2016 White DCLB TRD Sport followed me home

Well, I had a short-bed on order - due to build in a month. But I drove by the dealer today and they had the same truck in a long bed - just asking for test drive. Of course I did (the first), and used my prior trade-in deal to move to the long bed. Still getting used to it as it's my first Tacoma, but so far I'm loving the new ride. Turning radius is better than I expected, and the ride is very nice. Cabin is tight and quiet. The 6-speed auto will take some getting used to, but hopefully it smooths out and Toyota refines the shifting.

 

Good move with the long bed!

 

Congrats, how does the engine feel?

 

What's the turning radius

 

As others have noted, it definitely needs some RPM's to come on the power. I tend to vary the RPM's quite a bit through break-in so won't even try to get a MPG read until about 1k.

 

Made a U-turn on a 3 lane and easily hit the right lane.

 

^ This. I test drove a 16 SR5 DCLB 2wd. It was fine on regular driving but to feel power, you would definitely need to be above 4K rpms.

Cabin is noticeably quieter than a 2nd gen and suspension felt stiffer.
I can honestly say that it is a nice truck, big grill and all. It doesn't seem as big in person.

 

It's the distance required for a vehicle to make a turn as measured from a center point to the arc the vehicle makes as it negotiates the turn

 

I don't understand. I'm no math teacher

 

need to take better pics w/o the crappy background

 

Looks really nice.

 

Congrats!

 

Congrats! Enjoy your new truck!

 

Nice truck! First one I've seen with mud flaps. I'm starting to get used to the auto as well. Shifts more often than I would like.

 

It's a brand new truck!Enjoy!

 

Nice truck long bed looks good

 

Looks great in a LB.....I should have ordered that . I can fit it in my garage with 30" to spare 18 of which are front cabinets.

Maybe its just the white....I am glad I ordered white. The 16 Tacoma wears it well.

 

Wow very nice! Love it
