Only reason I am thinking about a Tacoma is I hope the transmission is built in Japan. I have had problems in my 20/20 F-150 with the automatic transmission built by General Motors. Toyota has such a reputation for reliability that my 07 Ford F150 has just had half spark plugs and brakes for over 230,000 miles. I want a reliable truck!!!

The historic manufacturer of Toyota transmissions has been AISIN. I don't know if that is true for the Tacoma. AISIN is a Toyota company.

I asked a buddy who works for Toyota. His answer, "as far as I know." So yes, AISIN Japan for the transmissions.

Plus, the transmission issues of last year had nothing to do with the unit itself. It's a sound design. In that case, external contaminates being introduced into the unit is causing the failures.

Yep - Aisin is partly Toyota owned and makes most of their transmissions. They also make transmissions for a lot of other companies, like the RAMs with Cummins diesels.
The transmissions in Tacos are made in Japan, so anyone can screw up this stuff anymore it seems.
