Future Tacoma Engine Options

No shit.


Slojam... Take a fucking chill pill.
My current 2.7 is the only 4 cylinder that I've driven since 2002.
I haven't had a speeding ticket since 1990... and I do NOT drive the limit... and I used to average 45k/year, so it's not like I'm only driving 5 miles a day to the office.
How you drive, how you look, and how your vehicle looks has more to do with whether or not you get tickets than how fast you drive.

 

My opinion Toyota should take the 2.7L 4 cylinder and direct inject it, dual variable valve timing, beef up the bottom end, turbo charge it and get rid of the 6 cylinder. Look what GM has done with the Buick GS 2.0L turbo charged, 270 hp at 5300rpm and 295ft-lbs at 2400rpm. And also have the 2.7L naturally aspirated for those who don't want the turbo.

 

I say twin turbo v6 diesel, With long-travel from the factory. they could call it the T-rex.

 

oh god not this again

 

Oh jee I wonder who left me the negative rep and couldnt muster the balls to leave their name. Hmmm uhh Duh. Easy enough to figure that out.

 

Forget a vw diesel just drop a 4 bt cummins in it single turbo and a 6 speed it would ne unstopable bestruck ever im thinking about building one

 

I'd never buy a NA 4cyl truck myself. Nothing against them just not my cup of tea. Its mildly amusing that it was suggested you have poor money management skills if you dont buy a 4cyl.

Whats with the influx of new people who dont even own a Tacoma acting like asshats. Theres been a few lately.

 

Definitely going to have to agree with the Cummins turbo diesel or I could settle for any turbo diesel. I think that would be the perfect combo with the Tacoma IMO.

 

I'm leaning back to get getting the 4cyl RC with 2wd. GAS is getting too dam expensive to get a truck where I would probably use 4wd a few days out of the year and a V6 that costs more to maintain and the initial upfront cost. We all have to do the speed limit so being able go quicker off the line to get to the next red light doesn't make sense. Why pay all of that extra dough for a v6 to have to pussy foot around town to save MPG is retarded (No offense to retarded people on here). I once had a 1991 Nissan Frontier 4cyl 2wd auto King cab and I loved it, that truck really took a beating hauled tons of shit and kept on trucking. From what I hear on here is the base model rc is capable of averaging 25 mpg.

I'm close to making a decision on pulling the trigger on a used early 2nd gen 4cyl RC 2wd with 50k-60k miles in the price range of $8k-9k. I initially was going to get a brand new 2012 V6 AC 4x4 for $27k cash but after careful consideration and looking at the current state of the economy and gas price increasing I've come to the realization that I'd rather see the many extra thousands of dollars in my bank account rather than looking at a loaded truck sitting in my driveway and realizing I can only do the speed limit and will only use 4wd on a few snowy days out of the year. Is $17,000 more + more maint costs + more ins costs+ more gas costs worth the bragging rights and the little extra utility the V6 4x4 provides? Hell no. I'm a business man and that does not make business sense.

Even if I wanted to off-road, only a fool would off-road in a brand new truck. Most of the off-roading I've ever done was a dirt road in the mountains that a 2wd can do. Honestly, I'd rather do my off-roading on a dirt bike which is the reason I'm buying a p/u truck in the first place, so I can haul it in the bed instead of using a stupid trailer.

So if a 2006 rc 2wd is as good as the 91 king cab I had then I'm sold.
