What owners say
"Overall, owners really appreciate the Toyota Tacoma for its reliability, durability, and performance. Many highlight its strong resale value and off-road capabilities, particularly in the TRD models. However, some mention that the price can be a bit high and that it may not have as much hauling capacity as larger trucks."
I absolutely love this truck. Recommend it to everyone! Wouldnt trade it for anything. Unbelievably fast for a small V6 truck and impressive pulling power. Best body style Tacoma yet. Much more room inside than ever before.13 cup holders!! Oh...Dare ya to race me!
August 18, 2009The Toyota Tacoma is the benchmark when it comes to durability, reliability and resale value. These trucks hold their value so well because their owners hold onto them for so long. Its a truck that will always crank up and do what you need it to do. The 4x4 versions, especially the TRD Off-Road and TRD Pro models, have more off-road capability than most any other vehicle out there.
June 14, 2022I bought my 2009 Toyota Tacoma X-Runner about two weeks ago and I love it! The ride is smooth, and the looks are great, a real head turner. The 6 speed transmission is smooth and very forgiving, I haven't driven a straight stick in awhile and was a little rough at shifting, no problem with the 6 speed. The acceleration is quick and the handling beats most sport cars I have diven in the past. I wanted a truck for hauling stuff when I need to and enjoy driving around town. This truck does both. The interior is refined but still get the feel of a truck. I think it is the best street truck on the market. You get the best of both worlds, trucking and touring. The gas mileage is not that good but mirrors other compact trucks. No regrets here!

August 27, 2009Best truck made so far solid and reliable, highly recommended
March 27, 2024Good truck overall, but a full-size gets similar gas mileage with more size and capacity. Good head room in the front. Not much leg room in the back seats but they are deep so they are still pretty comfortable. Four wheel drive system works very well with the front having a locking diff. It is a bit light in the rear end though so it rides a bit choppy when empty.
October 23, 2011it has got a SR5 Package including criuse control ,power everything,keyless entry. Off -Road package ,Locking Rear Differential, off road tires all round. One of the best 4x4 I've owned ,very low miles alwways garaged and meticulously-maintained. Great Off -Roader
November 19, 2010I like driving a vehicle that does not depreciate and is extremely reliable. build quality is excellent. Has decent fuel economy when driving normally. Nice ride height, Very smooth for a truck. What can be said. Its a Toyota Tacoma. Never outdated. Never needs to be traded at wholesale prices. Never towed anything so could not rate that,
August 14, 2013Great looking truck. Very comfortable ride. Toyota reliability. 245 stock HP. With a good set of tires... there's no snowstorm that can stop this truck. Turning radius has a lot to be desired, but all in all the Toyota Tacoma is one of the best vehicles you can buy.
June 2, 2013Long bed holds a couch (which is bad when friends find out), towing package is enough for small loads (including a small ski boat), and room for 5. Better than a car, and goes places a larger truck can't. Very fun truck to drive.
October 5, 2010I love my truck. Its just a basic Tacoma, but I think it runs great!!! It has excellent breaking. Its small for a truck so it doesnt have all the weight of a big truck or suv, so i think thats good. Its good on gas as far as trucks go. I dont have any problems with my truck.
