Tacoma to ZR2 and back to Tacoma, Zach's Story

Hey, it's personal taste & choice. With a nicely equipped Yukon in my other garage bay, I thought I'd love the ZR2, you know, already accustomed to the GM look/feel/fit/finish. I drove a couple Tacomas (Sport, OR, Limited) and thought, yeah this is a pretty nice mid-size truck. Drove the ZR2 fully expecting to make a deal and drive it home but just didn't love it (or even really like it much). Definitely not in the same league quality-wise as the Yukon. Drove a Taco OR again and was immediately impressed at how much better it felt and how much easier to daily drive it seemed it would be (for me) than the Colorado. Stumbled onto a Pro unexpectedly and never gave the ZR2 another thought. Sure, it's a great truck for some, just wasn't for me. No regrets with my Pro and even if I change my mind at some point, I'll be glad I'm trading in a Pro rather than a ZR2. Don't see that happening anytime soon... Loving my Taco!

 

How about the steering wheel coating that comes off almost immediately on the Tahoe.

 

So how much money did you lose on this deal? Just curious

 

I heard the same shit from Toyota with my 2016 about 15 times too. Just traded it two days ago for year old Colorado Z-71 Duramax Diesel. I guess we’ll see. Best of luck, safety, and happiness to all

 

looks like my truck but mine is white and no topper. I think all these brands are the same anymore and some for sure hold value better as does the Tacoma. That said it is still what you like and which is most comfortable and so on. They all can have issues if you get one that does. Mine is 2 years old end of this month and 53k miles on it and other than early on sensor and now i have recall i havent done yet it has been good truck.
