It has a great engine hasn't broke down if you take care of it it will take care of you.
We love our truck it has had several recalls like rust protection on the frame , replaced the drive shaft but all have been resolved we've traveled a lot with this truck and when it's time to trade it in i will get another Toyota

It's the perfect size - big enough to haul some things, but not so large as to be unmaneuverable. Very minor problems (gear for automatic door lock stripped.) Fairly easy on gas. Could use a bit more power, but it rides/drives well as is.
I have the access cab, which basically means it's a two-passenger vehicle, and the space behind the seats is better for storage than for riding.

Our Tacoma works well for us as a trick that fits our family but doesn't cost a fortune in gas.
We needed a truck with a backseat but didn't want a large one with poor gas mileage. We got everything we wanted with this truck.

Runs very well for its age (260k miles) and should last at least till 300k miles.
I love absolutely everything about my Toyota Tacoma. It is smooth riding. Love the body style & reliability.

Reliable and easy to maintain.
I have had almost no problems with my vehicle and I feel very confident making frequent trips to Colorado. It is very reliable and easy to maintain and work on myself. I love the 5 speed transmission paired with the 4WD. This combo is becoming hard to find now.

Toyotas hold up great and run forever.
Toyotas are great, but I hate the jump seats in the back and prefer a four-door model with regular seats in the back. Very awkward loading anything.

Tacoma review, for any individual that may consider a Tacoma prerunner.
Bed is to small, great truck to get around. Ok in gas, comfortable seats, great cabin space. Small to fit on most parkin buildings. Great towing power. Keeps about 80 percent of exterior noise out of cabin. It is a very popular size pick up.

Toyota is a trusted vehicle.
I have had no problems with my vehicle. It is a great truck. I would recommend Toyota to anyone who is looking for a vehicle. I have always liked and trusted Toyota and they have great customer service whenever I have to go in for anything. Don't think I would look anywhere else for a vehicle.

Great truck, great gas mileage.
My Toyota Tacoma has been the best truck ever! Seven of my co-workers have bought Tacoma's on my recommendation! None of them have had any issues either! Just, under no circumstances buy your Tacoma from a Preston dealership in the western Pennsylvania or eastern Ohio area!
accountCircle James H on December 16, 2020
It isn't great for hauling stuff like a full sized truck but has plenty of interior room.
This is a great mid sized truck. It gets pretty good gas mileage for a truck because it is a 4 cylinder. It runs great but recently the air conditioning went out.

Toyota is a great vehicle to have.
Like- reliable and dislike- not enough room for storage space inside the truck. I like it because it gives me no problems but think I need a car.

Blue 2009 Toyota Tacoma double cab with short bed. Four wheel drive.
I have had this truck since it was brand new. The truck has almost 200,000 miles on it and is still going strong. Toyota customer service is wonderful and the truck has given me almost no problems over the last 10 years.

Small capable truck that meets all my needs.
I really like my Tacoma. It is a small truck and is able to fit everything that I need to put in it. I haven't had any major repairs to do on it - just regular maintenance! I got the manual transmission and this has made it a fun vehicle to drive. The only thing is that I wish I had more passenger room.
accountCircle Sandra A on October 7, 2020
The 2009 Toyota Tacoma is the perfect vehicle for males, females, and families. Up to five passengers can safely and comfortably fit in this sporty, yet economical, truck.
I absolutely love my truck. It comfortably seats 5 passengers safely. It gets great gas mileage during day to day travel. It has plenty of room in the truck bed to haul things. When I am needing to merge with traffic, once I push the accelerator, the truck is ready to go....no hesitation whatsoever.
accountCircle Chris W on August 28, 2020
Decent on gas and handles well in snow for a 2wd.
Very reliable vehicle with low maintenance. I have 140,000 miles on it. Basic maintenance has been done over the years I have had it. I would recommend Toyota to consumers. Only issue for me personally is it is difficult with children because of the size.
accountCircle Betsy A on August 22, 2020
Its of high quality, made by a well known brand and it handles great.
It's comfortable, easy to drive, easy to maintain. The only thing that i don't like much is that it consumes too much gas.

2009 Toyota Tacoma - reliable & comfortable.
The 2009 Toyota Tacoma has been a very reliable vehicle so far. I have had it for three months. I have had no problems other than a tiny rear differential leak that is very common for a Tacoma of this age. I am pleased with the safety rating and plan to keep this truck when my husband and I start a family. It is a smooth ride with a comfortable interior that makes road trips even more relaxing.
accountCircle CJ A on August 4, 2020
The truck runs good, gets me from point A to point B.
Like it since it is a small truck that fits in the garage. Don't like it because it doesn't have all the bells and whistles that I would like. Also the headroom in the truck is low.

It's paid off and I should be able to get at least five more years out of it.

Rust
I purchased 2009 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-road Access Cab (new) in April 2009. At that time, I did purchase "rust proofing" and "protection plan". It ran well when it was new, now (145 000 km) however, it is ready for "scrap yard". I have replaced exhaust three times, replaced rear shocks, replace two manifolds, and replaced transmission (lost transmission due to rusted transmission line). Now it is showing extreme rust on the undercarriage, including brake lines and rear bumper. I had hoped that a Toyota product would serve me better than any domestic vehicle (Ford, Dodge, Chev or CMC products). I guess I was wrong!!
accountCircle Malissa K on May 6, 2020
Pretty reliable vehicle if maintained properly. It drives good and had a good amount of room in the cab
Vehicle is great except the daytime running lights melt the plastic cover around them. No actual recall were made on these.

Good for our family road trips!
My vehicle is great, I use it for work. I do need a bigger ride since my family is growing rapidly. Have not had any problems with this vehicle so far. I love the inside very relaxing and beautiful blue color. It runs very nice and gets me to where I need to go on a road trip.

I love my little Toyota Tacoma!
I love my 2 door small pickup truck. I refer to it as "light and zippy" as it maneuvers easily and quickly. I've had it for 9 years without any major problems. It did need to have the water pump replaced on it right under the 7 year mark. Other than that, just normal wear and tear and maintenance. I love this truck, would recommend it to anyone. I consider it my "starter" truck as I plan to own slightly larger Toyota trucks in the future.

The Tacoma is a very useful and reliable truck. It's comfort features are pretty good.
My truck is very dependable. I wish it had GPS and a radio that bluetoothed to my cell phone. I had to replace the headlight assembly because the running lights melted the plastic and Toyota should have replaced it.

This truck can serve many purpose with day to day task.
An awesome truck has never let me down. Good interior, gas is not even an issue, the 4. 0l engine works great Tacoma will run forever if you take care of and I know this truck will crank every morning. Also great for transporting. The seats are ok but not the best. Plenty of power, great handling and always feel safe to ride in.

It has an excellent safety record along you to drive confidently.
I have a 4 door Tacoma Forerunner with AT tires. My drive terrain is around town/interstate driving as well as driving on backroads and off roading (fields, dirt roads, through rivers & creeks) I never fear my truck will break down in the middle of nowhere leaving me stranded. My ride is comfortable and simple- just like I like it. For a 2009, it has up to date features to make your ride easier. Lastly and most importantly, it has excellent safety rating to keep my entire family safe.

Overall, happy with my Tacoma
I purchased my Tacoma used about two years ago. Other than the expected maintenance, I haven't had any issues. The suspension is a little stiff but that is to be expected with a truck. This is my daily driver and it's overall a comfortable ride, long distance however can be a little uncomfortable because the lack of lumbar support. The only other issue I have is the size of the bed, it is neither wide enough or long enough to transport a sheet of plywood, for example.
accountCircle Britt P on September 8, 2019
Small issues with my 2009 Tacoma.
Body rust. Seemed to start rusting sooner than other vehicles. Electrical system. Headlights keep going out and are not easily replaced. Have had electrical system issues with other Toyota trucks especially wiring harnesses. Front steering. When making tight turns in either direction, there is a noticeable clunking from the front end. Changing to 4WD. Sometimes there is a definite thud when switching to and from 4WD.
accountCircle Connor B on June 21, 2019
Terrific, excellent, dependable.
My Toyota, Tacoma is a great vehicle that takes care of a lot daily duties. Its comfort is great, I have never been a fan of leather. Period. So having a truck that doesn't have leather at all (or nearly) is so very nice. The seat are reliable and well rested, the clearance of the vehicle is quite satisfying as well.
accountCircle Brad B on June 19, 2019
The 2 gen Tacoma, best truck out there.
The 2nd generation Toyota Tacoma is the most reliable truck you can get. Not only is it easy to work on, such as oil changes and brake jobs, but they are super reliable. Along with being easy to work on, they are awesome to customize to your own liking. Great for off roading, great for bad weather and snow.
accountCircle Stephanie N on June 1, 2019
The drivable and reliable taco.
Not very many problems. I haven't had any difficulties or need major parts to be. Probably have put $500 total since I have had it just to do tune up and fluid changes. It is incredibly reliable and super comfortable and roomy. The performance is amazing. So much power for a v6. I love my Tacoma! No matter what year it is it will run forever. The engine is still strong and perfect for off-roading.
accountCircle Debbie C on May 26, 2019
It's a pickup but the interior is just like a car. But its a truck.
My Tacoma always starts even in the worst winter conditions in Illinois winters. The 4 wheel drive is great in our winters. It's very comfortable with lots of room in the back seat as well as the back bed.
accountCircle George S on May 24, 2019
Dependability is the most important thing to me when talking about the Tacoma.
I have owned my Tacoma for 9 years and I love it. I have never experienced any major mechanical issues. I have just made sure that I had the recommended services performed at the appropriate intervals. We have two kids and we have never had a problem with the whole family traveling together. So, space is not an issue. I do not plan on replacing my Tacoma any time soon, but when that day comes, I will definitely be shopping for another Tacoma.
accountCircle Ed K on May 14, 2019
That it is like new and it gets service per schedule in owner's manual.

accountCircle JOSHUA F on May 3, 2019
Fast, black, sports looking truck.
It's a good truck for just about anything. Between going for long drives on the weekend to hauling or using it for work. The inside is also a nice design and easily to keep clean. The outside is very fine looking and the bed is handy, has an outlet for charging anything.

I like my vehicle because I have not had any issues with it. I bought it brand new in 2008 and have never had to take it to a mechanic. Only for oil changes and had my brakes terraced once. I don't like it because it doesn't have room for more than 1 it 2 passengers.

Very good running and comfortable.
No problems run good. I have had it for five years and it seems to be running very well. Had the transmission replaced a couple years ago running good since. The ride is comfortable and sits a lot of people on the inside. I would not want to ride in another vehicle since it has been so good.

Tacoma, just as good as tacos.
My trick is very reliable, even after 100k miles. It gets done everything I need for my current situation and is perfect as a medium size truck. Decent gas mileage with lots of options for modifications. If I could change anything, I would like a lyft kit and have it 4 wheel drive.

Toyota Tacoma review. It's a great vehicle!
I really hadn't had that much in the way of problems, which is great. I like the feel of the ride in it, not choppy like most trucks. It fulfilled all my needs when I went to buy it. It had just enough features to make me happy without paying more for things I didn't need.

Toyota is a great car company to do business with and if you take care of and service your vehicle regularly it will run forever!

This is a very nice mid size truck. Great on gas but. We haven't had any major problems. However, note that when it does require repairs it cost more than an American car. I would highly recommend this truck. Great for travel and jobs. Much easier to drive and park than any other large truck.
