    Good salesman, tacoma ftw,

    And no offense, I was just clarifying it from my opinion, sorry if it sounded wrong. Interesting info in the Rav 4s though, was looking at those for gf at one point, might just get her a 2wd taco and a softtopper to haul rescueanimals around.

    Missing My Last Tacoma --- Had 11 Toyota trucks in the past and many other Toyota cars too.
    .
    Very happy with gen. 3 Tacoma (with a few small issues) and would definitely buy it again without hesitation.

    I wish Toyota would put better radios and speakers in the trucks ... even my premium Entune w/ JBL in my last Tacoma was only "ok at best".

    Semi unrelated note, but every single person that has been in my truck has commented on how nice the interior is.

    Nope, I'm just really impressed by how much they improved the interior over the last gen. Tundra's too, ever since the face lift (2014?) their interior is massively better.

    The interior especially the off road Is fantastic!!! I really like the larger screen, much bigger than the 14 4 runner.

    the new sequoia interiors still look like the old (2013 and older) tundra interior. Really not a fan. The new Tundra has a really nice interior, but I like the Tacoma's more. The lines are cleaner and it's simpler yet still has everything. Also I fucking love vehicles that have a vent right on the top right and top left of the steering wheel to heat my hands in winter.

    The ergonomics of the steering wheel are outstanding. Better IMO than my wife's Lexus.

    That's a "characteristic of the vehicle" and if you mention it again you will be stoned to death . Now carry on.

    That, coincidentally, is also a characteristic of the vehicle.

    I like the truck alot, the only thing I would change is the dealership I bought it from, the piss poor service department at my dealership Luv Toyota is the only reason I regret trading my Xterra.

    Amen. I have over 13k miles on it and it runs like a swiss watch. Loved my Tundras but this is way more enjoyable to drive; wife is really happy with it. I get more compliments on this than any other truck I've owned. Have car wash by me that has unlimited washes for monthly rate, grin... Truck has plenty of everything, you just need to learn how to drive it. It is NOT a low end thumper like a diesel, but use of ECT and sport mode will give you a ride and a half.
