2023 TOYOTA TACOMA WORTH BUYING TRD PACKAGE

[Jonathan_S]

You could buy 4 quality used vehicles for that price that you'd actually take off-road and abuse. 

I haven't looked recently but a months ago, I'm not sure you could have gotten a $10,000 used vehicle that would make it home.

I do not know if this is still applicable, but worth checking into.  I have a 2008 TRD Sport, it's my third Tacoma.  The TRD Off Road version has a locker rear end, but it disengages at 6MPH, making it an open rear end, and making it useless in my opinion to drive in town in the snow.  It is only for crawling.  The TRD Sport has a Limited Slip and works great for me.  Not trying to be negative, it might not even be this way anymore.  Good luck.

Good solid 1 man kind of truck.  2 guys, not enough room with gear, get an animal,  , ya itll do a trailer and gear, if youre ok with working it hard. Lately, they are made for soccer balls.

I wouldn’t buy a tacoma… I’ve got one and it’s my least favorite truck I’ve owned.
A midsize truck with worse than full size fuel economy. I usually get 10-12 mpg driving I90 across the state.

Really? What year?  I got 23 driving to Cody this fall.

2020

Bummer.  I wonder if there is something wrong with it?  Even my 13 with the 4.0 never got that bad of milage.  It got 16 no matter how I drove it.

I get 17.4 mostly freeway with 33s and a tune on my 2021 TRD Offroad

My dad has a 20 TRD quad cab with stock wheels/tires and gets 19+ driving it like a normal guy.

Sweet trucks but they get tight quick with two guys and some gear.  I’d go up to a full size, have more room and get the same mileage.

not what the lockers are for, if you need to lock it in to drive in town you have bigger issues.

WELL THE TACOMA IS OUT, THE REVIEWS AND YOUR REVIEWS TOLD ME NO. ANY RECOMMENDATIONS ON TRUCKS IN THAT PRICE RANGE.

I have a 2023 Tacoma TRD/Off-road and love it.  If I need more room, or need to tow, well that's what the 2nd Gen Dodge is for.  But then, I dont have to sit in the back seat of my Tocoma either.

Sweet trucks for sure, too bad diesel is more costly than gas these days

Yeah that’s true and it’s bs, but it gets literally double the mileage of what my last truck did (same truck but a 5.3 gas) so easy math, the extra $1 or so per gallon isn’t a concern
