    I took my taco to Montana from Wisconsin, and what a great trip. The tacoma was the perfect truck for the road. Good gas and comfortable.

    Our time in Montana was a mix of open roads and mountain climbing. The ECT PWR was a great feature to get up some trails to get around northwest MT. I had faith in the taco the whole time!!

    There's nothing like setting the cruise control at 90 MPH on I-90 through Montana! Mine does fine except for getting bad gas mileage.
