I bought a used 2021 Tacoma almost a year ago. My first Toyota. It had 37k miles on it. SO GLAD I went used instead of listening to the salesman and waiting on a 2024 or trying to go with a new Tundra. I’m loving my V6 Tacoma so far.

[@carlito_148]

They could have improved efficiency and gas mileage and kept the reliability. The 3.5 and 4.0 were 15 year old motors. They just decided not to. Turbos can be reliable its the build quality that is disappointing. Could have hybridized the existing motors and tuned them down or went 2.5 electric. Put a heavier transmission. BUMP STOPS.

[@MrTheKing]

The reason they changed the engine was not because it was old but because of stricter emission regulations. A 2021 V8 Tundra produces 601 grams of greenhouse gas emissions per mile, and a 2024 Tundra produces 459 grams per mile. I agree they should have kept the old V6 and V8 because they were tough but I mean they had a reason they had to change. I’d bet if it weren’t for the changing laws they would still use the old engines

[@dianasalazar6184]

@@MrTheKing it’s really unfortunate they are kind of forced to make the change. Less reliable vehicles are likely less environmentally friendly. So is it worth the slight increase in fuel efficiency? Personally I don’t think so because in the end the consumer gets screwed over by having to eat up costs of repairs or having to buy another vehicle.

1. They dropped the V6 for basically 1mpg better. 2. They added an 8 speed auto for 1 mpg better. 3. They made the gas tank 3 gallons smaller so the range is still the same, negates any improvement because you still have to stop just as often. 4. Force you to spend 4-8k for a trailer brake controller, which adds so any options it kills payload. I was excited for this truck and getting back into a manual Tacoma. But for that price Im not going to get rid of my 2500 chevy which I picked up for 45k. Can actually fit in the cab and actually tow.

sticking with my V6. Shame the Tacoma lost the suicide rear door on the access cab. I want a TRD Pro 6ft bed, access cab NOT 4 DOOR and not at 50k .... I'm not spending more than 45k for a fucking Tacoma.

Just bought a 2015 Tacoma TRD sport with 150K miles and love it and it runs and drives like new. Have an 07 FJ with 230K miles and zero issues. Will keep both of these as long as possible with the tried and true 1GR-FE…might be a little underpowered for some (I think it’s fine) and not very sexy but will go forever.

[@rickv5833]

Not trying to say anything bad about Nissan other than their truck marketing not good. But thanks to Toyota fails has brought Nissan back into the spotlight. Maybe they should keep the Titan just a few more years while Toyota fixes all the issues the Tundra is giving them. Let's thank Nissan for keeping their trucks naturally aspirated. So far.

The old engines had sufficient power.... The problem is the throttle is not linear to the gas pedal. If you change that with many after market modules you will feel the power immediately. I believe Toyota did this due to emissions ..

Affordable and reliable is no longer Toyota. I owned a new Tacoma when they were designed and produced in Japan. The truck was absolutely rock solid, now Toyotas are just like the rest of the domestic market and indistinguishable. We are in the market for a new truck and we are not even considering Toyota as an option at this point.

This is surprising to hear. We’ve owned 7-8 Toyotas, including a Tacoma. I currently drive a 2016 RAV4. We’ve never had a single trouble with any of them. Literally nothing. Watching the video, my first thought was No way, this is a scam or sabotage. You just don’t do something that great for that long, then start being crappy. Their whole company culture is quality. Maybe it is sabotage!

4 cylinder turbo for a pickup? Lame.

[@pezpengy9308]

we bought a used toyota pickup with a 22something or other engine. it was AWFUL! sometimes we would bail out because of the gasoline smell thinking it was about to explode. sometimes the engine would just... stop running. then it would randomly start up again. i dont think i want to buy another, when it came time to replace it (as soon as we could afford it) we bought an f150 thats given us only one issue... and that was with the air conditioner after 140k miles. no big deal we fixed it and now its great. zero issues with the engine or transmission. to be honest the toyota was our first commercial truck and we remember it fondly for its many quirks.

so you're saying the older gen is worse? I really don't think you know what you are talking about let alone know anything about vehicles.

I grabbed a very well equipped 2023 TRD Sport Tacoma last December when I could get a deal. Not the biggest cargo or towing capacity but it should last! Probably can sell it right now for a nice little profit, but I won't. Honestly I don't care for any of the technology stuff except the back up camera. In retrospect should have grabbed a loaded SR5 with a regular key start. Love the manual parking brake handle.

[@georgedreher2322]

I bought a new 2022 V6 loaded TRD Off Road 4x4 with key start & manual trans 2 years ago. It's worth more now than what I paid for it.

@@georgedreher2322 Yeah I had slim pickings it was the last of the new 3rd gen stock. A lunar grey TRD sport, with long bed double cab, showed up on the lot when I was there and I grabbed it. Still had the plastic cover on it. LED foglights, headlights and bedllights, 120 volt outlet in the bed, floor mats. Very nice setup. Grabbed the Toyota tube steps and mud flaps on sale too. Not going to say what I paid but it was a great deal!

[@kyulee2758]

This is what happens when Toyota trying to make "new" products. All they did was using old proven technolgy and only updating it for 15, 20 plus years. Therefore, they were "reliable" Now they have develope new tech like most others and see what happens. Toyota wasnt way better then others they just been doing dont fix it if it aint broke for really long time.

My 2018 Highlander is incredible. Enough power and the size gives a sense of safety and absolutely no engine or trans problems so mechanical safety is always a bonus. The RAV4 I used to own was also a really reliable and sturdy vehicle.

[@davep4610]

It's easy to say that "Toyota will take care of their customers", such as after an engine fails, because they are doing that now for 2022 and 2023 Tundras. Which are still under warrantee. What happens if I buy a Tundra or Tacoma and drive it 100,000 miles THEN the engine fails because of manufacturing problems? At that point I'd bet that Toyota would not jump to replace engines out of warrantee. I wish that the Tacoma had the current ergonomics and seating position but the old V-6 with a modern transmission, even a 6 speed, plus the manual transmission option.
