Tacoma Stalking, er...uh, Spotting, with Charlie™ (4th Gen Edition)!

p

Proportionally it's not bad, but they stuck the bumper on too high, à la 'Brazilian Butt Lift.'
The fenders seem to be reaching out for any nearby tree. Something about the side window trim and the way the A-Pillar disappears into the front fender seems like someone sent ChatGPT off with the idea for "Toyota Tacoma, but newer"

That bodywork behind the wheel well is going to get a pretty good sandblasting. I'd want that clear wrapped before even signing the papers.
I have yet to see a real-world photo with a mud flap.

And your 3G looks damned good dirty on the beach!

 

Yeah not sure what they were trying to accomplish with all these lines. Fender flares are interesting, so is the top rear part of the roof. I saw one at my local dealer and was not impressed:


Thank you sir! She looks a bit different now but still likes to get dirty.

 

The wheels look like they're from a Frontier...

 

That’s funny.
My buddy said the Frontier wheels look like Tacoma knockoffs back in ‘22.
They definitely look really close though.

To keep the thread on track, the local dealer here has a few 4G’s lined up. I haven’t seen any around town yet.

As of last weekend, I’ve officially seen more Cybertrucks in the wild than I have 4G Tacos.

 

Was at the General Store in Death Valley last week and saw my first 4G in person. Yippee! It was a white SR5 Access Cab. (Though I believe the preferred nomenclature is Xtra cab.) So, I stood and stared. It didn't take long before I noticed that Hoover Dam piece of plastic hanging off the front end. "Okay," I thought, "get rid of that and it looks fine." I continued to stand and stare, then I walked around it, and stood and stared a bit more. Then, I walked away.

The one thought I came away with was, "From the B pillar back, that is one fugly truck!" Made me love my 3G all the more.

 

They're all ugly compared to the first gen but the fourth gen has the best interior.

 

Sacrableu!

I must disagree with you on that point, good sir, but I will concede that, yes, the best tacos are to be found in the SD (assuming we're talking about Mexican food and not Mexican trucks nor what's to be found between a lass' legs).

 

First one I've seen at Thompson Toyota...

That price…

My fully loaded 3rd gen was less


How does it look in person?

 

Holy Smokes! With tax that's almost a fifty thousand vehicle!

One thing I noticed in your pics is that the tail pipe is huge for a Tacoma. Interesting.

 

I prefer them in more eye-catching colors; I thought the white one was the only one at Thompson, but then I saw this orange one on the other side of the dealer property that appears to have been spoken for...

It's only an SR5 too...

 

I believe that this is the same truck, now a part of Thompson Toyota's loaner vehicle fleet...

What's that little white 90s Tacoma next to it?
