  • Toyota at its best!!! - 2005 Toyota Tacoma
    By -

    PreRunner 4dr Access Cab TRD Off Road, love the height of the vehicle. Great clearance, cabin space, wheels, engine. It seems like its a vehicle that will last for a very long time. Moved up from a GMC 98Jimmy and feel very happy with the change. My wife loves this new truck. I cant wait to accessorize it with all the toys for the bed and the cabin. Its a little bumpy though for the streets in Puerto Rico, although I think all pickups are (first pick-up). Got around 18mpg on my first tank, well see how it goes on.

    Damn near perfect. Smooth ride, fun to drive and looks GREAT. A rock solid truck from Toyota. Toyota is showing they want to play and are willing to do what needs to be done to play with the Big Boys. Great interior creature comforts and a peppy 4cyl engine that is more than enough for the average homeowner. Good fuel economy as well.

  • Beware of Delphi Battery - 2005 Toyota Tacoma
    By -

    Great truck; however, the GM parts contribution of the Delphi battery spewed battery acid all over the inner fender and hood. $836 (warranty paid) and two weeks later (in a rental car, also warranty paid) the body shop is still trying to repair the damage. So, including the battery the total cost to repair is about $1306, or 8% of the purchase price. Other than that I love the truck and cant wait until I get it back. I suggest not taking delivery until the GM battery is changed out.

  • Worth the Money, buy one you wont regre - 2005 Toyota Tacoma
    By -

    Super truck on all levels. Design, fit, finish and materials are at luxury car levels. Researched all compareable trucks in detail and the Tacoma excells in every catagory. I dont have many miles on it yet, but the comfort factor along with the driving enjoyment justify the purchase. I love it and it appears that most other motorist do as well.

  • Really Fun Pickup - 2005 Toyota Tacoma

    Have had the truck for three months. Great handling truck on mountain roads. Great sense of stability. Plenty of power to pass when there is little room in which to pass. Great rear seat accomodation for grandchildren.
