Changes noticed on the new Tacoma pictures.

1) Great new Stock Michelin MS2 tires. Keeping 18" rims (Motortrend is wrong).
2) Still no power rear window
3) No LED side mirrors
4) Integrated trailer wiring.
5) Bedcaps on top of bed
6) Lockable tailgate
7) tailgate spoiler
8) Sunroof
9) Backup sensors
10) Projectors
11) White 3rd brake light (bed light?).
12) Toyota stamped on tailgate handle

Lets keep this simple, we have enough threads cluttered with chit chat.

That being said, the more I look at it the more I like it, especially when I cant see the lower part of the front bumper. The side's have a very aggressive stance, and the rear looks great too.

 

I'll reserve judgement until i see the TRD versions. Despite all of the items you listed off, i still feel like the new models are not a major change but more of a bolstered version of previous gens. Not saying that's necessarily a bad thing, but definitely not what i expected based on the teasers indicating this was going to be a huge leap.

 

Add plastic turd on the dashboard

 

Same cab and inner bed. No rear disc brakes.

 

Keep in mind this is the Limited edition, lots of the things you see could be options.

 

Please tell me that is a daignostics readout.

 

the bed looks deeper

 

No fender mounted antenna.

Black B-pillars.

 

We don't know just yet that there's no rear power window but they did change the design of the rear glass

 

based on the look of the close up shot you can see the latch, most non-power rear sliders don't have a latch (Silverado, ford, tundra goes all the way down one piece etc.)

 

Autodimming mirror, glad they put this back, cheap asses.

 

Glad I don't have a 14' or 15' Tacoma

 

Forgot to point that out too (the tailgate handle) same like the tundra I see

Finally locking tailgate lol

 

I love my 15, but was in disbelief when I got home and saw I had a shitty ass corolla looking mirror on my $34k truck. Even my 2011 had a dim mirror.

 

I agree. With the 2nd gens the 'Limited' models are basically optioned up SR5's with some chrome, bigger wheels, and a few other things.

I'll hope that the TRD's will look somewhat different but I'm not holding my breath. I'm still looking forward to seeing the interior.

I get the feeling this is like what Toyota's been doing with the Corolla... same chassis but a few minor tweaks, with a different engine option, body panels, and interior. Nothing truly NEW.

Those of you hopeful about that auto-dimming mirror, I'm willing to bet it's special to the limited only. I could see Toyota pulling something like that.

 

All of a sudden I can't get that front grille out of my mind. Hope it looks better in person. It seems like it's protruding outward like an swollen wound or something. I want to put some ice on it. Now that it's stuck in my head, I just can't see it as cool.

 

Looks like a ram front end.

Those headlights look very similar to another little boxy cars headlights. It slipped my mind which though.

I like the rear look.

 

Here is a link to a news article about it:

No diesel. Check out the fuel door - same size. Nowhere to put the DEF.

 

No more mud flaps and this instead.
