRD Sport Access Cab, new... 3.5L V6 with the 6 speed manual. It's a great truck. I wouldn't recommend the getting the 2017 2.7L 5 speed... it is very slow and underpowered... but very reliable as you know. They actually discontinued the 2.7L 5 speed manual for the 3rd gen. One more thing to note is when I went to use the 4x4 in the 2.7L 5 speed manual is that the truck would bog down and almost stall in the snow. The v6 Manual I never have that iasue

I just picked up a 07 Access Cab Base with the v6 and 6 speed. Similar options to your dad's, with 130k. Now this has the frame recall done, so it has a new frame, control arms, fuel and brake lines, u joints, anything it needed under the recall was done. I really like the simplicity of it, and it's light enough to tow behind a RV when we retire. More than enough power on the highway.

I have owned many vehicles in life but I've only owed 2 Toyotas, and I still have them. How can anyone part with a Toyota. One is identical to that with just 30k miles and the other is a 94 pickup that I've had over 20 years. When I heard in the summer of 2014 that they were discontinuing their regular cab I put in an order for a base model 4wd truck, waited until August when it was finished being built and picked it up. These have gone through the roof in price, I wouldn't dream of selling mine for anything less than top blue book value being still like new, they cost to much to replace.

I had a 2005 Tacoma standard regular cab I paid $15,000.00 for it. Now last October me and my wife decided to get a new one before the go to high in price. Now the base price starts at $24g and that's is what i was going to buy because I was happy because it only comes in extra cab. So my wife told me why don't you upgrade from a basic Tacoma and get something with more. So after driving all they have to offer I got a 20017 SR5 4x4 v6 after all the paperwork and extra stuff came to $40g . But I glad I did it the best truck I have owned. So great video.

Access cab This will be our exploring retirement .........truck and we will be putting a Tufport T-59 on the back to cross sleep in........ We will then head to the mountains of Vancouver island looking for one of the 400 cougars which is the world record.

My v6 6 speed recently purchased seems to have plenty of power. It's not a drag racer but I stepped into it last night. You definitely won't be in the slow lane. Cruising at interstate speeds is no problem.

Bruce R. Thats why i also own a Ram 3500 with a 6.7 Cummins. The Taco is for mileage, light duty hauling with off road capability and better maneuverability, and to get to work in winter conditions. It's also light enough to tow behind a RV when I retire.

Yeah you don't get all that electronic BS that breaks when it gets older. Its so hard you know to manually roll down a window and adjust the mirror on the passenger side. in a small standard bed (sarcasm) Man how can I live without a automatic review sliding window located 5 inches from my head.!!!!

For half the price, or less, get a Tacoma one generation prior, or in my case I got the first generation 2002 6 cylinder and all the bells and whistles. Mine also doesn't have fog lights, the only missing option, so the fuck what. We get fog where I live once every five years.

We actually had a 2004 Tacoma back in the day. I personally think that the 2014 was worth every penny since it's a lot more comfortable. Plus you can get a second gen like the one in the video for $18-ish now

i love my truck, but the sat radio doesn't work all the time. truck has to be turned off for ten mins or so and turn it back on for it to "reset"? forget the radio for a second. i previously had a colorado. a solid, thick, well built truck////BUT. the toyota seems like a better value. mine is the quicksand tan. i bought it because of the color. bone stock except for the floor mats. i don't fault toyo for the radio.....not a deal killer, in every other aspect, the truck is a grand slam.

Hmm, interesting. I'd talk to the dealer since that sounds like a pretty decent problem. The only real problem I've had with my Tacoma is the AC evaporator going out. These trucks hold value amazingly as well

My current truck is a 2013 Prerunner as well. It does well for what it is. It's just a simple affordable truck so you can't complain. But my next Tacoma will more than likely be a V6, but for sure will be a manual 4x4
