    Michelin LTX MS Defender. 265-70-R16. It's a street tire, but 19 city/21.5 highway pretty consistently. And I have a pretty heavy foot.

    Never seen one 0 to 60 where the 3rd gen wins, I have seen the 1st gen win. If there's some new drag race data thats cool.
    I have KO2s/Canopy and get 18mpg on summer gas. Live where there's 1000 foot elevation difference between downtown and the upper burbs.
    6 years the truck has been awesome!

    Did you go with a bigger tire or something? I have Goodyear Duratracs which border on being mudders, and I frequently get 20+mpg city.

    Are Mexican Tacos as reliable as the ones built in Texas?

    is your tacoma a sport or offroad? i know my sons sport is a lot more firm and flat in corners then my offroad which has a much nicer ride but really leans in turns and "floaty" compared to his sport..

    Thanks for the input from everyone! Just wanted to make sure there wasn’t any issues I didn’t know about. I’ll test drive one and go from there. Short cab, long bed trd or. Probably put a set of Goodyear dura tracks on and call it good. That should handle the winter/hunting duties that I’ll do. I do like the lifted ones, big tires etc, but trying not to go down that never ending road.

    Absolutely, if not slightly better. Zero build quality issues with mine... no rattles, squeaks, leaks, misalignment of any sort, steering wheel is dead straight, headlights properly adjusted. I'm totally satisfied.

    Like, so many.
    I prefer my Tacoma, but Frontiers are probably the best value in the mid size market.

    I used to have a Frontier, and I still can't get over how long the current model has been out. I'm 34 years old, and the current Frontier came out the year I graduated high school. lol

    It's like stepping into a time machine with the Frontier, but in a good way. :D

    I don’t trust Nissan products. There’s a reason you can pick them up so much cheaper than Honda’s and toyotas
