    Live in LA so we never really get over 50 mph cuz of traffic.
    Happened to get to 70 last night coming home late from hospital and noticed it. Thought I’d ask a friendly question.

    My taco is quieter than my Lexus is300. Both road noise and wind.

    The "sporty" is300 has a barely audible engine and it sings a way better tune quiet and all.

    The taco 3.5 is loud as shit to me, And I personally dont like how the 3.5 V6 sounds. Maybe if it had a bit more power I wouldnt care at all lol.

    Besides the loud coarse engine, the 3rd gen taco aint too bad with noise

    Well my point was, all my Tacomas when getting over 70-75 and have a cross wind, the driver's door would whistle fairly loud. But that is all.

    Is a truck. That being said, mine is a little louder than my highlander, but it is way quieter than my 2012 Taco.

    You are being overly sensitive. But that’s not always bad. Sometimes girls like guys who are overly sensitive. Do you cry when watching rom coms?

    My taco is silent, compared to my previous truck (2007 Ford ranger) :D:D:D.

    Was actually very impressed how quiet it is on highway.

    Every question here starts a s$&tstorm. I think people are just angry pretty much? Haha.
    I think our 18 Sport is quieter than our old FJ or 17 4runner (both sold). Not bad for a truck. Dont remember how loud my 01 or 05 Tacos were but Im sure the 18 is better. Kind of think you have something going on if you think its loud actually. I just dont think Toyota is going to validate it for you. Good luck.

    Lol yeah. You can tell who was/is consistently friend zoned in their lives- Guys who are fanatical about floor mats, insistent about how for 40k these should have rotors in the rear, and the ones who carry detailing wipes for the interior.

    When I told my dealer “I wasn't no goddam beta”, they gave me $8000 off list, but they shorted me on the floor mats at the the same time.

    I've owned many cars including many luxury brands/models and Taco is noisier than most at higher speeds. It seems like it starts getting loud at 65mph+.
