I got a 2024 Chevy Silverado 1500 with the inline 6, 3.0 Duramax turbo diesel for $54,120.00 at White's Mountain in Casper. Just a standard LT, 4x4 with heated front seats, heated steering wheel, 13.4" infotainment system. Sticker price was $61,026.00. Hasn't used any oil, despite what I heard online, used about 2 gallons of DEF in 1800 miles (I got it with 61 miles on the ODO). Toyota was my second choice because a Ram 1500 was not an option and the F-150 XLT's at Greiner in Casper start at $70,000 and climb, for an XLT half ton! Glad I stuck to my Chevy

Mexico has 42 car makers in the country with around 500 different models being produced there. Its one of the best industries for automotive manufacturing. Whats wrong with that? I understand the sentiment due to less jobs in the USA but offshoring has been ongoing for decades. Newsflash, Toyota is not the only car manufacturer moving their assembly lines to Mexico. Companies like BMW, Ford, Teslas have all done this. Offshoring to Mexico was primarily triggered by the tariffs on China.

[@deantrainr]

Hey Untamed, I just test drove a 2024 Tacoma trd off road today and other than the new 8 speed gearbox, I wasn’t impressed. The initial throttle response (low range) was impressive but when I floored the throttle to get on the freeway, I wasn’t impressed compared to the 3rd gen V6 powerband. Noticed the cheapness of the interior with more cheap plastic than the previous gen Tacoma. The hood I could see vibrate on the rear of the hood closest to the windshield on the drivers side and again, the truck literally felt like a four cylinder that was out of juice when I got on it at freeway speeds. I know advocates like TRDJon, robmotive, and the TFE crew (among others) rant and rave about how infinitely superior it is to the “old gen” 3rd gen Tacoma but I’m not feeling or agreeing with their enthusiasm about this new platform. I guess I’m not drinking the same Toyota Kool-aid as they are, nor am I politically obligated to the Toyota higher ups as well. Love my 2022 3rd gen TRD PRO Tacoma and maybe I’d change my tune if they dropped the price(s) to a realistic MSRP but I know I’d be drinking the Toyota “Kool-aid” ad well. 😳

[@Slammingutz]

I agree with you. The seats and interior are cheap. The engine is gutless when you attempt to merge onto the freeway. It’s an all around overpriced cheap (Mexico built) bait and switch from the old Toyota trucks.

I'm old enough to remember the 1988 Toyota truck. It had a EFI engine good ac with R12 in it you would freeze with it. You could buy them for $7500 brand new made in Japan. Now look at Toyotas 50k for a Mexican Tacoma.

Yup was trying to get one of those around 2008-2009 for my first vehicle. Obama took a dump on us with cash for clunkers. You could get a nice one for around $3500 at that time. Couldnt afford one at the time so I bought a sedan, figured Id wait till the prices came down. Looks like I'll never own my dream vehicle. Or maybe any of its decendents either. If Toyota keeps this crap up the 2015-2023 model is gonna be selling for $35k for the next 30 years on the used market.
