    Tacoma is very strong and favorite in mid-size truck market. Yet, GM has a plan to take on the Tacoma with Chevy Colorado. What do you think Toyota could improve in Tacomas to stay strong in the competition? Or let's name 3 things we like about our Tacomas the most.

    Chevy and GMC are up against huge competition.

    Nice click bait website you have there.

    I'll never buy a pickup with a car engine in it, whether it is a Toyota or GM both engines lack the torque the dated 1GR-FE delivers.

    I'm actually hoping Ford does follow through with bringing the global Ranger to the US. If they at least make the 2.3l Ecoboost an option neither the Colorado or Tacoma stands a chance in either performance or fuel efficiency.
