Toyota Tacoma - New Vs old, '24 vs '23 - Test Drive | Everyday Driver

We've driven the new 2024 Toyota Tacoma a few times, as well as the prior generation in every trim. Finally, we've had the chance to put them together and see how much has actually changed. There were immediate surprises. We discover improvements, and things that are nearly the same. Join us, for a comparison test drive.

Anyone who orders white seats on a truck isn't going to be doing trunk things with it.

[@brucefredrickson9677]

Glam white seats...for the lady?

[@JohnNick72]

Depends on the seat material, but let’s be honest…. A very high percentage of all non-fleet trucks never do truck things and their owner’s hardly ever put anything in the bed. Just like most SUVs never do S or U things. Just a dumb trend by US buyers.

[@texttwenty-nine1627]

​@JohnNick72 Very true! I like the practicality of a truck, but I don't do truck things all that often. I think insurance is part of the reason people buy trucks when they don't need them. I had a modified Dakota r/t because a v8 car is too expensive to insure. 😅 That Dakota was just pure stupid fun. Lol

You just know people are going to remove that ugly plastic air damn under the new one. Might improve MPG but I'd rather the approach angle and ground clearance.

[@07HDDriver]

You guys keep mentioning that it’s not that much bigger, but 3 inches in track width is quite a bit. I’ve taken my gen 3 on trails where that certainly would have caused problems. It also means it would give me 3 inches less space in between cars in the garage, which is significant. Otherwise, I do respect that Toyota listened to our concerns and addressed most of them.

[@Dusdaddy]

Sure. And Gen 1 is narrower than yours, but I'd still take a Gen 3 over a Gen 1. Everything is a compromise.

True, but the Toyota head tech guy pointed out in another video that the door width is the same so when you open a door both have the same clearance.

[@armyretired28]

I had a chance to get a new 2024 Off Road TRD but I like the smaller Gen 3 trucks that don't have a turbo 4 engine that won't have the reliability in the long run. That big screen sized 'laptop' looking crap on the dash in a distraction! I bought a new '23 TRD Off Road, all the bugs have been worked out over the years and it probably will be more reliable than any New '24. ~ This is my 3rd Tacoma and may be my last, the '23 model will probably outlast me.

[@paulm6481]

The old one may not ride well as good and transmission for sure hunts on any highway with grades. Still for doing truck things it does good amd will last easy over 200,000 miles. Hopefully the new one can also last that long.

[@jacksturgell8756]

I love my 23 TRD off road. It’s tried and true and will last forever. The thing people don’t think about is you are straining the hell out of a 4 banger with the turbo. Toyota has gone away from a standard pickup that will last forever.

[@deantrainr]

Very true! I’d tried to convince “The Flyin Freckle”🥱 this same fact but to no avail.😳

[@Drake5153]

When you bring up engines the opinion is true, V8>V6>I4 because the V8 had the same milage as the V6 but with more torque, but both are more reliable than a turbo I4. In my opinion if your going to throw in forced induction you might as well go diesel. You get efficiency, power AND reliability, cant really beat that.

[@PatrickLindemann22]

Would love them to make a diesel one. Seems diesel is basically exclusively used in heavy duty domestic pickups in America now. It’s been knee capped by all the emissions restrictions for sure, surely that’s part of it. Forced to have all these complex emissions systems these days. My family has cars with both the old 5.7 v8 and the v6 (2013 and 2021 Land Cruisers, 2022 4Runner) and yeah the fuel economy is no different. That v8 is just perfect for its application, sad to see it go.

[@Dusdaddy]

I don't see small turbo diesels being any more reliable than gas. The turbo is always the biggest fail point either way.

[@pashaga3695]

I'm all Toyota, but my current '23 GMC 3.0 Duramax has 310hp and 495lb and it hauls, plus I'm averaging 27mpg empty and 21 towing my 2400lb trailer which a new Tacoma would drop down to 14 mpg. By the way, went from '19 Tundra to '23 Tundra and it was total trash. Dont even get me started, hence the '23 GMC Sierra 1500 diesel.@@PatrickLindemann22

[@kodiaksride]

Fatigue? What the heck, are you both 90 y/o? I've been driving the 3rd gen since 2006 with a manual transmission and never do I get fatigued. I guess I must be one of the few that enjoy the 3rd gen with the V6 and manual transmission. I will say that I did get a 2020 with the power driver seat which definitely helps. I drove a 2006 for 10 years and loved it. I wish they would have kept the 4.0 V6. That is the only draw back to the 2020. The 3rd gen works well as a daily driver and for long distance travel, example Colorado to Ontario, Canada. Your primary audience will appreciate your enthusiasm for the 2024. The 14 inch screen looks out of place in the truck. I guess I'm old school and will be happy with the 3rd gen for years to come!

The hydraulic steering which is a bit heavy can be fatiguing for some. Along with gear hunting which gets more annoying than fatiguing.

Not all of us spend all are time in a unit for driving, most of us drive to work and pick up stuff from the store on the way home, average is 20 miles each way.

I purchased a brand new 2022 Tacoma SR5 2WD A/T V6 with 11 miles on it in Barcelona red. It was towards the end of covid and no one had any vehicles on their lots. I happened to luck out b/c some guy had ordered this Tacoma and couldn't pay for it when it came in. I just happened to show up the next morning looking for a used Tacoma, and to make a long story short I purchased the 2022 Red Tacoma. I traded in my Ford Escape and with a low interest rate I was able to buy it. I love it. It was exactly what I was looking for but didn't think I'd get. It's the best 3rd gen. truck with a a great V6 engine that purrs down the road (I've had 4 cylinder Turbos in the past- no thanks.) I wouldn't want to pay 2024 Tacoma prices for a small turbo engine. I'll keep it's my lucky red V6 truck w/only 9000 miles on it now. I have to say that the 2024 Tacoma SR 4 DR A/T would be my choice If I had to buy a new Tacoma b/c the new SR5's aren't as well equipped as the 3rd gen. models like mine. There aren't enough reviews on KZbin about the 2024 Tacoma SR crew cab A/T which will probably be the best selling Tacoma b/c of it's affordable price. 🍀✌🏼❤💋🌵🛻🌵🛻🍀👍🏼😁

[@michaelguest3693]

I love my 3rd generation Tacoma, but when pulling a trailer at highway speeds, the engine is always screaming and that automatic transmission doesn’t know what to do. The new one should theoretically trailer better. Maybe Toyota has got me used to outdated technology, but the one thing I noticed in the new one that is perhaps the most exciting new feature is… the rear window defrost.

[@rdiamond655]

You guys are at 7000 feet. the NA v6 may be rated at 278, but at your altitude is really about 220. With a Turbo, you are actually getting very close to the 278.

[@usnr5950]

Great review! But I truly believe the new Tacoma just forgets it’s a truck not a poser for a soccer mom.

[@thirdpedalnirvana]

I highly doubt that. Soccer moms have moved on from body on frame trucks and now they want Grand Highlanders. I think the big loss is the infinite durability of the truck. Direct injection turbo 4's are just being pushed too hard between power needs and emissions requirements, they won't be driving around in 20 years. At the same time I'm happy to see a 4cyl back, the classic mini truck to me is a 4 cyl not a V6

Should have done extra 6 inches for back seat🎉

[@bsd7342]

Why do you guys hammer on the old powertrain like it is inherently sluggish by design or 6 isn't enough speeds? That's not what happened. The old tacoma's transmission was electronically nerfed to qualify for government money (EPA emissions) without resorting to auto stop/start. If you rewrite the program with OTT or Kdmax, the problem magically goes away. There are two things you can sacrifice to get higher emissions numbers: performance (transmission programming) and longevity (turbos, stop/start).

[@ChrisScheller-lg9mi]

Did the 24 you drove have a moonroof? I've heard this takes away 2 inches of headroom. Concerned as I'm also a tall guy. The production limiteds all have a moonroof, but this is a pre production and I couldn't catch a shot showing if it had one.

A lot of people re-gear the Tacoma axles and that makes a big difference. The 6 speed is a double over drive transmission, re-gearing makes it so you don't need to Rev the engine out.

This Tacoma is an upgrade but it still has trouble towing anything over 3,500 lbs in the mountains of Colorado.

[@Dusdaddy]

Anything mid-sized is going to have a hard time towing in mountains.

[@billw8476]

4cyl is a downgrade,at an upgrade price. pay a lot more, get less....

[@Dusdaddy]

@@billw8476 lol...I would agree with you but then we'd both be wrong. They just finished testing it saying the 4cyl had more power.

[@fatbowe]

Ok it's got better seats😂

[@beexiong2995]

You guys are too nice to the 3rd gen truck. The transmission isnt fine. The torqueless engine isnt fine. This drivetrain is lazy at best. Reliable to a fault but everything else about the drivetrain is terrible. Payload on that long bed is barely 950 lbs. Thats awful. Im sorry i have to disagree with your assessment of the 3rd gen

[@T_O_Negative]

They made the old Toyota for so long? 😂🙄 ain't even watching the video already lost me at it. Wait and see how long they keep making this one 🙄🙄🙄

[@eddiehaskell5578]

Proudly built in Mexico 🇲🇽 by skilled workers who are paid $6.75 a day. That’s a day, not an hour. Toyota should be selling this truck for 12,000 because it cost less than $5,000 to build 😅 good luck with that 4 banger 😅

[@johnjuza2659]

What is that ugly black thing hanging below the front bumper? Turbo has to go😠

[@truthnow902]

Well definitely the new one will win in a drag race but hands down the old one will win in reliability the new one just looks so cheap more garbage features you don't need it's just more computer stuff to break down it just looks so cheap interior does look nicer it has a snow machine motor in it 4-cylinder Turbo that is such a big joke you can laugh all day about it they know that the four cylinder is weak and pathetic in a truck so they put a turbo in it to make that motor work extra extra extra hard to pull that big truck yeah that makes a lot of sense keep the forest cylinders for the cars people a truck should have nothing less than a 3.5 V6 if it wants to be a real truck but we know that Tacoma for 2024 is a joke it is a joke and a disgrace to the old Tacoma the old Tacoma go to circles on laps around that piece of junk it out last night you want a million times over no brainer here!!!!!!

[@XCELERATIONRULES]

The only thing old in this video are the talking heads

[@TestDriveVideos]

Classy…

[@aknadiri2520]

turbo is sht :)

[@fireboltaz]

These guys spent like 15 minutes bashing the 2023 model. We get it guys, the 2023 model is inferior to the 2024 model. Speed up your monologue.

[@TestDriveVideos]

? - There are chapter markers to show the split, 9 minutes total on the '23 truck and many of the upsides of that year were stated as well. Sorry it didn't work for you.

[@fireboltaz]

@@TestDriveVideos the video had good points, but you came off like a couple of school girls moaning more than a normal man ought to. Either way thank you for your time and effort reviewing this topic

[@ms1406]

Lol Toyota has lost their mind nobody is going to pay for that!!

[@sanjaykapoor6989]

Toyota hilux looks better then tacoma

[@burtoncrowell4371]

I wish they would put no effort into making improvements I wish they would leave the V6 there's no replacement for cubic displacement take a small block Chevy versus a big block no comparison even the newer ones you get those big Pistons makes a world of difference gas or diesel hook a heavy trailer up to it and watch it fall on its ass they need to just leave things alone once they develop a good 6-speed or whatever and it's tried and true leave it to hell alone they've got to quit putting all these electronic gadgets and all this electronic bulshit on these trucks $60,000 for a Toyota Tacoma are you shiting me that is absolutely absurd I wish somebody would send me $60,000 if they're just going to throw it away absolutely ridiculous no one should buy them and then they'll get the hint and maybe they'll put the price down to about $30,000 which is where it needs to be stupid stupid price

[@warsword2538]

Manual transmission Manual every thing please it's a truck!!!!
