- So are you a Tacoma or Jeep person let me know in the comments. Also what other vehicle should I go up against? I was thinking of calling out someone with a TRD 4x4 off-road.

Airing down your tires would have helped you through most of those obstacles.
What's that just letting some air out?
@@oxbowxylophone6380 Yes. Reducing air pressure in the tires increases the tire footprint alot, giving you way more traction. It's for slow speeds though, not bombing down forest roads at speed.
@@oxbowxylophone6380 Yes. Most off-roaders let some air out of their tires once they leave the pavement. It helps cushion the ride and provides a lot more traction. I’ll usually go down to 15-18psi when I’m off-roading, but other people will go even lower if they have the right kind of wheels.
That and having a rear locker and atrac would have made it up that first obstacle
i was just gona say, im no offroad guy, but i sure love driving challenges... and the first comment that came to mind was ' tires are way over inflated for the task ' deflate and carry a air pump for after your fun... its so cheap, why not use the advantage of added grip
As a fellow Toyota owner (Tundra) your Tacoma looks nice. However, like one of the other commenters mentioned, that 6" lift might seem like the right gear, it's not built for off-roading. I run a suspension lift; 3" in the front and 1.5" in the rear, and have 14" of ground clearance on 35/12.25/R17 tires. Ground clearance achieved with a proper suspension lift (Fox/King/Icon/etc) is what works and is purpose built for off-roading. The other thing someone else mentioned was airing down your tires. For this to work and be the most efficient you want the smallest wheels your brakes will allow (for me 17" wheels) and the most amount of tire wall to allow airing down enough, yet still have enough tire protection while deflated to keep a rock from bending your wheel rim and throwing the bead.
No hate at all bro! Great video, good looking Tacoma! Just some constructive observational feedback of which you may have already heard or considered yourself. Thanks for the video!!!👍
This is a joke that Tacoma will be running great in 10 years that jeep is a money pit piece of junk lol
@@adamcraven2002fr
Tires below 25 for off road, more like 15 for rock crawling (which this was not)
BIGGEST SECRET: momentum. Using the minimum force necessary, try to ALWAYS keep your rig moving forward. Dead stops on big inclines are nightmares of phyisics.
First obstacle the Jeep definitely was not locked in the front. Open diff was obvious. Overall a good video.
this is hard to watch
TACOMA GANG 🤘🏽🤘🏽jeeps stay having problems 🤮
I’m not driving a Home Depot truck lol
@@patriot2118 Home Depot know what will get there materials to the destination without any issues 😂
I don’t think the music is loud enough
sick looking truck but I gotta be honest and say that the truck would have struggled less if it was the off road trim
And the driver
@@saulgarcia4761 😂
The TRD Off-Road immediately has the advantage over the Sport, especially with anything involving rock climbing/going over logs/etc. because the Off-Road has a full skid plates/protected undercarriage. EDIT - plus, didnt realize the sport does NOT have locking diff/crawl control, terrain selection and everything the Off-Road has.
Or manual transmission, although autos are easier, manuals have 4.30 rear gear with the 8.8 differential..
@@josephmengele7804
sport 4x4 does come in manual, i have one. with trac control off, 4h and tires aired down even to 25psi, the sport could do most of the obstacles fine. the biggest problem the sport has for off roading imo is the hood scoop blocking view, only having one rear back up camera (off road has i think 4 total) and it isn't equipped with crawl control. even still, the sport is a good off road vehicle. nitto grapplers did really good in mud, rocks and sandy conditions and had zero issues in the snow or mountains last year. the one thing they don't do great in is the rain/rain puddles at higher speeds, especially on regular road, 2wd, and trac control on. you'll feel your truck jerk around.
@@nept369 yeah I’ve heard about the hood scoop being in the way while off roading. My offroad 6mt happens to have the 4 cameras and it’s very useful at 7mph or under. Is yours a double or access cab sport?
Double cab. Im not sure if they make the trd sport 4x4 in access cab. even if they did, i need the extra space for the family. we usually travel with the taco.
@@nevadadesert1906 I’ve seen a sport access cab 6mt that’s why I asked if yours was either one. Don’t recall if seeing the 4x4 decals but was unaware yours being a trd sport double cab 6mt was an option. That’s cool… Best of wishes!…. I do feel my truck slide a bit as you mentioned on higher speeds in rain. Do you still have the factory 17in rims and tires or upgraded? I still have the 16in rims on mine with original tires. 2022 with 16k miles.
Videos never do justice for how steep the hills really are
I love my TRD 4Runner but it’s not in the same class as my Rubicon, off road.
Tacoma looks sick, but that rc lift just isn’t built for this type of off-roading brotha. I have the rc 3 inch coil kit and it does okay, but I eventually want to get a full king/fox/icon setup lol.
Look like you guys didn't air down
You can't beat the jeep, it's driver error, he's clearly not using his lockers, if the free wheel is spinning it's clearly not locked, if it was locked he would have made it up no problem. Get someone who actually knows how to drive a jeep.
I don’t think that Jeep even had lockers. That kid didn’t know what he’s talking about, he said he was locked and you could clearly see the front wheel spinning free while the other front wheel struggled.
Maybe he was trying to keep it fair.
To be fair neither of the two drivers looked like they had any idea what they were doing.
The jeep should have disconnected his sway bar 😂
Put lockers on the Tacoma and it’ll school that jeep plus 3,000 times more reliable
Seriously? Lock the diffs and disconnect the sway bar and no issues. Must be a Toyota guy driving the jeep
It doesn't look like anyone aired down for these trails. Would have helped a ton!
Was thinking the same thing.
@@billwilliams4281 The jeeps tires did look to have less air in them compared to the toyota.
I'm a hardcore Yota guy for most things but give me my Jeep off-road. Love my Gladiator ❤
Apples to oranges. If you had an offroad or pro with rear locker and mts would have been much better comparison.
Had A TRD SPORT.
IMMEDIATE TIME MARK (AFTER VIDEO STARTS) at the
55 seconds into this video….
He asks, “Will the Toyota (ALL stock except for 35” tires 😮and a 6” lift kit) Tacoma keep up with this Jeep”?
I can’t help but to chime in on this question he asks immediately as the video is just starting and BEFORE I even watch it!
Back in the day, starting early and mid 80’s, I was constantly running modded Toyotas off-road with modded Jeeps that some buddies owned. And this went on for years, before and after many different mods to both.
I can honestly say, that there were places the Jeep would go, that I couldn’t get my Toyota in to. But with that being said, there were places I could get into that the Jeep couldn’t do. One key to having a good off-road Toyota, (at least on those days) the best Toyotas for off-roading were the regular cab short beds. This gave the Toyota the very short wheelbase, which was crucial and made a world of difference. One area the Toyota was lacking, was in engine power. While many Jeeps were running stock V8’s, the Toyota was running the little 4 cylinder. (22R if memory serves) Even with some engine mods, power was a bit weak, especially when running 35’s or even 33’s. (Tires)
All of that being said, there is one more HUGE variable not yet mentioned! And that is:
The performance of ANY off-road vehicle, wether it be hill climbing, rock climbing or rough trails, running streams and water crossings etc etc, the ONE hugely variable component that can make a night and day difference???
The DRIVER!!
That’s right! The persons experience and skill, make a night and day difference in how well any vehicle will perform! One guy might try all afternoon to successfully climb a very tall, deep sand trail. And not ever make it. Then, an experienced driver gets in, and makes it right up the sandy mountain, and clears the top no problem at all!!
Driving experience comes from learning from someone who’s very experienced, and then spending much time off-road gaining your own experience!!
Just stomping on the gas doesn’t work! (As most newbies think) And all types of surfaces have different driving techniques you need to apply. Whether it be sand, dirt, mud, water, gravel, rock, snow, uphill, downhill, ice etc etc. etc..
In other words, you see some inexperienced newbie with a beautiful, fully decked out truck, and he’s getting stuck constantly! Meanwhile, an experienced driver with skills, is passing that newbie and beautiful off-road truck, and he’s in an old Toyota with no mods, no lift kit and got street tires on it!! Seen it a thousand times!! Bottom line: Get your driving experience to a good level, BEFORE you go out and invest in a “built” truck. Get a cheaper 4x4 first, gain the experience and driving skills in that, and THEN get your “dream” Toyota or “dream” Jeep.
Trust me! You’ll thank me in the end!!! 🙂🙂
Are you deflating your tires? Does the guy in the Jeep know how to wheel?
The trd off Road is the best opción
No way. The TRDOR only allows the locker to be used in 4LO, instead get an sr5 or sport 4x4 and put in a much better aftermarket ARB or Eaton locker and you can use it in 2HI 4HI or 4LO.
@@sonysoyboysaremadeoftears.7404 You can bypass that feature with a relay and a little re-wiring to use the locker in all modes of drive.
@@LightsOut-xw9cu not on the 3rd gens, a work around only exists on the 1st and 2nd gens for that
@@sonysoyboysaremadeoftears.7404 Good to know. It's too bad that haven't found a workaround yet.
@@LightsOut-xw9cu Yea, That's why I went with a sport 4x4 and installed an eaton e locker. The total cost was around 2500 usd and it works in 2HI 4HI and 4LO and now my sport can go on almost any trail. Next thing to get will be a front locker.
My TRD offroad takles stuff like that all the time. You should have bought the offroaf. I am only on coilovers that give 3" of lift and 33s and have no issues
I'd much prefer doing the 3" . The six on the taco looks so goofy.
Two door Jeep’s are much better for off roaring with the shorter wheelbase. In the long run, the Toyota would be more reliable. Used to be a massive jeep fan, of the older models and the in-line 4.0 6 cylinder was one of the best engines of all time.
Nah
I will say that the wheel base does have its advantages and disadvantages. The 4 door is longer so naturally it better at climbing because of the lower center of gravity. But the 2 door has a better break over angle. Naturally I just got the best of both worlds with my 06LJ.
In my case the JL has been lasting me through all the abuse with no problems and on the other hand my friends tacoma has already had a transmission and alternator swap with no off road abuse.
Jeeps are more reliable as far as I can tell.
nah jeep are more reliable imo if you are really into off-roading , solid front axle is way better than IFS , the vs 6 pentastar is solid. Toyota owner are over estimating the reliability of their car because 98% of them are mall crawler.
The jeep would’ve done better is most of its owners weren’t lesbian dentists
Jeeps are better offroad, but tacomas/4runners are very capable too. Jeeps have the advantage of front solid axles and sway bar disconnect.
When I was purchasing an vehicle for camping/offroading, tacoma 4runner and wrangler were my choices. After much reading and finally test driving all of them, I picked wrangler. The tops and doors being removable was a huge bonus. Dogs love it.
What about the ram power wagon?
His swaybar was connected
No its not. Jeep are garbage. GTFO
They both need lockers. The Jeep needs a quick disconnect sway bar.
imagine doing these trails without airing down lol, car is only as good(moreover bad in this video) as the driver
Jeep’s are by far some of the best off-roading platforms. Hard to beat front solid axles, short wheelbases, and good stock clearance . With the right gear basically unstoppable. The Jeep gladiator would’ve been a better comparison to the Tacoma .
That jeep need to air down and disconnect sway bars
Thought this dude said he had lockers???
The amount of money that nigga put in his jeep to make it like a rubicon🤦...mine as well throw lockers on the taco
Rigs look very nice. These rookies need A LOT to learn... 😁
No slowing down on uphill obstacles... Keep steady forward momentum, NO TIRE HOPPING -> that is how axles and u-joints snap.
The only bad thing about jeeps is reliability, on my 2020 rubicon transmission break at 70000 miles and the dealer said the only way to fixed is replace the whole transmission I never buy jeep again, my 1999 Toyota Tacoma has 366000 miles still working
That trans problem surprises me on the Jeep. Those things are practically bulletproof. And people are putting hemis’ in front of the stock transfer cases and they aren’t breaking, including differentials, u-joints, drive shafts, axles, etc. I’ve been out with Toyota buddies and I’ve had to drive them out and go back with wrenches to fix the Toyotas to get them out.
I know I will get lots of had feedback from the Toyota loyal that will try and convince me that my experiences never happened, because according to them, Toyotas NEVER break anything. In these off road competitions, 99% of the time the Jeeps school the Toyotas.
My 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee is all original. 5.2, the transmission, both diffs, transaxle. Even starter and alternator. 233,000 kms.
Dude in the jeep can't drive
Sway bar disconnected on the jeep would have really made it look easy. I can't believe it was connected. Great way to break em
The jeep should have made it fair with out using its lockers.
6” is the worse for the Tacoma ,
Time mark 4:08
“That’s max capacity on my 4 wheel drive” ??? Wait.. What? What does that statement even supposed to mean??
The truck WILL make that climb, that you show as stuck in. The ability of ALL vehicles when off roading, is NOT just the truck and how many mods you’ve put on it! The main factor is skill!! A learned skill, that comes with experience!! It’s not just a matter of stepping on the gas! Driving skill is a tremendous part of where any vehicle will or will not go, or what hill they will, or will not climb!!
Only 4 minutes in, and Bro, you’re making us Toyota guys cringe in pain, when you blame the trucks performance, when it’s not the truck at all! Sorry, but only a few minutes in, and I can see that you’re driving skills are at a beginner level. You have a lot to learn. And as you do, you will find that the Toyota you’re driving here, will be coming back to these same places and climbing those dames hills, but instead of NOT making them, you will easily climb and make them all!!
This is not an insult in any way. We must ALL learn. There’s a lot more to off road driving than most people know. There’s definitely a large learning curve. But again, it’s something that we must ALL go through and accomplish. As your driving skill set improves, the places your Toyota will go, will also improve. Mark my words, you’re on your way!!! 🙂👍👍👍
Neither one has front lockers.
I drive a Tacoma 4X4 TRD off-road i personally despise Jeep just because it's a Chrysler product from stalantis but I won't lie that Jeep will beat the brakes off a Tacoma it's not even close! Toyota is the better vehicle but it's hard to fuck with a jeep off-road
Jeep has a locker in the front and the Tacoma does not....world of difference. I just sold my Rubicon lifted with 37's and I would prefer a tacoma any day.
Tacoma driver disappointing, learn to wheel man, painful to watch. Could’ve represented the yota community
this is kind of a stupid comparison. The Jeep is built to go on these extreme trails, the Taco is a trade off of road comfort and some off-road, also the Taco you use does not have a rear locker so there is that. I would rather use a Taco as a daily commuter, or travel than that Jeep..which will have you feeling sick on long road trips.
Y'all are treating a jeep and a Toyota off road vehicle like they ain't got speed most these are easy just need a little bit off speed your not doing anything extreme like driving 6 inch walls and stuff to drive slow you on some bike trails 😂😅
i dont know about newer stuff but with older units being in 4hi while low speed/gear wheeling can be hard on clutches, why not just put it in 4lo and climb up it?
Unfair, the jeep looks properly built, the tacoma definitely is not with that crappy drop bracket lift.
Your tacoma build dimension not good for off-road my friend. Very tall vehicle, your tires should be extended out more.
Hey not to talk bad about you have that 6in lift but I think you would have more benefits if you go to a 2.5in lift or a 3in lift and do the bmc and you'll be able to clear 35s a lot of tacomas ik have theirs set up like that since the lower tour center of gravity is the better and im In a 1st gen 5sp taco and I can go a lot of places guy fully locked and 40s go I am just more aware of the lines I need to choose
Better off without that side steps.
My guy the Tacoma has 4wd the front tire spun when you gassed it up when if it was 2wd the front tires wouldn’t spin as fast if not at all
get a arb air locker it'll be way better then factory blocker, and also run at like 12 psi
Tacoma is stunning beast💪💪💪❤❤❤
Yea everything looks more mild on camera for sure.
Bro try recording on a drone when youre on hills . I think itll make the hill seem how it really is irl
The sport doesn’t lock and the sway bar still connected plus tires not air downed
Wrangler is overrated, the price is to much the owners act like its a g wagon
Rubicon and lower pressure and that jeep will have alot more too
Also air down homie atleast to 20psi
Tacoma is no challenge to wranglers or gladiator
Jeeps suck, I had a 2015 Sahara Wrangler LTD 6 speed. terrible for daily driving and mediocre at off roading. I currently daily drive my 1985 4runner SR5 5 speed with the 22re and 35's with 5:29 gears and Trail Gear suspension.
That is not entirely correct. You have to be specific in what areas and even then it's not always a given.
Except in reliability
I normally air my wrangler to 27 psi for off roading and 22 for rock crawling just fyi it helps
I air my Tacoma down to 15 normally.
i take tacoma🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮 all day iiuuuu jeeps 😫
I was hoping to see a Toyota and a jeep go head to head not a Toyota and fiat
As a Toyota owner, if it’s not sas, it ain’t very capable
I would take the steps off for more ground clearance
This video is like a song in the beginning xd
Please comment which one should I buy?
Keep more beast but only for one round at the off-road ! And check the engine but Tacoma will last long doesn’t matter how often you take for off-road !
It helps if you no how to drive, just sayin’! Love jeeps and Yota’s both, if equally locked it would be a lot closer.
video would have been better without the music
Jeep has more tricks up it's sleeve. We're only seeing some of it's articulation potential. Could've spent 2 mins to wrench off the sway bar links to unleash the Jeeps full potential.
Did you have to take some air out of your tires?
Get wildpeak AT3 you never spin your tires
Our lsd works in both axles. Tap those breaks and let it do it's thing. It's no MTS but it's much better than people give it credit for
Air down tires, get a smaller lift and bigger tires with smaller wheels and rock sliders, and high clearance bumpers and front and rear lockers and you’ll be better than the Jeep
Nice sharing my friend
that 6 inch lift is hindering you tbh.
Anything Toyota is better than anything anything
Nice rig but Air down...get rid of your RC's and if u are able...get a Dobinson long travel setup...the MRR's and some sliders. I have a 2020 Sport 4x4 and went thru same type of trail...only one time did she spin on some slick flat rock on a steep incline..it went into limited slip and we went up no prob. The regear to 5.29's also gave it the lower end torque it needed too. It was a blast!
Off roading with running boards lol
😂 give me a break Toyotas are junk
I had a 88 Chevy Sport side short bed. The thing was a beast!! 5" Body lift on 34s . Enjoyed driving in deep snow!
The trd off road or pro probably would’ve kicked the jeeps ass cause they have all the stuff that you need for this
That silt makes me want to go out and clean my air filter and I'm watching this shit from behind a screen 😂😂
TRD OFF-ROAD has better capability than the sport obviously but you got a nice Tacoma
Is the TRD sport right? Missing that rear differential lock made that Tacoma struggled
Bad driver not tacomas fault
Air downnnn
I just like coming to the comments to see the internet experts state what everybody should have done
Tacoma owner. You installed an aftermarket lift why didn't you add lockers? At least an electronic rear locker. I've had several tacoma off road models. Good, capable trucks.
Jeep for the Win 🥇 💪🏽🔥 sorry comas😂
Why 6" lift on the tacoma?
Need to choose your line better, air down and work on your gas control. 😮💨
Not even a fair comparison.
Do Yk what axels the Jeep has?
Mesin yang bagus
Which one?
can u lock your diffs plllssss
Hey jeep USE YOUR LOCKERS
the jeep would have done way better if he took his swaybar off
that trim level doesn't come with the electronic disconnect
@@Slaize you can do it manually no need for an electric sway bar disconnect
