Just bought a 2014 Tacoma prerunner lb crew cab for work. Badass truck, still very modern looking and the interior was way ahead of itself back then so holds up very well today
I have a red 2015 Double Cab SR5. Even 8 years later it still looks great. Had only 58,000 miles when I got it which is basically nothing compared to other Tacomas.
I didn’t know this but when you take the head rests off the rear back seats and place them into slots in the back/under of the bottom cushion (that’s already been folded down) you can lay the backrest completely flat and have tons of space!
I do like the reliability and how these trucks have a little more legroom than a Civic. Plus, these older Tacomas are depreciating in value since we are now on a new generation of them. So the market potential is still out there on these to buy and use them. Less money spent on the same or more vehicle=win-win!
Exactly just purchased a 2015 2 days ago for a VERY reasonable price with under a 100k miles. Not TRD but despite that I only transport mostly instruments and lumber for the skate ramps I like to build. Amazing vehicle
@@jaycreati0ns73 The only thing that a Civic beats a Tacoma on though, in the long term, is maintenance costs. A Civic needs less oil and gas, per sitting, than a Tacoma and there is less displacement in the engine and tranny so you, of course, burn far less fuel per mile per gallon. A Civic is a great point A to B car over roads and roads only. Outside that, a Tacoma has you covered. 😎
I just bought one I liked the video a lot, liked and subscribed, good luck on your UA-cam adventures I’ll be looking forward to seeing what you put up man! Tacoma owner for life this is my second I owned a tundra 5.7l also. Great vehicles
Sorry about the late reply, but I don’t always get notified about comments for some reason. Anyways! Thank you so much! It means a lot, it really does. I’m stoked to keep putting content out for you.
That is all covered in another video on my channel. Titled something like “mid travel Tacoma build breakdown” with that truck as the thumbnail. Go give that video a watch and leave a comment with any more questions you might have.
I’m 5’11”-6’0” and head room isn’t a problem for me in the front seats. In the back seats it’s a little close for comfort. If I sit up really straight and stretch my neck I’m hitting my head in the back seat.
They’re just the stock speakers that come on the TRD Sport. And same goes for the mirrors. I didn’t change them out, the TRD Sport comes with paint matched mirrors that have the turn indicators
Beautiful Truck. I am going to look at one tomorrow but I am not sure if it is a five speed automatic or a four-speed automatic, the owner does not know that. I am also not sure if it is a TRD because the owner says he is not sure, he just knows it is a 4 x 4. Do you happen to know? If so thank you so much
I have a build breakdown video on my channel that you should give a look for a bit more detail, but the summary is: about 2.5"-3" with the coilovers, not sure the original tire size but I went up to a 33", and the rear I think has about 2" from the leaf springs.
I have no idea why I sometimes don’t get notifications about comments, so ignore the fact that I’m 9 months late on the reply. I love my truck till this day. Never gets old. It’s kind of weird how much fun I have driving it haha.
No kidding? Man I wonder what determined which trucks got the outlet then because I've definitely seen a Tacoma newer then 09 without an outlet. Huh, time to hit the forums and do some research!
Hi my friend I have a question?. I measure 1.90m how is the space in the back seats?. I really love this car but I'm thinking a lot about the space in the back seats, Because I have a family with 2 children and my wife
So you are measuring at just under 6'3". I myself am 6'0" and to be honest its not the most comfortable ride in the backseat. It is definitely doable for me just not the most comfortable. Since you are 3" taller it might not be doable for you. My head is very very close to the roof when I'm in the backseat. If you're going to be primarily driving the vehicle it should be fine. theres more room in the front and it feel like it sits lower then the back seats. I think your wife or kids will totally be ok in the back seat if they're under 6'0".
Thanks man. The lift is about 2.5”. I go into more detail about the build in a video on my channel called “Mid Travel Tacoma...” if you wanna check that out.
I have a video titled “Mid Travel Tacoma: Build Breakdown/Review on my page that you should go check out! It will answer all of that in more depth. If you have any further questions after watching that video just comment on it and I’ll be more then happy to answer.
Long story short, I have OEM replacement King Shocks. For a more in depth answer check out the build breakdown video ua-cam.com/video/v-K3S6e9r8s/v-deo.html (starts at 4:07)
100,000 is where people start to see problems and repairs being needed unless the vehicle was really well kept. I’ve heard of Tacoma’s going above 200,000 if they’re very well kept.
Yeah sounds pretty pricy NGL. But it also comes down to the mods it has on it, the condition, the trim, etc. If you live in the SoCal area, check out VilmontMarket on IG they’re a classifieds page for mostly Toyota stuff and people are always selling Tacomas on there
The thing I love most about my 2014 Taco is that it’s paid for.
awesome! how much was the

2nd gen tacomas are so beautiful
Simp 😊
I have an 05 Tacoma with a power outlet! They come on the TRD models!
The one thing I love about my 2015 4DLB sport tacoma is that it's a TOYOTA.
Way nicer than the 3rd gens. Can’t wait to get rid of my 3rd and buy a 2nd gen
They have their pros and cons. I love the 3rd gens for different reasons. Should I do love/hate videos on the 3rd Gen next?
@@desertdime Yes that would extremely informative guy.
I had a 2020 but then now I have a 2015
I have a white V6 2014 that's just like this. only differences are a bigger lift and the extended bed. I LOVE IT
Just got my 2014 TRD off road 92k miles, my 1st toyota I love it!

I have a 2015 4x4 and I love it. But I kinda regret taking out the rear storage behind the back seat for a sub box. It’s still a great truck though
I didn’t know u could do that! 👍🏻

I got a silver 2014 tacoma trd sport and i love the JBL system.
Does all the 2014 trd sports come equipped with JBL's?
My 2010 Tacoma’s got a outlet, love my taco
If you fold down the rear seat headrests, you can fold the seats flat (the backs are hard plastic). I do that for my dog and he loves it.
Oh man I’ll have to give this a try

What? depreciating? a dealership just offered me 34,000 for my 2014 sport 4x4, that's 7,000 more than I paid for it in 2018.

“Knock on wood”

👀 Were you hiding in the bushes watching me film this 😂 how did you know!?
I like this look. If you don’t mind me asking what is the spec on your truck, Height? what did you use to lift? The type of wheels you have

The TRD sports for 2005 had bed outlets

I'm 6'3" and headroom is never an issue.
i have a 2019 sr5 4x4 i love it
Toyota Tacomas are made to go off-road they can climb Hills like crazy

Other than flat tires or running out of gas, it will never leave you on the side of the road
Love my Taco 🌮
Best black plastic coating ive ever used is Cerakote Trim Coat on my Taco or any other car black plastics
Thanks for the recommendation! I'll have to check it out some time.
How many inches did you lift your truck front and rear I would like to lift my truck exactly like yours.
I have a build breakdown video on my channel that you should give a look for a bit more detail, but the summary is: about 2.5"-3" with the coilovers, not sure the original tire size but I went up to a 33", and the rear I think has about 2" from the leaf springs.
How many miles you got and is she still treating you right
Around 72-73k. Yeah (knock on wood) she’s still treating me good. Anything going wrong is self inflicted with modifications
I'd have to argue about seat comfort. I bruised my pelvis on mine. I wound up having to put a kneeling pad under my Carhartt seat covers
What are you hitting your pelvis on?
@@desertdime I called it my 'a$$ bones', but my doctor corrected me 😆
Ohh yeah I feel that after long rides 😂 anything over 2.5 house will start to hurt.
How is it for u so far? I’m planning on getting a 2014 prerunner
I have no idea why I sometimes don’t get notifications about comments, so ignore the fact that I’m 9 months late on the reply. I love my truck till this day. Never gets old. It’s kind of weird how much fun I have driving it haha.
An even better product for trim restore is black on black, last longer than vrp I used to work at a chemical guys

Wow
I’ve got a 2014 tacoma that makes a loud swooshing sound when I turn it off, anyone know what it might be?):
I have a 2013, mine does this as well. I believe it's something to do with the emissions control system, and it's normal.
It is for emissions. My 2013 TRD off road does it too.
Outlets are from second gen 2005 and up
It must be determined by the trim level before a certain year because I have a friend with a mid year second gen with no outlet in his bed.
I brought my 1989 hilux in Afghanistan
I TOOK A PICTURE AT THIS SAME SPOT IN CHINO HILLS WTFFF
