4th Gen Tacoma (2024+)

The Ranger has plastic oil pans?

Just wondering how many here would lose their shit if those were on a Toyota. I ain't happy with the plastic gas tank, and not looking forward to this further high tech.

 

Just checked Fuelly for any 4th gens...nada. Hoping some of you new owners chart your mileage for a few tanks to give us a sense of what to expect.

 

The SR5 I test drove was reporting 10.5 MPG. Not joking. I guess it had a lot of idle time.

 

Apparently that earth quake the other day in Taiwan caused them to shut down a semi conductor plant for 2 weeks...I hope this doesn't cause issues again

 

On a side note the 4 runner will be shown April 9th...has the roll down window still as well
Odd they are only doing a couple teaser photos though. The Tacoma went on for a month lol

 

Looks like TFL got a Ranger Raptor

 

Says it has heated & cooled seats...there's no cooling. Says the seats are bigger and takes up some rear seat leg room (just like the Pro Iso seats - which do have cooling).

Dual glove boxes. Didn't know it had that. I like.

"E" shifter moves into detents like a normal shifter. I thought it was just spring loaded to move a little forward and backward. Still an odd shape but not as bad as I thought it would be.

Acknowledges that most people won't be able to buy it for sticker price like they did.

 

Yes, and a plastic oil drain plug too. Mustang s550 is the same way.

 

FX4 has steel skid plate and plastic oil pans. TRD OR has steel pans and plastic (composite) skid plates. I guess upgrading to an aftermarket skid plate is easier than swapping out oil pans.

 

Just watching the video....looks like a lot of cheap plastic in the truck as well...like all other manufactures. Being able to change the steering feel, dampeners, and exhaust sound is pretty cool. I am surprised there are no grill lights.

 

If you are in high school and have a GT, or Shelby Mustang. All the kiddos in my area love that loud shit.

 

Still have trouble with the vertical display. I'm more of a wide screen guy.

 

The screen also seems pretty laggy to me. This would drive me crazy.

Around 10:30 mark.

 

Guy on t4g says he has a Pro allocation and it has $5900 worth of add ons. Here is the cost of the options.

Mud guards - $60
Roof Rack - $1199
Door Edge Guards - $155
Spray on bedliner - $575
Rigid Fog lights - White/Yellow - $700
Tailgate Insert - $99
Console Safe - $395
Integrated Dashcam - $499
Trailer Camera - $1550
Door Panel Scuff Protectors - $135
Bed Scene Lighting - $599

 

I thought Rigid fogs were standard equipment on Pros? Or do we think the White/Yellow is the $700 upcharge?

 

Looks like on the Pro the combo lights will be an upcharge.

 

Yeah, saw that on Instagram.

I'm surprised the Tacoma iForce MAX models have not been revealed yet.

 

Easily going to be $65k+ absolutely insane for a midsize
