What do you DISLIKE about your Tacoma?

No front locking hubs, no transfer case shifter. I do like my truck, I’m just stuck in the past. It would be cool if they had all the fancy new tech stuff and the old 4WD setup. I do love the fully synchronized 6 SPD manual transmission,smoothy smooth.

 

I’d like if it sat a few inches lower, but it’s a good truck overall.

 

Doesn't have a Chevy LS motor.

 

plastic narrow truckbed, and that space between the seat and center console phone kept finder the spot like a magnet.

 

That’s a strange way to spell “Nissan RB26DETT“ motor.

 

Haha. That is an awesome motor also.

Seen this drop stop on here .Works good

 

The only thing I didn't like about my Tacoma, was it couldn't tow my rock crawler. Other than that, it was perfect. My Tundra is a close 2nd.

 

I love everything about my first generation 2.4 Tacoma except for having to use shims to adjust the valves.
I wish it had adjustable valves or hydraulic lifters.

 

I've put a LOT of miles on a number of cars with shim-in-bucket under cam, mostly things like Volvo, VW, and I don't think *ANY* of them *EVER* needed a shim until the engine was on its last legs, somewhere north of 250,000 miles...

 

I did VW diesels for years but I had the tools and assorted shims. My 130,000 mile 2.4 has one exhaust valve just under the limit at .009
all the other exhaust valves are .010 or .011......

P.S. I do know from checking all around here that nobody checks them or does them...maybe that should tell me something.

 

No Apple CarPlay and the backup camera resolution/Entune display is awful compared to anything else.

 

Needs IR fog lights, a lowlight HUD for a starlight camera, builtin radar and laser sensors, a chaff dispenser for speed traps, a periscope, carbonfiber honeycomb camper shell option from the factory, and labrador friendly split bench seats up front. Proper winch points, and a solar panel on the cab of the roof.

 

And a .50 cal mount for the bed rail system.

 

The payment.

 

Beat me 2 it
Welcome to taco world

 

I just bought a 2019 Tacoma Offroad. I previously owed a 2008 Tundra Limited that I loved. I really like the Tacoma so far, but what I first noticed is the lack of storage space. The console storage holds about 2 decks of cards. Where the Tundra had a huge console, two glove compartments and under rear seat storage. The Tacoma has storage behind the rear seat. But I just got the Tacoma and am still exploring. Nice rugged truck though.

 

No offense but what did you expect when you bought a smaller truck?

 

The side mirrors. You get a tow package and the truck only comes with the crappy little mirrors that are useless for towing.

 

I hate that the 2nd gen never came with black interior.
