300 miles in on our 24 TRD OR and LOVE the powertrain, seating position, and overall interior layout. HATE the bigger turning radius, feel like I am back in my old full size trucks, and the smaller fuel tank, really worried when I go to tow with it. Overall though its a positive upgrade from our 2020 TRD OR. I love driving it.
Another great video. Seen as high as 26 mpg on mine when traveling on highways. I dont feel like the smaller gas tank is that big a deal, only three gallon loss, but I tend to be more light footed around town so dont find myself at the gas station as often. My dte is showing close to 350 miles now when I fill up. So far no regrets on mine either. Much more comfortable and better drive than my 2021 OR I had.
I've heard they have pretty bad rev hang. I haven't had a chance to get to a dealer yet, but that's the model and transmission I'm looking at. Anything I should know about it? This would be my second car, first truck (current driver is an '06 Pontiac Grand Prix)
You have a really nice truck I just couldn't justify that price personally. I've checked them out at the dealership they're nice like most newer vehicles but it's just that shiny thing It seems like you got to pay more for what used to come standard. & I'm not a fan of turbocharged engines, I've had 3 different vehicles from 2017-2022 all turbo & I told myself once I get a naturally aspirated I'll NEVER go back. Glad u like yours that's what matters, don't worry about scuffs, that's just building character 🤷
Got my blue TRD Sport with premium package on June 6. I agree on the seatbelt chime issue, but I'm not in it long enough for it to really bother me yet! I too wish it had a larger gas tank. Perhaps an aftermarket higher capacity tank will eventually become available? I would much prefer that the gas gauge on my console indicate the actual physical amount of gasoline in the truck as opposed to how many miles left in the tank which stinks. The paint job doesn't concern me much, because I know eventually it's going to get scratched up anyway over the years. I still have a 2001 Tacoma that I had to repaint 4 or 5 years ago after owning it for nearly 20 years. It too has some road caused defects in the paint job. Doesn't bother me. My biggest beef with my truck is the map display. I wish the map would stay in what I call "Due-North mode" where up is always north. Whenever I shut the vehicle off and come back later it reverts back to the default mode. Or if I'm driving down the road and get a text or phone call from someone, it reverts back to the default mode. Annoying! I've only done one mod (other than removing the air dam). I have put in my old "oogah" horn that I've had for more than 2 decades. Super easy!
@@MuscleAmerican I was unaware that there was a different map system between my iPhone and my Toyota system. How do I tell? And how do I switch? As for the horn, my mother gave that to me for either Christmas or my birthday a number of years ago. I grew up with one of our family vehicles have an oogah horn and have always loved it.
My God, the mountains in the background look amazing! Are you in Utah, or maybe the Colorado area? Good video man! That underground color looks sick on the Taco!
No doubt if your dealership did the old slap and scratch through an automated car wash put all those swirl marks on but yeah the paint on most new vehicles is not what it used to be
That “underground” color looks like a total disaster. Wow that would infuriate me with how easily it gets swirl marks in the clear coat. That’s a no go for me. That trucks brand new and it looks like that. Wow, imagine in 10 years what it’ll look like
This is a really good video that describes the truck. I haven’t really had the fuel gauge issue. Mine does however keep it at a 3 gallon reserve when the light comes on. But unless you’re resetting the total Average every fill up that’s your total mpg over the life of it. I know there’s a way to reset that but it’s not an easy one click thing. When I drive just highway and drive like a sane normal person which is very hard to do in this truck I get 24 mpg.
@MuscleAmerican yes,they had me come in and a toyota rep inspected the truck and ok'd the paint correction. fairly easy process and they also gave me a loaner.
I live in Calgary Alberta, I’m going to contact the dealership to see if they would cover it. If they do I will update this. I used soft cloth to wax the truck after car wash and It got minor scratches.
My 2020 Tundra has super soft paint as well. Feel like it's a Toyota thing. I rather wrap the vehicle than coat it. Its a truck though and if you're taking it on trails, I wouldn't sweat it.
@@MuscleAmerican More QC issues being discovered daily. Please watch out for potholes or dips in the road. Looks like your suspension may explode on you. czcams.com/video/gn2Be4jAj_w/video.html
I have the same DTE issue. Only change that I have is my Long Range America fuel tank (33g). The DTE has always reset to 254 miles. Kinda annoying but I still have my analog fuel gauge that keeps (more) accurate levels.
I was watching another CZcams video saying that the color you got was coming from the factory with swirls, you have to get it incorrectly like you said
My only problem with mine is the speedometer is off by as much as 4 miles an hr. Problem is they wont or cant fix it. I honestly will never buy another one because of this. Its 2024 not 1970 if thats off that far what else will go wrong? Hopefully nothing but we will see. 2024 SR5.
I use a gps and the speeds were off. Was my third truck using it and the other two were on. The admitted it was wrong but its within 5% so its ok with them. Its not ok withe me though. I traded my 2023 in on it and regret doing that. Will be my last toyota. Ive had six of them but this one is my last.
Yes. There is no muscle in the new taco and its not American Japanese company made in mexico. Ranger Raptor would have fit the channel name better. American muscle made in Michigan.
How much did Toyota pay you to promote this garbage? And for if some odd reason you actually like this thing over the 3rd generation or even over walking then you have it on that long enough wait until 101 that it has starts coming to surface you are already seen a few of the little things like the quality of the paint there's a lot more you haven't seen yet but it will show it will show its true colors you're going to wish you never sold your third generation this piece of junk!! All I had to do was drive one for 1 hour and I knew this thing was garbage from top to bottom brought up back to the salesman and told him the same thing he actually agreed because I told him straight up don't lie and don't play games with me it screams garbage people need to start telling it the way it is salesman said it's better to buy the 3rd generation and I know he's definitely right about that I was able to test both vehicles check them outside by side boy that Toyota ever screw up with this, I wouldn't sell this thing to my worst enemy but figure this one out the Toyota sells it to their customers!!!! I have never in my life seen a vehicle manufacturer hate their customers so much that they would actually sell this piece of junk to them it's disgraceful and it's very sad!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@truthnow902 Remember when the 3rd Gen came out and everyone was hating on it? No difference here. Don’t get me wrong I loved my 3rd Gen, it was a great truck. But it’s not defect free. It has its own unique set of flaws.
@@MuscleAmerican oh definitely I agree with you the third generation is not perfect but compared to this 4th generation is 4th generation truck has so much problems from mechanical to transmission to drive shafts from the metal that's used it's very cheap in tinny the dash is all cheap plastic I just don't see any quality in this truck at all like I can definitely understand there was a couple little issues but this truck is almost everything about it is bad from top to bottom and I would expect this kind of quality from domestic vehicles but foreign vehicle like Toyota all the experience they have of making trucks and they come up with this like to me it's a disgrace I hope that your truck serves you well these things are very expensive but if you watch CZcams videos there's so many people having so many problems with them like I do feel bad for people in a way but in a way I don't because everybody should do their homework before they buy these things!!!

99% of People that are hating on this truck have never drove one or even sat in one.
Its just soo expensive for me lol
It’s uncomfortable, cheaply made and overpriced 🤷🏻♂️
So true … till you own one and actually spend time on the 4th gen you will see and feel how good it is ..
@@k20z3allmotorFTWjust like every other taco my guy😂
That 4 banger is a deal breaker considering the price of the truck.

Good video. Nice to see you covering a lot of stuff that I haven't seen scouring CZcams. Most of the time it's the same old stuff. 👍
That’s my goal!
I love my 24 offroad manual. It is my 6th Tacoma. I traded in a Pro and still like the drive better

Pro tip, your dealer can turn the seat belt chimer off. All you got to do is ask. Don’t spend money on something that can be done for free.
That’s a good option too. I’d rather have the ability to do it myself.
My dealer wouldn’t do it for me.
How about you put your…… seatbelt on! 🤣
@@mightystocks I do
3800 miles? I have over 5000 in like 7 wks

All you haters out there With those four bangers engines!!! Toyota is bringing back the V6 baby in the 2025
Who’s hating? The V6 is a great engine but it’s dead and not coming back.
Can you get just a normal remote start using the key fob? Or is it only through the App?
Yes the key fob has remote start too
3800 miles? You've barely driven it, hardly enough seat time for a review.
I’m sure I’ll do another one if anything changes
Nicely done & impressive how you show the cell phone screen as well 😁
