They do, personally like the Rivian over the Tacoma, however range takes a nose dive when loaded and/or towing. Recharge time is slow. Tank size is all about range for me.
that does not matter the non-hybrid models have the same exact gas tank as the Hybrid.
Sometimes I wonder if they are putting smaller tanks/range in these trucks to get us ready for electrics. I personally like the idea that GM had with the Volt and is now being used by BYD which is using combustion engines as generators to move electric motors. I think BYD uses Diesel (which will probably never happen here). It's an excellent idea that would pave the way to replace the generator with a fuel cell, etc... as technology improves. If electric were better, I'd for sure go that way. You just can't put electricity in a can.
How many miles are you getting per tank?
Wonder the same since they put the tank on the passenger side and did the wacky exhaust routing.
They Tacoma has a long history of people trying to make it do what it wasn’t designed to do. People wanted bigger, so they made it bigger, (some say it is too big now) they wanted more power, so they gave it more power, people wanted better fuel economy, they gave it better fuel economy yet low end torque suffered, people wanted better fuel economy plus low end torque, they gave it that, but took away range. etc, etc, etc…
