    First time Tacoma owner. Few weeks of ownership under my belt. White SR5 DCSB 4x4 v6 auto in white. Spent over 29 years driving two Dodge trucks and two Chevy trucks ( 1989 2wd slant six manual and 1998 4wd At club cab then two Chevy 2013 and 2015 both 4wd v8 double cabs) First time I owned a Toyota truck.

    I didn't need a full size truck any longer and truthfully had my mind set on a Colorado. Was disappointed when they came out, did not like the cabin (felt cheep to me) wasn't crazy about the outside either but hey looks are subjective.

    So far no real bitches with the 2019. Does it have the room and power of the 2015 Silverado nope. Is it more enjoyable driving/parking it on the over crowded North Jersey roads yes it is.

    For me its white from now on. My 2013 silverado was black and when clean was sharp. Trying to keep it that way was silly time consuming. 2015 silverado was white and much easier to keep clean

    Good move! Yours has the power sliding rear window? My 17 SR5 does not.

    Nice lookin truck -- you sound a lot like me thinkin wise. I had a f150 --wanted smaller . Thought about white -- always a easy resale and easy to keep clean. My wife is on her 4th white car in a row -my f150 was red. I really was hooked on the BBP when I saw that -Glad I got it when I dis as they have discontinued that Blue. I really don't care for the other blues.

    Congratulations mate! I'm glad to hear that you're loving it. Do you have any plans for her?

    That's awesome.

    Around two months of ownership 2200 miles. All is well, drives good...no rattles tight little truck. Can it use a little more low end snap yep. But overall no other cons so far. Averaging 19/20 mpg in mixed driving

    No cons with mine as well but I'm just under 700-miles and averaging 20.5 MPG's with very little highway driving. Runs tight also and is good in the snow. Leaving a 2005 4-Runner for the Tacoma, I sure do miss that low-end torque but great otherwise. Congratulations and good luck with your Tacoma.

    I did same thing for the same reasons! Traded my beloved 2006 dc tundra for the Tacoma, I love the way it noodles into parking spots and in tight spaces compared to my tundra! Gas saving at the pump as well. But ya, v6 on the pedal sounds and feels weak compared to a v8, but knew that going in
