    If I didn't have a Tacoma, I'd buy it. I like the look :) Remember, guys, it's still a Tacoma and is still invincible. Wonder how much chopping is required now to fit 33s...?

    Yeah, me likey. Seems to mean a total redesign is in the near future. Wouldn't buy it yet, if I could, for the fact that mods might be difficult for such a new truck.

    Added extra awesomeness to its original awesomeness.
    Technically I'm not sure that this classifies as the 3rd gen. they did change the front end of the 1st gens mid way.

    Not really surprised considering how long Toyota took to redesign their pickup originally. The pre-tacomas were pretty damn close in design to 1st gen tacomas. Luckily they got rid of torsion bars and the 3.slow. But I wouldn't expect anything ground breaking any time soon. The current recipe seems to be working just fine for them. I see new Tacomas running around with dealer tags nearly every day in my small town.

    I don't like it. You would think they would have at least updated the wheels or trd graphics, they've been the same since 05. I was hoping for an all new model.
