Thanks for the video! 4 month/ 3900 mile owner of 4th gen off road and 23 fff road 3rd gen. No issues yet on ther 4th gen (not even the dreaded active grill (knocking wood)!

Unfortunately, the hater videos from non owners get more views, but thanks for doing the video!

Always do your best and have fun. Never quit when you still have something to give. It's not a funeral, make some noise. Remember that you can't make everyone happy and if you do, then you are not doing your job right. @@teamoildrop
Great video. After seeing all the hate videos and stuff (which I refuse to watch), it's good to see an objective video putting you a fair disclosure of pros and cons.
I am retired so i really don't mind spending my days sitting in the waiting room of my toyota dealers service waiting room. it sure beats staying home and watching "the view". and i get free coffee every morning
I haven't driven a 4th gen yet but looks pretty obvious that the engine response and ride is way superior specially the ones with rear spring coils, main issue at this point is ridiculous prices, other comments are just opinions. PD: I own a 3rd gen
Yeah you’re not wrong… the Chevy Colorado has a better bang for buck right now. I think in due time all midsize will no longer be the cheap option, but simply a size option
Major interior pro that was missed: resting your arm when the window is down is now comfortable! I think you mentioned it in your review video too. That was one of the few things on my gen 3 that used to annoy me, and they fixed it 😁 Also, yes, it has a smaller gas tank, but I get as many miles per tank as I did before, and it’s cheaper to fill up. It’s a pro and a con, kind of.
Before I purchased my 2023 TRD sport l read and watched videos about the truck and it was the v6 was a dog it was way outdated and so on yet the sales numbers were amazing and the reputation for quality and reliability was great so l test drove one and loved it and the negatives were not an issue for me at all and purchased one and the truck performs great and does everything l need now they updated the truck and people are now complaining about the updates , you can’t please everyone.
@@lloydalmeida7699 your truck is outstanding. I hope you’re getting a lot out of these channel because that truck will outlive all of us if maintained. Don’t have any FOMO (fear of missing out), you’ve got a great ride. And for sure, everyone can’t be pleased 😌
Also interesting about the wireless charging. But one of my favorite things about the truck is wireless CarPlay. I don't even have to take my phone out of my bag/pocket. And I don't need to charge it in the car coz my phone is on a Magsafe charging dock all night while I sleep, so it's always at 100% and it lasts all day long. Charging a phone too much can be bad for the battery.
4:48 This is a great example of how you should take these cons with a grain of salt. I have the non-14 inch screen so for me it's too small. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with the backup camera. The lines all are accurate and everything works as expected. It does have kind of a fish-eye effect (much less so than the front camera of the premium package) but it's inconsequential at least to me. Kind of like the automatic wipers, but then this could also be anitpicky thing.
@@fiftyshadesofurban That’s very fair, I’m their defense I wanted all pros and cons that at were big or small to owners. It really helped flesh out a lot of details 🍻
I have test drove the 24 TRD sport premium twice and I really like the improvements that they have made to the 24. I am 70 years old and that info screen didn't bother me at all. Maybe it's made for older people. I am still considering getting it but they are trying to stick me up without a pistol for my 22 low mileage TRD sport.
@@GerryHavican don’t let them win. Heck, private market sale (if you choose to the 2024). Your 3rd gens value is an all time high I believe. If you stay with the 3rd gen enjoy her just the same. 4th gen will be around for the next 5 years AT LEAST
@@teamoildrop It took Toyota 8 years before they did this big remake on the Tacoma. You tube Whoop Monster on juice video. That was with the small and slow hydraulics. The next year I doubled the height and speed and then I called it break dancing because I was breaking parts.

Yes, they are certainly working through that issue. Its rather common for some issues to arise with new model updates. Thanks for bringing that topic to light Greg
Still wouldn’t buy one; especially a first year design vehicle. My personal opinion, when I test drove a Tacoma trd off-road (premium package) recently, yes the low end torque was impressive but I didn’t feel any extra horsepower with the mid to high range of the 4-cylinder engine. The interior seemed just too cheap and low quality plastic that I feel, wouldn’t stand the test of time. Each to their own with the boxy body style but I think the 3rd gen Tacoma body style to be more streamlined and versatile looking. Overall, yes there’s some improvements with this fourth gen but not enough major upgrades from the third gen for me to trade in my 2022 trd pro that’s paid for. I’ll pass but more power to the people that like and prefer this new disposable/throwaway Tacoma.
@@teamoildrop I agree and plan on it. Have no desire to have ANY truck with a 4-cylinder engine under the hood, instead I’ll just get a full size truck with at least a V6………
4 cylinder is too small for a truck this size so they slapped a turbo on it so the poor booger is always running hard. Kiss your 300k Tacos goodbye, will this new one even make 200k? Why did they do this? Well, for govt subsidies but still, this bites.
People complaining about "too much tech on the 4th gen" and then half a breath later, "But I have to turn the wipers on myself?!!!" Maybe Toyota needs to sell a TRD OFF ROAD ALOE TISSUES to dry the tears. But legit complaint: that worthless tupperware skid plate that ships on most trims. What a joke. Total profit grab. Had a Hyundai Sonata with literally equivalent underbody protection on it. Maybe this was Scion inspired.
So after livin with my Tacoma for a couple days. I can tell you the ONLY con I have for ya is the tiny volume knob that comes with the 8" screen. It's absolutely horrible. It's incredibly hard to turn. Pressing it in does play/pause or is a mute button or something, and I've pressed it in a bunch of times by accident while trying to rotate it, and it's smooth. It's terrible. 8" screen doesn't even bother me but man that knob is CRAP.
I u=installed harget knurled knobs in my 2023. I think you're correct, the 2024 knows are extremely small. I'm sure there will be replacements available very soon. Greg
@@teamoildrop Some guy on a forum reminded me that there are volume controls on the steering wheel. They are vol up down buttons so it takes more effort but it's less annoying. I'm planning on in a few months finding a TRD Off-Road with the premium package and trading mine in for it. I just can't live without the cameras man. It's so hard to see and I always used it on my Gladiator. Once you use the 360 cameras you can never go back. I actually kinda like the cloth seats. Which is weird but unfortunately there's no way to get just the 360 camera system w/large screen. The cameras are only on the premium package.

i have an '07 tacoma prerunner and '22 tacoma trd off-road. I will never be getting a turbo'd engine, ever. Seems like the engineering is absolutely retarded. They destroy'd the engine for slightly less emissions. serves no purpose for the consumer. Actually bought a '24 4runner because it's the last regular 6 cylnder 4.0l toyota will ever make, also 100% made in japan with no parts made in china.
