Discussion: What Features Do You Think Are Missing From The Tacoma?

[3Wliners Floor Mats]

Guys,

Have you pre-ordered the Tacoma4G? Or do you already have one? What features do you think are missing from the Tacoma4G? What would you like to see added or improved?

The pic is from our friend @Frazier and his puppy.

I've got a Off-Road with the Premium package.

"What features do you think are missing from the Tacoma4G?"

Nothing. What it has for features is unbelievable. I call it my Spaceship.



"What would you like to see added or improved?"

The estimated range is considerably off. When I top off, it shows about 300 miles, but since I get 22 MPG, it's actually 400.

I limit my acceleration, live in a two-light town, and use Eco Mode.

I’ve had my TRD sport since May. I figure this might be one of my last vehicles so I bought exactly what I wanted.

Only things I can think of that I think would improve the truck would be:

1. a couple of extra inches of rear legroom
2. larger gas tank. Although to be honest it hasn’t really been a big deal. I figure I get around 600 kms range. Which really covers everywhere I have gone.
3. better grab handle on passenger side for getting in. My dad has troubles.

I knew all of the above when I bought it since I was going from a full size to mid sized truck. This was a me truck so I didn’t really need them. I honestly can’t really think of anything else. It’s the best vehicle I have owned and exactly what I wanted. My research really paid off.

I usually get about 19 in the city if I’m not really aggressive and around 22 on the highway. 24 I would say is the best I have seen. So not too far off the quoted fuel economy numbers.

I put wider tires on and it made quite a big difference. I bought narrower winter tires and probably noticed a 5-10% difference in fuel economy. Wide tires used more gas. So with OEM tires I’m probably be bang on the listed numbers.

Two real grab handles in the front

real leather, memory seat and mirrors, power memory steering wheel on the limited. My wifes outback has most of that and cost 20k less...

Rain sensing wipers. Considering the price point and all the other tech, it seems like a weird omission.

I got a premium TRD sport. It has about everything I can think of except for an acceptable stereo. The JBL system is quite terrible.
