Love my Toyota

Great truck. Just turned 91,000 and recently replaced it's first muffler. Say's it all. Dependable. Hauls everything from firewood to weekend get-aways. Has more scratches than I can count, but that's ok. She is a workhorse.

Does what I need.

My Tacoma does everything that I need. Being a 4-cylinder, it does not have a great deal of power, but that is fine since I don't tow anything with it. After nine years it is starting to show some electrical issues, particularly with the horn.

Love Toyota Vehicles

My Tacoma is my third Toyota truck. We've also owned Camrys and Sienna Vans. We've never been disappointed with their performance. They've all lasted into the hundreds of thousands of miles. I credit this to Toyota workmanship and my service center, Cabena's Japanese Auto Care in Acworth, GA. My daughter was in a high speed t-bone crash, and she walked out of my Camry without any injuries.

Mice ate my Tacoma's wiring (again!)

Toyota, please use Mouse Poison instead of Mouse Treats for the insulation on your wiring. We all have better places to spend our time and $$$$ than deal with this stupid nonsense. Either fix the design or use better protected wiring. It's a great truck inflicted with a small but very costly to repair stupid design flaw if you live where mice are present (and in the country, who doesn't?)

My 2012 Taco

I truly enjoy my Tacoma! It's a fun vehicle to drive and we get compliments on it often. On top of being a great looking truck it is awesome off-road or pulling a trailer, hauling lumber or our 3 furbabies. Love my Tacoma ?

My third Toyota Tacoma in 30 years.

This is my third Toyota Tacoma in 30 years. Tacoma is the only truck I'll ever own. I bought my first Tacoma used, and drove it for about five years. I bought my second Tacoma new, and drove it for 17 years. I bought my third Tacoma new (this one) and I've had it for nine years. All three were red extended cabs. I love my Tacoma!

My third Toyota Tacoma in the past 30+ years.

My first truck was a used, red, Toyota Tacoma extended cab. I drove it for about 8 years and sold it for close to what I had paid. I then bought a new red Toyota Tacoma extended cab. I drove it for 17 years without a single problem, and sold it privately for a good price. I replaced it with a new, red, 2012 Toyota Tacoma extended cab. I've had no problems at all, and plan to keep it for 20 years. I'll never own anything except a red Toyota Tacoma extended cab.

More repairs than expected

This is my 2nd Tacoma. My first was a 2003, which needed no repairs, other than routine maintenance, for over 100K miles. This 2012 with 60K has needed quite a bit already, such as steering universal and A/C compressor, etc. I absolutely love the truck, but hoping this maintenance trend slows down.

Toyota Tacoma

Great mid-sized truck that is easier to find parking for in the city. Able to haul large cargo with plenty of power. Easy to tow trailers and such with. back seat has plenty of room for passengers although no super comfortable for long distances and the back seat space is very nice for shopping and such.

Love my Tacoma

Fun to drive. Dependable, stylish, comfortable. I recommend the Tacoma for anyone wanting style and dependability. We only purchase Toyota products. My daughter was in a wreck with a Toyota Camry, and she and her fiance walked away from the wreck. I credit this to Toyota's commitment to safety.

2012 Tacoma DCSB 4x4 6 speed manual

These midsize Toyota trucks are the absoulte best in terms of function and utility when it comes to something that you need to drive every day. They are rugged, appropriately sized, and just unbelievably reliable.

2012 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off Road

This truck is a Toyota and it holds up to the Toyota standard. I've used my truck on long distance interstate trips and off road. I don't push the truck to its max but when I need to navigate precarious terrain, the built-in features of 4WD, differential traction and low gear ability provide a steady, reliable and safe ride. I love this truck
