Anyone here have a Toyota Tacoma 4wd TRD?

Thought I was the only one with this sort of problem. I' ve had at least 7, 7.3 powerstrokes, 1 duramax dually, 1 2500 dodge 4x4 and who knows how many others.. my only issue with a yota is, I'm 6'1" @245lbs, I don't fit very well!!!

I weigh about the same but I'm a only 5'8". A full size truck is really more than I need. I don't tow anything and I don't really use the bed unless I'm putting deer in the back (main reason why I want a truck). I do want 4wd so the few times we get snow I can still go hunting. Also, trucks are handy when transporting dirty stuff for yard work and ect... I just want something that will last a long time and not require a lot of upkeep.

Next time you see me get in mine. Every car I have ever owned I push the seat all the way to the rear. The tacoma is the first vehicle I have ever owned that if I do that I can't reach the pedals. The leg room in this thing is insane.

i have a 96 Tacoma 4wd. im nearing 200,000 miles on it with only normal wer and tear sort of repairs over the years. It'll probably see 300,000 before i think about passing it along.

I had an 03 v6 4wd Trd taco with all the options and manual gearbox. Aside from needing more power I loved it. The newer stuff is nice and roomier for sure.

I have a 2014 Taco 4x4 TRD Off Road, it does come with a back up camera, locking rear differential, the audio is pretty good with a touch screen and XM radio, no leather but who needs leather!!

I know I may get blasted for this. But you can get a nice 5.3 Silverado or F-150 for much less than a TRD 4x4. Silverado after rebates and discount can be almost 10K off for a 2014 right now. About the same fuel economy, but more towing capacity, more room inside (if you get a full 4 door), and the ergonomics of the bed are pretty sweet.

Just a thought. Our company bought a new 4 door SXT with nice alloys for $29,900 (2 wheel drive, but the 4x4 was about $3k more). No way you will get a new TRD 4X4 for that.

Flip side would be resale value. The Tacomas do keep their value very well!

Yes, he will!

Yes, he will!

Ummm, TRD 4x4's start at 33,900????

Ya know, why even buy a truck? Get a Subaru and strap a deer to the roof if you need to! Lol
