    Today,after owning my new Tacoma 2018.
    I have 5000 kilometers,and from very first day,i thought that from 50 to 80, it was like ,Man really slow!!! Keep telling the guy who sold me the Tac,but again,we all know that it s not the 4 litter now,they did changed the motor, yes but still!!????
    Even felt like between 50 and 80 it sorts of like the motor was not taking it s gas..or simply sleepin and sometimes bucking !!!!!!!
    Today after work,i asked to try another Tacoma,based model,an2018 with 12 ,000 kilometers.
    Glad that i did,,,,to me,,night and day.
    At 50 or 60 ,,if you do give some accelaration,it goes,while mind sort of just sleeps.
    Friday,they are suppose to do a road test,and do someting hopefully about it..THEY BETTER!,
    What are your thoughts,for those who knows mechanics??

    between 50-80 mphs is actually the range that this engine EXCELS in... (low end torque is a different story).
