Drives well handles well have an issue with tire pressure sensor, someone broke it when installing tires, inside is nice extra cab full of power for small truck and Toyota's are built to last 6 speed transmission and even like the color may get another one when I am ready to upgrade and can afford it.

My vehicle is a 2008 Toyota Tacoma extended cab.
I bought my pickup new and have had no problems at all up to this point. It has 198000 miles on it and all I have done is routine oil changes. I cannot say anything bad about my pickup.

A midsize pickup truck for people who actually need to use one.
Easy to work on. Easy to find, and fairly inexpensive parts. Fantastic 4-wheel drive. Smaller than an f-150, yet larger than a ranger. Comfortable and fairly quiet interior. Great acceleration and towing strength. Much more appealing body design than the frontier.

It is stick shift with a sticky clutch, so it is difficult to drive.
I like having a pick up truck for moving purposes. It runs well and has presented few problems. It is also a stick shift, which I personally prefer.

Extremely comfortable and reliable truck.

Good truck I would recommend.
The truck does not have too many issues that happen expect it does require a tire alinement pretty often and the muffler does brake often to other then this it is pretty repayable it doesn't have the best suspension so it is very bouncy on bumps that's what I've experienced.

Has never failed me. 10 years and 150000 miles.
I've had this vehicle for over 10 years. Toyota is super reliable, and affordable. It's A brand that my father trusted and after all this time I've never had a problem. A recall within the past couple of years, but the gracious staff were very helpful. I've come to expect nothing but the best from Toyota and I recommend this brand to anyone who asks me for car advice.

Very Reliable, that's my favorite thing about Toyota, especially Tacoma's
We own a 96 Toyota Tacoma that still runs great, no issues so we got this model for my husband to drive to work, as well as myself. If you keep the maintenance up, we have never had issues. It's absolutely a reliable truck, powerful, and never once left us stuck on the side of the road. This model is pretty comfortable, especially compared to our older model, which wasn't very comfortable. The four wheel drive in these will go in big snows & rains. We are loyal to Toyota Tacoma's!

Durability of the Toyota Tacoma
My Tacoma is comfortable and has a good smooth ride. It is also very reliable and durable. The body looks good but I have problems with paint chipping since the day I purchased. The interior of the vehicle needs to be a touch roomier. Suspension also squeaks but all Tacoma's seem to have this issue.

2.7 engine prone to head gasket issues
I LOVED my truck. I looked high and low for it and was thrilled to find it.... And then disaster hit. Water from the rad went through to cylinder #1. In order to work on this, the WHOLE ENGINE NEEDS TO BE REMOVED. Cost then becomes crazy- a hard decision to rebuild that motor, replace for just a little more (but still be prone for head gasket issues), or just toss up and buy another vehicle.... I am so completely disappointed. Shattered.

Family vehicle, dependable, reliable.
I have had this truck for about 5 years and I couldn't be happier! I drive my 2 kids around during the week and can take it off-road on the weekends. The gas mileage is fair for diving in city, I fill up once a week. The one thing I do not like about it is the size of the back seat, there is not leg room. Other than that it is our family truck and we love it.
Celeste D

Ups and downs of a Tacoma.
The paint is awful. Needs a wheel bearing, and the tpms light never goes off. The clear coat finish “melted” away from the sun, and now it is starting to rust. Other than that, it has been pretty reliable. Tires can be expensive, but that is to be expected when you own a truck.

The versatility of the Toyota Tacoma is outstanding.
The Toyota Tacoma is a versatile vehicle for everyday use, regardless of whether you need the hauling capacity all the time. Runs great, even after 10 years of use. The interior has held up nicely and even the dash still looks pristine. Highly recommend the Toyota Tacoma.

My Tacoma is a Reliable vehicle and I Simply Love It
I got this car with 45,000 miles, so far I didn't have any problems. Only thing I've done is regular oil changes and recently I did the brakes. It's not the most comfortable car but I knew from the beginning that I was buying a basic truck for work. It's an okay miles per gallon, about 22. Performance wise, it is AWESOME; strong, fast and very reliable truck. As I said my truck is a basic single cab Tacoma, stick shift( I love that feature) and for the money; you can't go wrong. So far It has 121,000 miles and going strong. I LOVE MY TACOMA
Scott K

No problems, it drives good. It has a lot of pick up and has never left me stranded. It's got leather, 4 doors, side rails, bed liner, power outlets. It has a CD player too. I would recommend this truck to anyone who wants good performance, durability, and good looks.

2008 Toyota Tacoma review.
As far as reliability goes, my Toyota Tacoma surpasses my needs. It has been eleven years since it was purchased, and it still runs just as well as it did the day I bought it. It is also comfortable to sit in the driver's or passenger seat. There is space to fit two more people in the seats in the back, though space is very limited. The interior of the truck is aesthetically pleasing to the eye, and the colors on the control panel light up at night. It air conditioning, and heating also work well for the extremes of the seasons in New England, or wherever you live. All in all, it is a very durable and comfortable truck.

Black Toyota Tacoma truck with 2 door
I've had this car for years; always get offers in my windshield to purchase my truck. Not surprised, because Toyota makes reliable and long lasting vehicles. I've never had any issues with my vehicle in the last 8 years I've owned it. Besides regular oils changes and maintenance. Over the 8 years I've owned this vehicle I e spent close to $3000 for upkeep.
Jimmy P

This is one great, reliable truck.
I bought my Tacoma used. It was well maintained prior to my purchase and continues to be. It's very comfortable to sit in. The tires I use, off road type, is a little loud during highway travel. Being an older model, I would really like to update the radio. Aside from that, it is really a solid truck.
Scott K

Reliable in bad conditions.

2018 Tacoma general review.
Base model doesn't have many extra features that are standard in modern vehicles. Mileage varies between 16 and 17 mpg. Very reliable. Repair costs are fairly expensive. Gear ratio could be better for a 6-speed. Handling and turn radius are good. Burns headlamps out fairly often, which is a known problem with this model.

Toyota Tacoma: a comfortable truck.

Toyota Tacoma, fantastic 4x4 vehicle.
My vehicle is fantastic. I love to go camping and take roads less traveled. With my vehicle I am able to go on 4 wheel drive roads which takes me to fun and less explored places. With my Tacoma, it is a solid truck that allows me the freedom of driving to great places.

I have the base 4 cylinder model. It lacks power and torque. Looks wise it is just plain. If you are only interested in a light duty truck to haul yard trash to the dump once in a while or drive to work and back it's the perfect truck. Great on gas and reliable.

Best truck I could ever own!!
I love my truck! It is very comfortable and a very smooth ride. The steering column can move up or down and I can see perfectly fine over it and out into the windshield, which is amazing because I am only 5 feet tall. The back seats also lift up and reveal some "secret" storage underneath.

Best truck on the market! It has great mileage and the drive is super smooth.
My Tacoma is very reliable, easy to drive, it is a manual so it has quite a pickup. I so far have not had any problem with my truck and have owned it for over 4 years. The seat are super comfortable, the seats just seem to conform to your body. I have an extended cab so the back seats are able to fold up or keep down. It is a bit sung in the back seat but great for storage, or driving kids around. Overall this is the best truck I have owned and I have owned quite a few. I am a Tacoma lover and would never own anything else except a Toyota truck.

Makes Toyota a brand I am proud to drive!
Good in snow with 4W drive. Has never needed fixing except for oil changes. Very sturdy truck most of the time. I was rear ended by a Dodge Ram going 50 mph. By the end of repairs, my truck still runs as good as it did before. It still looks new at a distance and I wouldn't take one of the new Tacomas if it had been offered. The low tire light makes sure I don't forget to check my tires before I end up with flat. Taking out the back seats is easy so that carrying my 2 dobermans is convenient. Also has plenty of storage with bins behind the rear seat and under the floor.

2008 Toyota Tacoma reliable but has issues with power steering at ~90k miles.
I have been driving my 2008 Toyota Tacoma for nearly 10 years and have had a great experience up until the last year or so. The car has always been reliable and handled well, however, in the last year (as it approaches 90,000 miles) there have been issues with the power steering pump and the power steering hoses. This has totaled about 2,000 dollars to fix. Other than that the car has had relatively few issues and I am satisfied with it.
Barbara L
on November 20, 2018
Without question, the most dependable vehicle.
This pickup has almost 90k miles and we have never once had an issue with it. It is consistently performed extremely well. Of course, we take very good care of it, using synthetic oil and changing it every 5,000 miles (more often than necessary, really). I expect this car to easily go another 90k miles.

Reliability is second to none for a the small truck market.
