The 2006 Toyota Tacoma has a towing capacity of 3,500 to 6,500 pounds depending on the engine choice. That gives it a tongue weight of 350 to 650 pounds at the hitch receiver. The bed on the Tacoma has a payload capacity of 910 pounds with the 4Cylinder engine, and 1,685 pounds with the V6 engine. That is very competitive compared to other small trucks that are on the market. The 2.7L 4Cylinder engine produces 180 pound feet of torque, and the 4.0L V6 produces 266 pound feet of torque. This is very competitive fort a truck that size from that era. If You are looking for a great reliable small truck then the Tacoma is one of the best choices on the market.
