  • Nice Truck! - 2008 Toyota Tacoma
    By -

    This is my second Toyota Truck, but have owned several Toyotas (I was a Toyota Master Tech years ago). I bought with the SR5 package (which is a MUST), aluminum wheels, and a factory hitch. If you want to buy the stripped version, drive the SR5 first, trust me. I installed a factory Toyota RS alarm also. This truck is the perfect size. My 1990 was a little small, but this one is perfect.

  • Sweet Truck! - 2008 Toyota Tacoma

    I moved up from my 03 Tacoma 2.4L engine for this one. This truck has all the "bells and whistles" my old truck lacked and I love it so far. Powerful V6 engine, tighter turning radius than my smaller 03 Taco had, smooth shifting automatic. Its very comfortable for me to drive although there seems to be a good amount of wind noise at freeway speeds. Around town its quiet and seems to be rock solid so far. Keep in mind, I only have about 175 miles so far, but at this point Im very happy with the truck.

    I have had this truck for two years now. Great truck. Very comfortable to drive. Good power when pulling boat. Had to have windshield trim replaced. About 20mpg. Very happy with this truck.

    I own a Double Cab PreRunner long bed truck. I like the SR5 option package. Good mpg around 18.

  • Best truck on road - 2008 Toyota Tacoma
    By -

    I owned a 1990 2 wheel drive Toyota extra cab for 18 years. Best vehicle I ever owned. I sold it with over 300,000 miles on it. I wanted a 4 wheel drive new p/u. I love this pick up more than any vehicle I have ever owned or driven. It is a fast and good looking p/u. I love the stereo system/cd player. It has a lot of pick up and contrary to reports Ive read my pick up is very quiet. Ive had no problems at all in the 14 months Ive owned it. Although the running boards look great, they are in the way trying to get into and out of the p/u. I would never own any other kind of mid- sized truck besides the Toyota. To me it is the best truck on the road. Bar none!

  • The Best turck in the world - 2008 Toyota Tacoma
    By -

    I bought this truck and it only had 15,500 miles on it and i love it. It is very stylish and their are so many great add-ons that you can buy for it. I love it being that its not to rednecky like the other trucks. It has class.

    Just bought this to replace my 01 Jeep Cherokee Sport. While it has the TRD Off Road package, it still rides better than the Cherokee did. I love it so far and cant see that that changing anytime soon.

  • Best truck I ever owned - 2008 Toyota Tacoma

    I got this truck about a week ago after being on deployment in Afghanistan for around 7 months and am loving every second with it. Its fun to drive, and surprisingly good on gas. Its a gorgeous truck, and I have gotten many compliments on it. I got the TRD Sport Package, and the added hood scoop gives the truck a tough, offroad look. The 4 wheel drive is more than capable, and it rides really well on the street. The included Bilstein Suspension, makes potholes and bumps feel pretty much non existent. I dont think I could be more pleased with it, and look forward to driving it for 10 or more years, since of course it is a Toyota.

  • Its a Truck - 2008 Toyota Tacoma
    By -

    I bought the truck in Greenville, SC. Moved 2 kayaks, boating & camping gear, coolers, etc., from our van into the truck at the dealership. My son and I headed off into the NC mountains in search of whitewater. The 4x4 system worked great. The truck had enough room for our 2 week trip. The double doors made the Access cab useful. The cab has great storage areas.

  • My Little Red Truck - 2008 Toyota Tacoma
    By -

    This is an awesome truck. The new body style is very handsome. I also like that the truck is bigger than before. Fuel mileage is wonderful, especially due to gas prices these days. The dashboard is very nice in appearance & functioning. The interior is quite roomy, and comfortable. The truck handles well and responds nicely when need be. We purchased the LWB and it is very handsome on the truck. The ride is like you are in a cadillac. This is the only vehicle Ive ever had that has the audio controls on the steering wheel and I must say thats a good place for them. I most of all enjoy the fact that I can sit in the drivers seat and reach whatever I need without having to stretch.
