Isn't a 2016 Tacoma still a 2nd gen?

Dumbasses didn't have the ECT button engaged in the 3rd Gen, guarantee it. Besides, you have two vehicles relatively evenly matched, the driver makes a world of difference.

 

I got news for you: 1st gen has an ECT button too. Maybe they should both engage and rematch?

 

I'd like to see that, sure.

 

Iirc they were all n/a

 

Me too.

 

Outcome would be either the same or first gen sec gen worst gen

 

I did not buy my truck to drag race. I can tell you for sure there is no comparison to the response when I stand on the pedal at 60 mph between my 2016 and my 2004.

True.. if anyone buys a Tacoma because it's fast... hahaha, you bought the wrong vehicle.

 

The 1st gen in the video was a manual transmission. No ECT.
Would like to see that truck race a 3rd gen with a manual.

 

That is a valid point. I must've missed that. So rematch with both ECTs engaged and another with both manuals may be in order. Til then... be(1)st gen > turd gen

 

I'll give you a report in 11 years on the 2004 vs 2016. I will say my 2004 set the bar really really high.

 

I know that there are some major carry overs from the 2nd gen. With that said there are more differences the similarities. The 3rd gen represents the evolution of the Tacoma. I say this because if it were completely redesign as the Colorado was there would be no carry over from the second gen. Alibi not promoting the Colorado.
