Live 2016 Toyota Tacoma Stream and Discussion

I really like it actually. I dont understand peoples dislike of hard plastics in vehicles. Like honestly, are you rubbing your dick along the dash or something? Who gives a shit?

 

Can't handle the tail lights haha

 

The rear of the OR looks awesome, I'm not liking the front at all.

 

LMAO! i agree.. I mean if they are going to do that they could put some stick on velvet on the dash to rub with I really like the new dash. I think its modern, and people were already bitching because it "was gonna be the same" but obviously not. Ehh cant make everyone happy..

 

I agree completely. Make the things I'm going to touch or lean on often out of something soft but everything else should be hard and durable. That's what a truck should be good at.

 

That's when next years models have always generally come out.

The current 2nd gen TRD Offroads do have painted flares

In the fall when the 2016s are released and they need to make space in the lot for them.

 

D4D is on the new 3.5L along with the Atkinson cycle. It's on the Toyota website.

 

This literally made me bust out laughing in the middle of the office. Too funny.

 

The tail lights on the TRD are much better. I'm hoping the "altezzas" are either cut or only on the limited.

 

The Tacoma keeps getting uglier and uglier. I'll stick with my 2002 4X4 Tacoma.

 

I'll get one in 2 years probably.

 

bye bye....

 

The 2GR-FSE engine is rated at 309 PS (227 kW; 305 hp) at 6,400 RPM and 38.4 kg·m (377 N·m; 278 lb·ft) at 4,800 RPM. The 2GR-FSE in the Crown is rated at 315 PS (232 kW; 311 hp) and 38.4 kg·m (377 N·m; 278 lb·ft) at 4,800 RPM. The 2GR-FSE in the Mark X is rated at 318 PS (234 kW; 314 hp) and 38.7 kg·m (380 N·m; 280 lb·ft) at 4,800 RPM. The engine's service weight is 174 kg.


The 2GR-FSE is a 3.5L engine used in the Lexus IS, GS 350, Mark X and Crown incorporate Toyota's latest D4-S twin injection fuel system. This system combines direct injection(949cc/min injectors) with traditional port injection (298cc/min injectors). Direct injection lowers the tendency to knock (detonation) and increases performance by reducing the charge intake temperature. Traditionally direct injection engines require an in engine mechanism such as swirl ports or specific piston crown shapes to increase tumble in the engine. These are in place to help achieve a homogeneous air-fuel mixture inside the cylinder at low rpm and high load, these mechanisms inhibit performance at higher rpm. In the 2GR-FSE the port injection is used considerably to achieve the correct mixture without having in engine restrictions, meaning the engine achieves specific power near the top of all naturally aspirated production gasoline engines in the world (67kW/L, 235kW in the Mark X). Toyota also developed a new type of injector for this engine. The dual fan spray pattern of the direct injectors is perpendicular to the piston travel with wide dispersion in the cylinder helping improve in cylinder mixing and therefore power and efficiency. The port injectors not only help improve the power and efficiency but they also help improve emissions especially in the first 20 seconds after start up (when the catalytic converter is in its warm up stage).

I was going to say great post until I saw that you cut and paste it

 

Ha! Agree. Im good with a hard plastic lower dash. I really like the looks. But im good with my 2011 for awhile.

 

Wow!

That interior on the limited is sexy. I always disliked how cheap the interior on a Tacoma looked in the past.

 

Feeling a lot better about getting my 2014 at this point.

New look isn't bad, especially the interior. Nothing to get too excited about though.

I am curious about the engine specs when they finally come out. However, the 1GR-FE does the job quite nicely for me, plus gasoline is only $1.75/gallon right now!!

I didn't buy my truck for fuel economy, anyway.
