2017/18 Taco TRD Pro - Daily driver?

It's a car. That's like saying GM should make the Colorado v6 the same HP as a camaro v6. Not gonna happen.

Just my 2 cents...

I'm 6 foot, and I don't have any problem with the seat height. I drive in pretty bad traffic sometimes with a standard and while the comfort isn't all that bad, the MPG sucks bumper to bumper. I'm not surprised when I get 13-17 MPG depending on how long I'm in heavy traffic. Road trip comfort is great IMO (I'm also coming from a crappy old Isuzu Amigo, so I'm a little biased). I have a 15-20 minute commute. You might have a little less comfort and fuel efficiency with the offroad suspension on the pro, but I doubt it will make much difference.

Honestly though? Totally worth it. I think the utility far outweighs the lack of fuel efficiency.
