    It's my first Toyota, I've wanted a Tacoma since the 1st Gen came out. 2018 I said screw it and traded my Ford in for the Taco and haven't regretted it.

    First Tacoma and happy with it. But I guess it's not my first Toyota since I own a 2005 Scion tC (Daily Driver until I bought the Tacoma) and a 2002 Lexus GS300 (Project Car).

    First Toyota and first Tacoma, I mostly owned Nissans before. It took me 10 years to buy a tacoma, kept looking for a good used one and they were hard to find, so I said screw it and bought new. I plan on keeping this truck a long time so this might be the last combustion engine vehicle that I ever own.

    My first taco 2019 trd sport dcsb 4x4 MT .
    Absolutely love it . Daily driver mostly on mountainous highways .
    Lots to like , mostly the mt with the 4.3 rear ,the cornering and on road articulation .
    The sure footed behavior in snow even with the oem toyos and 4x4 off .
    Love the powered rear widow , pretty much eliminated my ac use in summer .
    I find the ergonomics of the dials , buttons , dash lights , steering wheel controls
    Very user friendly . Happy with the TSS features
    Not thrilled with the super white choice , shows every little speck
    Of dirt and it's starting to fade/yellow on the plastic sheet under the rear door .

    Sounds like you might have gotten water under the clear protective film back there. Bring it up to the dealer next time. They should replace it

    2018 off road, V6 auto. 1st Toyota / Tacoma. In service since Sept 2018 as my daily driver and summer travel trailer hauler. Exceeds my expectations for this duty.

    Some quirks, no issues and no recalls (so far).

    Love it.

    I've been a fan of it so far. Only have about 750 miles into it so far but, it drives well enough. I think people just like to complain.

    I did test drive the 4 banger, but ultimately needed the crew cab. That being said the 4 and 6 drove similarly, so if the extended cab us what you want, the 4 is a great way to go.
