Price is insane, 46K for the basic package and their dealers still have mark ups and additional accessories that are not optional. It’s a 50K+ for a kid size truck. Hopefully they won’t be able to sell lots of them for those ridiculous prices.
So you are telling me it’s okay for this basic truck to be 46K, plus the dealer mark up and additional accessories they put, you are the problem. Can you imagine how much they are going to ask for the TRD Pro or the Trail Hunter? I guess you are willing to pay whatever the dealer ask 😂
@joseg.5937 bro are you some kind of idiot. This isn't new for Toyota. Even the 3rd gen tacomas were massively overpriced and had markups and unnecessary add ons. And yes people will pay for Toyota. That's why all midsize truck sales combined don't even beat the tacoma in sales.
@joseg.5937 you have to be dumb. This isn't new for Toyota. People will pay for this truck the price doesn't matter. Thats why the tacoma sells more than all other midsize trucks combined.
I have a 2022 tacoma sr5 v6. Just drove from Texas to Florida averaged 26 mpg over a 12 hr drive. 22mpg in the city. That 4 cylinder should do way better
You can get JBL audio, heated seats/steering wheel and wireless phone charger on the SR5...but no power seats or dual zone climate control. Power seat/dual zone climate control isn't even standard on the OR. It's weird.
Just got the same truck. It came with the added cold weather package, tow hitch and a few other goodies. Came out of a TRD OR. I miss nothing the old truck had honestly save the locker which I never really used. It was more of a piece of mind thing for me. Pricey yes but there were no alternatives for me. Nissan, Ford and Chevy were just not options for me based on past experiences. Pay now or pay later IMO. As far as the truck itself goes, I think Toyota did a really nice job with it so far.
I must be blessed by the gods because I have a 2020 Pro and I do 99% city driving and 1% highway and I constantly get 17 mpg. If I do take a trip and do highway only I get 24 mpg easily. I can spin the tires coming out of say a parking lot onto the street. The ride is soft and yet firm with my leaf springs. My transmission doesn’t hunt up and down. It did a little when it was new but after around 200 miles it stopped. I have the 6 cylinder engine. And I paid around $49,990.00 with side steps and a 10 year/100000 warranty! That’s out the door and in my garage. I must be blessed.
The six speed hunts if you drive on hills. You must be driving on flat roads. You only notice that on hills on highways. Your seating position sucks, n questions about it
@@paulm6481 Not true my friend. I live in North Carolina and it’s nothing but hills! Hills to go to the doctor, hills to go to eat, hills to go to friends and relatives houses, home center, gas stations. Hills hills hills. In fact I’ve never seen so many hills and twisting roads in my life. Seating is only hampered by the inability of the steering wheel to extend more than an inch and very little tilt but the seat is fine for me and I’m average height of 5’11” Like I said, blessed.
@@paulm6481 All you have do is put it in S (locks out overdrive) and press the ECT button (aggressive map.) It is more fun and only costs you 1mpg. With spacers and proper tires this SR5 will get worse mpg than my 2020 TRD Sport.
I was watching another car channel and suddenly remembered that "WRX" guy that reviewed random cars I used to watch years ago. Could not find your channel for a while. Finally fund it by chance looking for old wrx reviews lol.
Really interesting to see how pre-production interiors are put together. Like others mentioned I think even for all you're getting (and inflation considered) 46k is a tough pill to swallow.
My truck is a 2023 Tacoma SR5 4x4 with 6,800 miles on it and I am very happy with it, personally I think this 2024 model is kind of rude style. Still a great truck though.
I don’t get the complaints about price. A Chevy Colorado Trail Boss is 41k and you get halogen headlights, no cruise control, basically 0 safety features, plastic everywhere on the inside. I don’t know if everyone thought a brand new truck from the ground up was going to be cheap, new platform, engine, interior, transmission, everything is new plus all the safety features, those don’t come free. I mean a fully loaded Camry can push into the 40k mark easily, fully loaded Corollas are 30k-31k, I mean a fully loaded Prius will solidly run you about 39k-40k. So idk why a pickup truck would be cheaper. All midsize trucks are more expensive. A GMC Canyon tops out at 75k. The only “cheap” midsize truck is the Frontier and that’s because it is a re-skinned version of the same truck that was sold for 10 years.
Excellent video and great analysis on the value of the trims! Even the low MPG wasn’t too bad for what type of vehicle that is, my 2023 Tiguan gets about 10-11 MPG on short city drives where it doesn’t get to warm up properly 😂
@paulm6481 tf you talking about? GM Financial doesn't finance people with bad credit....Toyota Financial does, in fact Toyota is one of the easiest brand of cars to get.
I like tacomas a lot too, I just don’t like how they’re so common, like everyone has them everywhere I go. But if I were to get one I’d go for the Sport trim.
SR5 trim was, back in the days, the trim to get, the sporty trim you were excited and proud to own. Now it means nothing but of course Toyota has no shame banking on the trim past history. Oh they are not the only one doing it, Ford is a good example with their Platinum Double Titanium Plated trims they try to push at insane pricing. Darn Product Planners...
The price is higher but i dont think ppl understand how much better these are, plus it has a twin scroll turbo for a wider powerband. This isnt a kia turbo 4, toyota uses really high quality stuff and the 4 cylinder will be easier and cheaper to repair than the v6, think about the labor in a v6 tacoma front timing cover, a 4x4 is like 18-20+ hours labor, the 4 cylinder will be 6-8 hours labor. The turbo 4 makes way more low end power it feels like driving a v8. Overall I was super impressed after test driving one.
I’ve always wanted to buy a Tacoma. Not actually needing a pickup and having a family kept me in family sedans for the last 25 years. Now that the kids are grown I thought it time to make the Tacoma purchase happen. Um no….not at those prices. Actually, all pickup trucks seem to be priced way higher than they should be. Instead I just bought a 24 Sonata N line for 35K and couldn’t be any happier.
Ngl… the Colorado might really gain some market share in this generation. It looks way better and you get more for your money. With this new Tacoma powertrain we’re kinda starting with a clean slate in terms of reliability.
I agree with the author, forget a SR5 package, go up in trim. I ordered the SR5 as it comes; I will install my own ITBC from off my 2021, and the other stuff wasn't worth $3700 to me.
Is it just me or pick-up trucks look awesome with long beds(of course xcluding performance ones like Raptors,Trd-pros,at4s,ZR2s etc)??.I love em with long beds TJM😂
All the trucks in this segment are close in price. Not like you'll get a long bed Colorado for cheaper. Long bed Colorado doesnt even exist so you'll get a short bed similar spec midsize for a similar price.
Any thoughts on the back seat size? Or maybe one of your other Taco reviews talk about it? I'm leaning towards the 6th gen 4runner over the new Taco to get a roomier back seat experience.
I cover the back seat space in my full review (linked at the end of this one) but yeah 4Runner is probably gonna be better if you want a nicer back seat.
The GMC Canyon Elevation trim with 430 ft lbs and a modern interior looks better than this. If I could afford the TRD Pro it would be another story. Also, how long will I have to wait to get one? Probably 6 more months at the slow rate they are being produced.
46 grand for a low end compact is ridiculous. If they at least added 6 inches to the rear so it could actually be mid sized it could at least be competitive
2024 Tacoma 18.2 gas tank vs 3rd gens with 21.1 gas tank..meaning you will be making more gas station stop , and almost the same MPG’s.. Still NO gas hood struts..Why? Maybe to keep the cost of the Tacoma lower and save weight.. Amazon sell lots of Tacoma hood struts ..because Tacoma owners want this feature.. The 2025 will be come out soon…for those who are looking? Wait for the 2025…
Whatever dealer he used was not good at all, I got a 2024 trd off-road fully out the door with option package for 49.5. Not sure what crack the dealer is on for somebody to buy a 45k+ sr trim
Idk what to believe lol I've seen so many reviews of this truck and for this guy to say "I've never really like driving the 3rd Gen Tacoma" is kinda nuts. He has to be a paid Toyota. But good review!
I’ve never been paid for a car review. The last gen Tacoma’s powertrain (especially the transmission) was super annoying to me. Here’s my review of the old one from 5 years ago if you don’t believe me lol: ua-cam.com/video/En-emSfctmQ/v-deo.html
What haha 😂 if you go up in trim you don't get better features for free, other then suspension. You still need to add another 5k for the screen,JBL,leather seats with heated steering wheel.
Is this truck not being assembled using lower cost labor in Mexico? The day of reckoning is coming when manufacturers will have to innovate to produce vehicles at prices the consumers can afford. The problem is as follows: Toyota (and others) want a certain profit per unit and to accomplish this need to push the consumer into increasing more expensive vehicles. I have no doubt U.S. consumers are prepared to purchase vehicles like the Suzuki Jimny (closed vehicle and truck chassis) to get the out of door price to $25-30K and will forgo luxuries as a trade-off.
Colorado ZR2 gives you way more value for the money. There’s really no comparison. Toyota got greedy with this truck. They’re doing the same thing Honda is doing. Offering less vehicle for a higher price.
Tons of road noise, cheap interior, worse fuel economy than a full size truck and the same or equal price. I think toyota went off the deep end with this generation, curious to see if this retains a huge sales lead.
Waste of time and money" I'll stick to my 2021 Tacoma TRD Sport V6 3.5L, power seats with rear leaf springs and a 21.1 gas tank and rear window. The new 2024 Tacoma only has a 18.1 gas tank wich it means more gas stops on long trips. By the way leaf springs brings more stability and capacity load to a truck when towing and stronger (weather), suspension especially on the rust belt states. If I want to buy a sport car then I buy a Toyota Supra. Finally Turbo charge engines don't last as much as regular engines and they are way more expensive to maintain due to more mechanical parts involved.
@AdmiralFroggy Got it. Then you also don't have leather, heated seats, or JBL, since none of those are offered on the access cab (& because all of those things are bundled in the same TRD Premium Package). Your Tacoma isn't loaded, or even close to "fully loaded." Nothing wrong with your truck, but pretty misleading comment man.
@@sawyermartin4434 I don't know what you are trying to prove. I don't need to be proving anything to strangers nor am I going to argue because I have them and that's kind of that. You can accept the reality or not. Lol

What year is your tacoma
Your tires must be bald af.
you should probably change the oil

Sweet looking truck, the only issue is the price man, damn, I am worried when we get the new Hilux.
Toyota is offering Long beds in every truck i think it’s the best thing have Bigger bed
Now way in hell ill ever pay $46k for a damn mid size truck. Now the middle class is priced out of midsize trucks
23 limited is 47k. These prices are stupid high…
Price per sq ft for this small truck is ridiculous. Toyota got extremely greedy.

Does it come with a rear locker with the SR-5 4x4 model?
So, if it were your money (and I know you've driven the new Ford) would you go with this or with the new GM midsize trucks?
If it were my money, between the two I’d go with the Toyota for the better resale value and possibly better long term reliability.
Nice Truck but I sure wish Toyota would offer it in a single cab short bed. 😕
46k for an SR5. Just get a 23 Tundra at that point

My fully loaded 2023 sport 4x4 was $40k out the door lol
Your Sport has the TRD Premium package with leather, heated seats, JBL sound system, moonroof, 360 panoramic view camera system, etc.?
@@sawyermartin4434 everything but the 360 camera and moon roof because I wanted the access cab.
@AdmiralFroggy Got it. Then you also don't have leather, heated seats, or JBL, since none of those are offered on the access cab (& because all of those things are bundled in the same TRD Premium Package). Your Tacoma isn't loaded, or even close to "fully loaded." Nothing wrong with your truck, but pretty misleading comment man.
@@sawyermartin4434 I don't know what you are trying to prove. I don't need to be proving anything to strangers nor am I going to argue because I have them and that's kind of that. You can accept the reality or not. Lol
@@sawyermartin4434Thank you. These commenters are often full of it and dumb ignoramuses.
Always chiming in with silly quips, easily debunked with logic. "Fully loaded" my butt.
Typical annoying broTaco owners, you see sht posting on Tacomaworld and Reddit.
