    I still don’t understand the big upset between buying a Japanese truck made in the US or a Japanese truck made in Mexico when both are built with the exact same parts...

    Well the original idea was Not all imports come in as complete vehicles from Japan Sam had to be made & built here in the USA to give USA workers jobs from parts suppliers to assembly and distribution of parts they closed the Califorina numi plant & moved them to Texas along side of the tundras now they are moving all Tacoma’s again to Mexico not helping USA workers building them is it.

    The tundra & the sequoia will now be built at the Texas plant nothing wrong with it being built in Mexico it’s still a Toyota in the END only pointing out last chance for a USA made one just like in 2009 i got the last year Tacoma was made in freemont Califorina USA it’s like a collectors item

    Welcome to TW! I'd actually prefer if they made/assembled the Tacomas in Japan.

    Yes that is what I said as my first choice they didn’t have any problems when all were imported from Japan 2nd choice was here in the USA to keep USA auto workers jobs but it caused more recalls in having them built here for sure some of that I believe is the people who help build them here may not like a Japanese brand & not put as much care into them being built in the Midwest or south now all the Tacoma’s will be built in Mexico we know why cheaper labor cost & that comes with cost in your product in my opinion.
