    now looking at it 600 bucks not bad, slider
    interesting, so Toyota thinks hitting the trails (what trail edition intended to do) you do not need a locker, mtm, and crawl control

    FYI to all you folks who support USA built Tundras/Tacomas. Starting 2021 they will move all Tacoma productions to Mexico. So buy your Tacomas now while you can

    Some people are dumber than they believe themselves to be. The Baja plant is highly awarded.

    If anybody thinks the product line of a global corporation varies from one plant to the next then you clearly don’t understand how the world works. Mexican made Tacoma’s are no different than domestic.

    Maybe between US and Mexico they are not much different, but even on TW there's a consensus that 4runners, which are made in Japan, are better built than Tacomas.

    My guess is that even with the uniformed global automated production line, even if the workers were trained identically, their individual performance will be different, and that play a part in the final product's level of fit and finish, precision, and chance of defects.

    If we can have robots build vehicles 100% with no human touch, I can safely agree that manufacturing location doesn't matter

    This is not true. From my understanding anything built after May (excluding the 20 PRO) are already being made in Mexico. If you go on cars.com or any Toyota dealership just check the Vin Number. If it starts with a 3 your Taco is authentic Mexican if it starts with a 5 you're safe with USA grade beef lol

    I would tell ya our Tacos made in the US aren't made with US parts. Yes it was assemble in the USA but the parts are not. I say the 3rd gen Tacoma parts are 40% Chinese, 10% Japanese, 20% elsewhere Asia, 20% Mexico, and 10% USA

    I bet that the next gen 4runners will be made alongside 4th gen Tacomas, because they probably share a lot of components once Toyota bring up their TNGA-F platform. So most likely in Mexico
    They already confirmed that new Tundras and Sequoias (who buys that? at that price I rather just get a land cruiser) are being built in San Antonio

    Nope, a reputable YouTuber stated Toyota will move all production starting 2021. There are still Tacomas out thats made in Texas after 05/2020.

    Fun fact too for the 2021 model. Long beds are now optional on the Limited trim.
