can a 2016 owner do a 0-60 test?

Touché' outkast

 

Well....the next time they pull up next to a much heavier 4Runner from 2003 on, with the old 4.0 just slightly more enhanced since 2010..with no Atkinson, no direct injection , and old five speed auto which gets only one fewer mpg highway and city and simply wastes the 2016 Taco coming off the line at a stop light, they will begin to wonder, wtf is the advantage of this shit Camry motor ?

I guess "life style" now means we are going back to the flower child days with motors with the performance of a VW bus.

 

Well.....we do know the EPA mileage..it ain't nothing to write home about.

 

A better question after reading this is.. Can it do truck stuff as good as the 2nd gen....

 

Truck stuff includes panty dropping lol....

This is a truck I would happily take home.

Add a tune and I can forget completely about the big difference in handling compared to my current car.

I know that some people dont care about acceleration. I do care.
I love the push into the seat feeling. You can have fun without breaking the law.

Going back to the main topic who will be the first to post a 0-60 run?

 

My brother in law is the sales manager at my Toyota dealer and he ordered my taco for me. So I do feel an obligation to him to purchase it regardless, however I am still going to be calling my local Ford dealer and ask them about pricing on the F 150 with a 3.5 liter EcoBoost just to see.

I was a licensed road racer for 7 years (and I raced at the expert level for 6 of those years)so the feeling of good acceleration is something that is very important to me whether I need it or not.

 

2nd Generation, still the best

 

The specs for my 2103 PreRunner Double Cab say its curb weight is 3950. The 2016 TRD Sport DC is 4180. Am I looking at the wrong thing? I don't see the 950 pounds you speak of.

 

FTFY

 

Really doesn't factor into my buying decision, I'll be getting a Tacoma if it's 5 seconds or 10 seconds.

 

Call to get a price? How old are you? lol. Get it online?

 

Planning on painting flames on it... and want to know how big they should be. As legit as anything posted...

 

Thats terrible. My 2nd gen 2.7 with auto trans was always a dog and still is. 290k miles and shes still ticking. Just a slow poke. If 3rd gen is slower, i feel their pain

 

Old enough to know that i can call to get a ball park idea if the current discounts being offered will get me where id like to be. Ive been buying new cars every 3 years for many, many years. Go troll somewhere else kid.

 

Good for you, so whats the point of your post? Just trolling like 75% of this forum?

 

it's not... the version i checked was about 300 pounds heavier.

 

point was made, the 0-60 doesn't factor into my decision. seemed pretty obvious to me.

 

Its obvious you only wanted to add your $.02 as my question wasnt if anyone else factored that into their buying decision. The question was will a new owner try a run and post the time. "Obviously" that went over your head.

 

Welcome to the internet. Opinions related to or not related to your post/topic will be made. "Obviously" THAT went over your head.
