I went for a second test drive and I love the truck, but.......

Whaaaaaat?

 

LOL! Ferris Bueller? That was awesome. You got me there. I like you guys! That is why I am still here. Plus, I still believe that manufacturers watch the better forums and feedback does make it to them. I can only hope for a more fuel efficient Tacoma. One does not buy a Tacoma for its stout capability in payload or towing. It is a compromise truck, that is slurping fuel at a full size rate.
I agree, I think the Colorado diesel has enough issues that I have no interest. All the new diesels can make you go broke out of warranty. That is one thing the Taco has going for it for sure. C'mon Toyota, a little more leg room in the middle rear and another 2-3mpg.

 

@SwollenGoat has some cojones/the nerve of that guy...but he's just farting around!

You have utilized the 5ft-bed and for that...

I love you, man!

lol

 

get a trundra. Mine is a lot more fuel efficient than my taco was.

 

It is an old saying, maybe it doesn’t translate well to Canuckspeak? Did my best to convert it over to the metric system for ya…

I had about the same amount of room in my 2003 Honda Pilot (I know I keep talking/mentioning her).

With the 2nd & 3rd row seat down on the Pilot, it almost equated to what you got there with a cap on the Tacoma 5ft bed.

Even though it's only 1 ft longer, I figured I couldn't get it to fit in my 2-car garage.

Heck, the DCSB may just barely fit!

The additional rear legroom would be great.
I would be happy to maintain same mpg, but increase power/torque.

 

I’ll sleep back there on a cot for quick 2-3 day camping trips, another reason the LB works better. Though going to build a camp trailer this winter, so really not an issue. Still like the ACLB better, plus it looks cooler…

 

Now that's getting the most out of a five foot bed. Don't recall seeing that much stuff in a full size pickup. I too have a five foot and it does everything I need. That my man, is pure genius!

 

I can't argue about the extra foot in the bed. I put myself in there and could not get comfortable even diagonally and I'm 5'7".

But that's why I would consider a RTT and a Bed Rack...wouldn't matter the bed size!

 

Pfffft Junkhead gots nothin’ on the Thai.

 

I can show you how I utilize my RTT and my roof rack too…

 

Considered a RTT, have a Wildernest on my 1st Gen…discovered don’t really like having the camper or tent or what-have-you attached to the truck. Always want to run around after everything is setup. Cot is just to hold me over until I build my trailer.

 

One day I’ll learn how to stack like that…one day.

 

Lol!

Shoot @clydesdale should just get an ACLB or single cab f150 This is how they haul people in Thailand.

 

Thank you sir!

I used to load trailers in high school, hand bombed and used a forklift. I learned how to organize and stack items quite well haha! I had to load everything I was given, no questions asked.

 

You know I used to laugh at guys with RTTs. I slept in one and never gonna go back to sleeping on the ground.

Just a bit annoying hauling my 70 pound beast up there.
