What do you guys think of the new Tacoma? WHAT WOULD BE THE FIRST THING YOU UPGRADE ON YOUR TACOMA??
The Car Creative oh you know just slap some big wheels tires and lift on it eh bud
Bought 1 week again.. first thing I did was the Heritage pro grill.
Mud-flaps, I went with Rek Gen. Have to protect that nice new truck
Just picked up the same exact truck except in the manual. Cement is definitely an awesome color, especially in person. First thing I'll be doing is getting a tune loaded in from Orange Virus Tune to help with the weird throttle response changes between all the gears 👍 other than that, the truck is all around badass!
I'm looking into one with the manual transmission. Beautiful truck.
My thoughts after owning my Tacoma one year:
1. Can’t see over the front hood
2. Can’t see cars under the window line
3. Can’t see anything behind
4. Still wouldn’t drive anything else but a Tacoma.
😂😂 Love that! Haha! So true!
Can't see anything but reliability!
Ah, but they can see you!!
Better keep looking
REALLY? you must be blind LOL I wear glasses and sitting higher with this I still see all those areas you complain about.
I have a 2018 Tacoma , with the TRD off road package . I bought it brand new with only 3 miles on the truck, 2 and half years ago. With 23,000 miles on it now, still run like a brand new truck. I only had one minor issue since owning it. I was washing the truck and notice a lot of water inside the cab behind the back seat. The third brake light above the rear windows of the truck was leaking in water. This was 9 months after owning the truck. Come to find out, the 2016 through early 2018 models had the wrong size gasket. There was no recall on this at the time. I call the dealership where I bought the truck from and explain my issue. Luckily, they knew about this issue and had the new replacement part in stock. This took about an hour and 20 minutes of labor to replace that part and at no cost to me. Other than that, I love my Tacoma!
Thanks so much for the info and stoked that you are still loving your truck man! I really enjoyed having it while I did and was a sad day to return it! Such an awesome and reliable vehicle!
Finally someone who didn’t put the Pro grill in ! Looks good
Just purchased a 2021 off road premium.. love the look of those wheels and tires.
Congrats!! Such a great truck!
I got the 2020 off road with tech, but I wish premium. How much was yours after everything. My was 37k and then all other fees, taxes, license and reg etc =. 39k.
My modifications have been subtle over my two years of ownership with my '18. I have a 3" lift/leveling kit with some 285/70r17s, installed a Curt receiver(SR trim did not come with a factory receiver), an Aries headache rack, and some demon shackle mounts with D-Rings for the front(recommend this mod to anyone who owns a 3rd gen Tacoma looking for the ability to mount D-Rings without buying an aftermarket bumper).
Great review: Picking up my 2020 TRD Off Road in two days, and looking forward to it. Thanks!
Amazing! Such a sick ride! You’ll love it!
Proud to see a fellow Albertan killing it!! Doesnt hurt we have the same truck :) nice channel
Nice review. Glad to see they put the 10 way adjustable seat option in
Ya! Apparently it makes a huge difference from previous models! I got in at the right time 😃
Great video! I have been searching and searching all sorts of random CZcams videos regarding the Tacoma TRD Sport. I just bought one, will be delivered in around a month's time. You presented all of the information I needed in a concise, entertaining and engaging video. Thank you!
Oh amazing man, congrats! They are such awesome vehicles. You should check out my mate Spencer Hogg on CZcams, he bought the same truck around the same time and has a TON of content on building his out. Simple build but he explains it all really well. I sadly no longer have mine so he'd be a better resource moving forward =)
Maaan, I LOVE the latest generation of Tacomas but I recently bought a 2019 RAV4 XSE since it fits my needs better and the amazing hybrid performance + fuel economy is so clutch.
Thanks for this rad review! I definitely want to own a Taco one day, too. Cheers!
Amazing bro! Congrats on the Rav4! They’re awesome vehicles for sure! Thanks for watching my review. 👊🏼 Glad you enjoyed it.
I'm moving to Colorado in March of 2021 and Looking to replace my current rig with a Tacoma. I'm looking at either a used 2017/18 TRD Pro or just getting a newer TRD off road 2020. Should I spend the extra cash for the PRO or save my Money and just add my own skid plates, beefier tires, bed rack for RTT and some other mods here and there? I don't look to do any wild off road driving or rock crawling, I just want to access some cool trails for camping ect. I know I can always add my own suspension later down the road. I DO WANT leather and heated seats though, I'm sure I can add aftermarket and get seats redone if they are cloth too. My mentality is "buy once cry once" and I know the PRO would be a great start to some off road goodies.
On a good note though I LOVE the stance of your truck. I think it's perfect without overdoing it. 32'' would be a great tire without huge compromise. .
Nice truck! I am going to pick mine up tomorrow. It is the same truck. Dealer installed levelling . Big tires. Cement. off road premium.
Amazing! Enjoy it! I loved having mine =D
How much height are you doing with the leveling? What size is the tire upgrade and do you need to do any fender modifications to avoid rubbing?
I had so many dislikes about my lifted Tacoma. I did not like the squeaks, turning radius compromised, breaking power compromised and constant alignment issues. The only positive thing that I got out of my lifted 2018 Tacoma was that it looked good and that’s about it. To me it’s not worth the money invested in wheels and the lift etc. Save your money and keep your truck stock.
These tires/wheels/lift is the exact route I want to take, thank you.
I just bought a week ago a 2020 TRD off road with the pro package and I have the long bed. Love it.
I got a 2016 TRD Off Road last week, I’m absolutely in love with it.
I think you nailed the review. I had a 2017 and eventually grew tired of the seating position and the absolutely wrong engine/transmission combo (programming). I want to get back into one once they put an 8 speed in it maybe. Just a heads up if you're in AB, if your wheels poke out a bit from the body and mud flaps don't cover it all, you could get a ticket. They target negative offset wheels here once in a while for that.
Great information! The first mod you should do is change your differentials front and back to a 488 or 529 ratio! Not sure if dealerships can do it! You do this mode and it I'll fix the transmission problems and better gas mileage
Very nice video! You’re getting better and better👌🏼
Levii Automotive Thanks my man! Trying! Haha! Thanks for all the support you give 👊🏼👊🏼
Just bought a year end 2020 TRD Sport, with a 6’ box in Canada. You can’t get a 6’ box on the TRD Off Road in Canada . I was interested in your exact truck right down to the cement grey colour but with a 6’ box. Had to get a TRD sport if I wanted a 6’ bed. For off roading a 5’ bed is more preferable tho but I have a young family and I needed the practicality of a 6’ box. When I was researching Tacoma’s I looked at the Toyota.com (USA) website and noticed that in the states they have more packages and combinations to choose from. This why you can get a TRD off road with a 6’ box in the states. Strange that most trucks that are destined for the Canadian market are made in the states. Why can’t we get the same range of choices here? Most Canadian Tacoma’s Vin’s start with a 5 which means made in the states, Texas. Many of the Tacoma’s destined for the American market are made in Baja Mexico. Mexican made Tacoma’s Vin’s Start with a 3. That may all change in 2001-22 as all Tacoma production will be moved to Mexico from what I hear. So far The whole family loves the Tacoma. This is my second Toyota truck. I had a 1992 4X4 extra-cab for 14 years. I’m hoping to get the same reliability and enjoyment out of this 2020.
Nicely done on the walk-thru. Better than a lot of TV hosts.
Scottie Warman dang man. That means a lot! Thank you!
The Car Creative truth. Your truck is sick, your work is rad and your video are awesome. Keep on crushing it my man. 🤙🏽
Same as mine except I have silver sky , love it great upgrades over my 08 TRD OR. I like my K02s much better than stock Goodyear
Oh ya that’s a big jump from ‘08! Congrats!
Just got a silver 2020 TRD offroad 4X4 like yours but no GPS - will use the Android play anyway...Mostly loving it, seat is way better than the Subi forester I had, higher up ride just right, no need at all for the 3inch lift IMO. I think the Trans is just fine, so it shifts for mileage not THAT bad at all, also if you want more power press the ECT button.
MY complaint is my level does not have AUTO HEADLIGHT ON MODE, you got to be kidding me Toyota41K sticker truck and that not install ??? So I have to manually turn on and off headlights now, heck my 2014 way cheaper forester had that. Still over all Am loving it and planning on 10yrs ownership AT LEAST
Awesome i like the upgrades...Luv that cement color...
I just got a sr5. Too bad they didnt have the sr5 in cement grey, nor the 2020 trd offroad in calvary blue. Other than that. I do really love my sr5 taco. Even the base model v6 is awesome and fun to drive.
Congrats! I miss my Tacoma so much already! Now the weather is finally nice here in Calgary and no off-roading for me =( enjoy yours enough for the both of us 😃👊🏼
@@TheCarCreative I appreciate it! Hopefully I'll get a trd off road down the road soon. Thank you
The wheels are put further back with the full sized bed. So clearance isn't really any different.
Man i love that but I can’t find one like that in the access cab with 6 foot bed. How is the rear lock differential work?
I drive a '16 Tacoma, my safety sense is between my ears😄
As it should be haha. Technology can only help so much. Thanks for watching bro! 🤙🏼
Thanks for the review. What would have been better is if they have the lane keep assist with TSS2.0 which they don’t have. They only have the lane departure alert. Would you recommend the short bed over the long bed? How does the truck handle in snow?
I agree! I actually really loved the lane keep assist. Sad this one doesn’t have it (secretly because it makes vlogging a hell of a lot easier 🤣) ... I mentioned in the video I like the shorter box cuz it fits in my garage better, also the turning radius is much better in the TRD off-road. The truck was amazing in the snow with 4wd. No issues! Love it!
its not a car, unless thats what trucks are called in canada. have you towed with it yet? will you keep it past warranty?
Hey brother! Haha 😅 I realized that I said car and couldn’t fix it lol! My bad! Thanks for keeping me honest 😂✌🏼 I haven’t towed with it no, and I’ve got the through through a contract with a dealership so personally won’t keep it long term but really enjoying it!
@@TheCarCreative comparing it with a gladiator
I personally like that 3 inch lift.
I love my 2019 TRD OR. Went with the mgm color and added a spacer leveling kit with 33s. And yes the ride can be stiff. However I see myself replacing the stock bilstines with a king 2.5 stage 3 setup. If anybody has this did it improve the ride? I also started trailing it and had a blast.
Sounds awesome man! Wish I still had mine for the trails this summer ☹️
What leveling kit did you get?
B B I don’t know the brand. I had Les Schwab Tire Center do it. When I told them I had a Tacoma and what I wanted done I wasn’t sure if they even did that. I mean I thought they only sold tires. But then the guy behind the counter kinda lit up like hell yeah. He pointed to 2 lifted Tacoma’s in the parking lot and said that one there is mine and the other is also an employees. We do lifts on Tacoma’s all the time.
I love mine, but agree THE STEERING COLUMN NEEDS ANOTHER INCH!!
Totally! Needs a bit more length on it!
3:35 i thought the clearance on the short bed and long bed are the same since the additional cab length is added between the cab and the rear wheel
May be true actually, but one thing I did find between the two also was the turning radius on the OffRoad was MUCH better than the sport box.
@@TheCarCreative you can actually get a short or long bed in both the sport and offroad models. It's offered at my dealership
The departure angle and approach angle are the same, but with the short bed the break-over angle is greater meaning a bit better in off-road conditions. Mine is the long bed and I like the extra space. So far (fingers crossed) I've not had an issue with needing a better break-over angle.
I just realized someone was in the passenger side giving mad looks lol
😬 Haha! She wasn’t actually upset. We had a real nice day driving out there. Must have seen some upsetting Covid news or something on her phone hah! Thanks so much for watching!
are the front and side cameras accessible at all times? or only when in 4 wheel drive? would be nice to use for parking in tight spaces as well as off-roading.
holy crap when i noticed your wife in the truck at 14:45 it legit scared me lol
HAHA! Oh man ya, I make her sit through all my blabbing, she's such a good sport. She likes coming out for the drives though and it's nice to have the company.
Dude things badass’ ! Haha!! Honestly I think it suits ya more time to get another 😂 Jk jk but great review man, you already know I’m lovin’ the Tacoma life!! Raptor next? Comparison? 😉
Haha!! Oh man! All the more reason for people to come follow you! Who knows what’s next!? 🤷🏻♂️ raptor? 86? Who knows???
I'm a "bit" late lol.. Currently looking at a used 2020 tacoma trd OR w/ 31K miles on it. Already has the 3" lift as well as the BF Goodrich AT KO2 tires.. IS there any need to regear? I'd use the truck for mainly daily use with the weekend beach or fishing trip on occasion.
What would you say is the average price to install your lift and wheels and tires?
I just bought a tacoma. I love it question. What is the width of your tires? You said is 17" rims and 32" tires but what's the width?
Were you still able to fit the spare tire underneath the truck in the carrier when you went with a larger tire?
Sick truck my dude! Very nice!
That means a lot! Thanks! I really appreciate you watching!
Thinking about picking up a 2020 TRD Sport. But do have a concern with the motor. How is the 3.5L? It doesn't sound as beefy (or trucky) as the older 4.0L. If you owned Tacomas with both of these motors, I would love to hear your opinion and experience.
Owned both in past. 3.5 has more hp. No complaints, you will not be disappointed.
Did you have to get it aligned after installing the lift kit.
*You can also get the 6' bed with the off road model. I have it. 6' is not available on the TRD Pro...
Need help with the lifted Tacoma wheel alignment specs anybody know the right specs? My wheels are rubbing
They lifted it at the Toyota dealer? I didn’t know they could do that.
Yup they do, but us toyota enthusiasts dont recommend it especially if its ur first time owning a truck or buying a lifted vehicle.
These Toyota would install a 500$ lift and some cheap ass wheels and charge you a extra 10k..
Any problem with the safety sense sensor after lifting the Tacoma?
How often do you use your bed and what do you use it for? I'm in the market for a 3rd gen since I dont plan on using the bed due to it being composite.
Hey man! Thanks for the question! Unfortunately I had to return my Tacoma cuz I had in on contract and then Covid hit. Wish I could be more help but I didn’t do any heavy lifting or hauling with it.
You can use the step to get to the top
Finally a decent review on a Toyota... plenty of reviews that I watched always focus on things that shouldn’t matter. Such as interior specs or Toyota hasn’t updated there engines in years. Toyota’s do have enough power and if you want more power there are super chargers, tunes, etc. you can add to them. I will say Toyota is the last of its kind. Toyota focuses on (reliability) and all of their vehicles are just that.
Thanks for the kind words. Glad I was able to be a bit different than the rest 😃. I appreciate you watching.
🎉nice review
Nice truck.what size tires did you use.
mine came with general grabbers. and A CLUTCH. I hate auto trans. I don't know how too drive auto lol. I'm 30. all my other vehicles were standard. I LOVE MY TACO. i do not have the dif lock granted given its a stick. 10 out of 10. yes mine has the lift kit also. doing over 80 and pushing 100 on the highway can be. well. dangerous. dont do it unless your passing idiots mind you. my mpg? 16 or 17 with a stick. ive had mine for a month. winter is almost over and YES i will be taking it off road. issue? price tag. my taco was PRICEY. like a scat pacl challenger pricey. then the taxes kick in lol.
Just bought one.. love it!! 0 regrets!
Good choice! I loved it too!
Enjoy your short, useless bed. Put a camper on it and look like a granpa.
Gray Arctic Fox ..You ain’t all there..
not like it can stop it with those 1960 drum brakes
Yet the haters are still here..lol
What are the exact measurements of your tires?
You can get a long bed in the off road
You mentioned that by waiting until the end, you would reveal your gas mileage findings .... "pretty rough" is all we got.
Hey man, you’re right. I put my first 8 tanks fuel economy in the description for you guys to see. Hopefully that will help a little. Cheers!
Which packages do you currently have with your model? I believe it would be the TRD Premium Off Road Package with the Advanced Technology Package?
That sounds right to me! It did have the extra tech package. 👍🏼
@@TheCarCreative do you find the Advanced Tech package worth the upgrade? do you use the terrain monitor a lot?
TRD Offroad comes in 6' long bed too
Oh no way... good to know. I thought they seperated the boxes into the sport box and off-road box... 🤔
@@TheCarCreative yeah man I got a 2020 voodoo blue TRD Offroad long bed premium package. It's pretty sweet. Love my truck!!
Only with auto trans. Manual only has the short bed
Not in Canada. Off road double cab is only short bed and double cab auto sport is only long bed.
Awesome color 👍
The best colour imo! Thanks for watching!
Great video. What average L/100 Km's are you getting with your set up?
Thanks so much! I posted in my description the L/100! I had a hard time getting it under 14.5 though and I drove very conservatively!
@@TheCarCreative Doh!! didn't realize that lol. Thanks for the info!
I'm surprised the Toyota dealer would install a 3in lift on a new vehicle...............
Whats the actual Metric tire size?
So what was the fuel mileage? Either way, We will be purchasing.
I put all the fuel stats in the description! You’ll love it. Highly recommend a tune to get the gearing sorted better and will help with fuel economy anyway.
What size tires? Specs
Is there a monthly fee for the connected app?
Hey! I believe there would be yes after the first year or something like that? Whatever it is... worth it!
The Car Creative you say that now then they say $30/mo lol. Thank you. Great looking truck
Haha! Ya it could be something silly like that but the first 12 months or something is free so that’s good for me. 😃
What size is your tires and rim size brother? Is your a 3 inch lift
Hmoob Vaj all the answers to your questions are in the video 😋 - 17” rims, 32” tires, 3 inch lift. 👍🏼👍🏼
What offset on the fuel wheels if any? And 32s, are they 285/70's? Looks great, nice video. I bought the 2020 trd sport and want to do 3" same wheels and tires.
What lift and tire size ?
Does anyone know the tire specs?
Are Tacomas sold (available) with manual transmissions in the US?
Yes
I though Toyota wasn't lifting trucks with the Toyota Safety Sense systems.
Nice rig! Stock Gearing?
Yes, the only downside haha.
What lift do you have?
Hey bro, it says it in the video but it is a dealerships installed Pro Comp Nitro kit. 3 inch lift. =) Thanks heaps for watching!
Don’t question the transmission, get rid of the gear hunting with a OV Tune. It will drive the right way!
Its a premium package and it doesnt come with sequential turn signal on the headlights????
My friends have trd sport 4x2 not a premium package but comes with a sequential turn signal. And your offroad premium package is wayyyyy more expensive but doesnt have. 😢😢😢
Possibly a difference between Canada and US? I think here we need to upgrade to the limited, or the TRD Pro or possibly you could option it from the dealer? 🤷🏻♂️
US only feature!!!
Where your upgrades cheaper than the TRD pro?
Tbh I am not sure actually. The dealership put all the mods on for me as a part of a contract. I think is was around $5000 for all the mods but that’s all at dealership cost and rates so maybe cheaper to do it with aftermarket.
How many inches is your lift?
Oh wait it’s 3 inches, never mind lol. Great Truck!
That trucks got a lot of Cali lean
Agreed! How does one fix that 🤔
First song credit?
My first car was a tacoma. I didn't fit... Ford ranger for the win!
Hey man! Thanks for watching! Great to hear a different perspective. 😃👊🏼
@@TheCarCreative dont get me wrong I loved my tacoma haha. But the ranger fit me much better, plus I'm a ford guy. Do you have an insta? We should connect @adv_ranger
TRD Offroad comes with long bed too
Oh shoot! Good to know! =D
I don’t think you can get an off-road double cab long bed in Canada. Only in the USA.
#mostunderratedcaryoutuber20192020
Oh man! Haha thanks so much bro! Hopefully one day it will be rated appropriately haha. 👊🏼👊🏼
got mine today :3
How is it? Did you take it Offroad or tow anything? I’m interested in it to take the dirtbikes out or take a tiny toy hauler with me
@@danielson5045 not yet 😢😢 might next weekend
@@xMrFuzZyKitteH Great have fun!
What wheels are these?
Fuel off road 17”
The Car Creative thanks! Looks great!
No doubt this guy got smacked buying this lifted from the dealer
Got it all for free. 😅 the dealership was incredible to work with.
Gear swap dammit = 5.29’s!
So no mpg numbers whatsoever
Hey bro, you can see all my gas mileage in the description below. You’ll have to convert to mpg on Google or something.
Toyota still needs to Fix the automatic transmission!!!!!!!
Indeed they do! I was just shooting with a Tacoma owner and he got a “re-gear” done on his transmission from a local 4x4 shop and he said it transformed his Tacoma!
@@TheCarCreative the re-gear is with the axles not trans
Sticky plastic interior never looks clean and weird fake leather seats but its a nice truck get the cloth seats and live the smudges everywhere. Cloth seats saves you some money.
You look like Drake from (Drake and Josh )
Haha! I’ve got this a few times... 🤣

Awesome Tacoma! Check out the Tacomas on our channel 👍
Thanks so much! I'll check it out for sure!
