People cant really accept the fact the new tacoma is way better than the previous gen. The powertrain is so much better and very capable despite its smaller displacement 4cyl turbo. These people who give negative comment are just troll , they dont even test drive nor did own a previous tacoma to compare with

[@ravensfootball52]

Ranger sport for 42 seemed like a good deal but we don’t know what the interior was like. My issue with the Ranger is it’s very boring design. The Tacoma looks far better in my opinion. Hope you compare other trucks too!

[@davidchenette1091]

I'm just like you Rob I have check out Ford dealers and Nissan dealers and I don't see them any cheaper then my tacoma TRD off-road

[@dyates6380]

I am not looking for a truck at this point and don't know if I ever will again based on my very low milage 2018 Tacoma Sport, but if I was, I wouldn't buy a new Tacoma. NOT a fan of the new engine and the price is out of hand. That being said, I have NO idea what I'd buy. I have had two F150s, but that was literally in the middle and late eighties, and a LOT has changed since then. I KNOW I'd never touch anything GM OR Stellantis though. Again, I would really have to think about it.

[@fiftyshadesofurban]

The Ford Ranger Raptor is way better than the new Tacoma in almost every way, but when it comes to prowess on the rocks I have seen very disappointing footage. It can't do much of anything without engaging both lockers. But as a regular truck or as a drive fast off road truck, it's the best mid-size truck you can get IMO, as long as you don't mind horrible mpg.

[@bobengland1328]

[@mikeshumate1840]

Nissan Frontier Pro-4X is the move.....

[@BX_Staff-Home]

Rob , any issues with your transmission.? Looks like bigtime problems with it now and probably a recall.

[@RobMotive]

None. I think saying there are “bigtime problems” is an over exaggeration at this point. I have heard rumors of a handful and who knows if they’re valid?

[@odca72]

@@RobMotive thats right. People just keep repeating what they heard or saw in the social media as if this is big issue. They try to exaggerate then make a big issue

[@AnneGielow]

I like the idea of the ranger, and I did test drive both and xlt and lariat. They did feel roomier than the taco but it didn't feel like i was driving a truck, maybe more of a sports car. But I also have not driven the new gen of taco so maybe they drive similar. But it didn't give me the same lovin feeling that my 3rd gen taco gave me. Nice trucks though for sure, and I wouldn't mind a ranger raptor except I find the interior hideous in it

[@timandpen]

Thank you Rob! Love all of these people claiming that the Tacoma is $10k too much and then go buy a $53k Raptor

[@walter8373]

[@c7406-q8c]

Before problem pops up, TFL just sold Blueberry 24 Tacoma. If you took enough KZbin contents with it… it might be good idea to sell it now while you can to avoid all new level of headache. If you really liked it then you can buy new one again few years later.

[@RobMotive]

As a KZbin channel, they bring in and get rid of vehicles very frequently. Using their length of ownership as a measuring stick for the Tacoma is inaccurate.

[@c7406-q8c]

@@RobMotiveI agree they called it they did long term review… but it was only 6months. For example until major engine failure recall it took about 3years for Tundra.

[@dennishoward7553]

I haven’t seen a new ranger that I like yet. Some of the new Broncos are pretty sweet. The Maverick well I think of the car lol. I have seen the Maverick truck at a couple of car shows not for sure why it was there for Lol. The Raptor I really like them. I like the F 150 we had one for about 4 months as a rental V6 turbo. I have been in a new Mustang convertible with the 4 cylinder and believe it or it was very impressive. I would prefer a V8 mustang though.

[@chrisbiggerstaff3083]

The Broncos have major issues in the motor and computer system but the Ford dealerships won't tell anyone about them because they have to get them sold.

[@donjuan2105]

When Toyota announced the new 4th gen id had every intentions of replacing my 3rd gen in two year's from now. I truly wanted the TRD PRO until i realized the price and hybrid engine. I previously owned a 2004 Tacoma that lasted for ever. Ive always considered myself a Tacoma fanboy but ill be going with a new Ranger Raptor over the PRO. Its far superior and cheaper than the TRD PRO.

Oh look a mid size ford pickup with a 4 cyl turbo, priced the same as an overpriced Tacoma, and no one complains.

[@chrisbiggerstaff3083]

Just go back and get the Tacoma you traded in it's better than the new generation. The Toyota dealership in Greer has sent me several offers wanting me to trade my 2022 Tacoma XP and they're offering me between $35,000-$38,000 for my Tacoma,, basically offering me 110% value for me to trade it. At first I was thinking about the Trail Hunter package, but after seeing the prices of the New Tacomas which is way higher than initially said they're going to be and then see the issues several Gen 4 owners have spoke about and then the big kicker no V6 at all in them I was saying they have to think I'm stupid to trade DOWN. If I trade my Tacoma in it will definitely be for another Gladiator Rubicon because I miss my Gladiator to me it was way better than the Tacoma.

[@RobMotive]

Why would I do that? I wouldn’t have bought the ‘24 if I didn’t like it. Curious, it sounds like you don’t like your Tacoma…why did you buy it?

[@chrisbiggerstaff3083]

@RobMotive Because I heard so much on their reliability and thought I would try it out, Yes in a way I like my Tacoma, but I really liked my Gladiator Rubicon alot better. If it wasn't for the accident I got into on my way to work and totaled the Gladiator I would still have it, but since they wrote it up as totaled the insurance company had the tow truck take it and paid the truck off, so I was in a hurry to find another truck with the money I had for a down payment and that's when I got the Tacoma, I don't like the rear drum brakes and the leaf springs suspension on the back of the Tacoma and having to pay monthly in order to use the GPS system in the truck is wrong, I didn't have to do that with the Gladiator.

[@erickim2025]

Trade in a my Tacoma for a Ford, ridiculous no way! I'd catch the bus rather then drive a Ford!

[@ryannewazada2102]

Aloha Rob. I'd go with the Jeep Gladiator in 2025 as they're providing new powertrains for the JT with better towing capabilities and payload capacity.

Have you driven one? Do you have experience doing the things you mention with the new Tacoma? What do you base your assertions on?

[@ravensfootball52]

How does it suck as a truck?

[@markfambrini2511]

I have a 2019 TRD Tocoma paid35000 for it . I’m a contractor so I work that truck. Tow a 18 duckworth boat all over California. Yes I have much experience! I’ve had about ten Toyota trucks inthe past thirty years! Now my past plan was when my truck got around 60000 miles on it I would trade it in for a new one. This was also a tax Strategy. I’m probably number one on the list at WalnutCreek Toyota for a new TRD hybrid. They notified me last week that they had assigned a truck to me cost 60000. Lots of stupid add ons told me that’s the way it is take it or leave it, I told them I’ll go buy a Ranger they said fine see you later! The Ranger I would buy has the 2.7 six. Now my thinking is my TRD is a better machine than the new one, didn’t cost a fortune and probably will last longer than the turbo 4. So even with plenty of money to buy a new truck why? Think I’ll just try to not drive as much, Co2 emissions, suck it up and relax as I drive my truck/boat up to the mountains, underpowered, and ride my electric bike for errands in town!

Your knowledge of Ford products is clearly limited. I've been a Toyota Tacoma owner for 30 years. I don't have an issue with the Turbo 4. I have an issue with value. Toyota has more competition today, than they have had in many years. Chevy, Ford and Nissan are really competitive today. The Frontier is the value leader today due to the money on the hood. Bias aside, everyone needs to do their research. If I were replacing my Tacoma today, I'd have a hard time buying a new Tacoma. I'm not making a move anytime soon.
