3rd gen Tacoma Appreciation thread

3G Woot!

 

Where was first picture taken?

 

Thank you sir! She’s the SR though. 4 banger, No V6.

 

In the Cowichan Valley on Vancouver Island.

 

Thanks man! Have to add that to my list for this summer! Too beautiful!

 

PM me for the info you need to find this spot.

 

Thanks! I will for sure! I’m saving up for lots of trips this summer and from the looks of that place I’ll be adding that to my list!

 

Is that third picture on the Island as well. Almost looks like it could be the interior area or around Merritt. There are lots of places I would love to explorer on the Island.

 

The third photo is in the Chilcotins. No landscapes like that on the island.

 

One beautiful thing about this province is the great range of terrain we have in just a short drive. We truly are spoiled living here!

 

Yea so true! Every thing you could want.

 

Back in the day the sporty version of toyotas coupes with the 5spd MT and 4 cyl was called SR5. The name kind of stuck and a lot of folks liked it, so now they using as a badge for the "mid grade trim" of trucks and SUVs.

 

Wait, it didnt even smoke on that incline?

Is your truck ok?!

 

Ahh. Good to know, I’ll take it lol.

 

A hundred pounds of sand in the back and I’ve only had to use 4wd twice this winter!

 

This is really cool, thanks for sharing. And not to rub it in your face, but the OEM LED headlights and fogs are awesome. If you ever consider trying to add them and you're on the fence, you won't be disappointed. Maybe someone will release a wiring kit, but I'm not your guy. Lol.

 

Just did a 4-hour each way holiday road trip and thoroughly enjoyed the drive of this truck. Transmission shifted just fine, even speeding ~10 over the limit through the hilly Ouachita mountains area in SE Oklahoma. The adaptive cruse control is excellent and kept my foot from getting fatigued with constant slowing down and speeding up in traffic. The automatic bright dimming feature is super convenient, too. The hilly, curvy country highways were dark and had deer running around. The LED lights lit up the road and sides nicely. Android Auto play was handy throughout the trip. JBL sound was great. At one point I got up to 22 MPG, even! My old 2nd gen would've barely had a quarter tank left and this had over half.

Honestly this is the first time in a while that I genuinely *really* enjoyed the drive itself. I liked my last Tacoma, but now I love my new Tacoma.

 

A month and 1000 miles on mine and its been solid!

 

Happy customer. My biggest complaint would be the really uncomfortable seats, but I love it!

 

Nice pic! That sr grille looks really nice.
