  Cant buy a better truck - 2001 Toyota Tacoma
  By Mark - May 11 - 4:20 pm

  One solid reliable truck. I had an 89 2dr toyota truck with 180K and only changed a fuel pump. When I upgraded to the 2001 I couldnt be happier. I could use a little more leg room. Ive take it out in some heavy snows and tried to get it stuck, cant do it!

  Evaluation - 2001 Toyota Tacoma

  The truck rides like as SUV - very smooth. I have done no repair on it yet - there has been no need. This is a great highway and offroad truck.

  Best Truck (Vehicle) Ever Owned - 2001 Toyota Tacoma
  By polliar1 - January 17 - 7:03 pm

  Besides trying to boost the value of my Toyota Tacoma, I thought Id let you know this is by far the best truck Ive ever owned. 82K miles and still drives better than the day I purchased this used vehicle.

  Wife took over my truck! - 2001 Toyota Tacoma
  By Rod - December 9 - 4:43 am

  In my previous review, I mentioned longer life for brake rotors, come to find out the front brakes were under excessive load and not balanced with the back brakes. Problem has been fixed and I am proud to report smooth stops! The truck is great and I plan on keeping it until it drops dead around 500,000 miles. Truck has plenty of room for your "stuff", SUV owners should consider this truck as an alternative with more room in the back (-w-camper shell). It is easier to park in the smaller spaces at the shopping center, I traded a size pickup for this reason got tired of backing up and trying again to get into a spot.

  2001 Toyota Tacoma - 2001 Toyota Tacoma
  By Toyota Lover - December 9 - 4:26 am

  I bought this vehicle brand new in 2001 and still use it for delivery business. I have put 328000 miles on it with only minimal problems. Replaced auto transmission at 300000 but that is the only thing major gone wrong with this many miles. Still starts easily and drives perfect. Does not smoke or burn oil and runs like a sewing machine. Most dependable reliable vehicle ever owned.

  Super Truck - 2001 Toyota Tacoma
  By Racin Rus - December 3 - 2:20 am

  I have own this truck for 4 years now and still love it. The sporty lines are awesome and the drivability is great and has plenty of ponies to get around people when I need to go. Handling is the best feature on this truck. I would reccommend this truck to anyone looking for a fun to drive small truck. Only draw-back is I am 64" and could use more headroom, but tilt the seat back a little and I make it work.

  Great Truck - 2001 Toyota Tacoma
  By Mike - July 12 - 12:03 pm

  Awesome truck, no problems at all. Bought it with 130,000 miles on it and it runs like new. Has the rear locking differential which makes a huge difference on snow and ice (not a substitute for 4x4 though). Have around 300 pounds in the bed - havent had to worry about getting stuck in the snow yet. Its a handsome looking truck. Well designed on the exterior. The interior has a few problems, most notably being the location of the clock. The seat belts dont always retract, but thats not a big deal. Gas mileage is about 17 mpg, maybe a little more. Great truck though. It is 2wd but is still a very capable truck.

  Recommend to Anyone - 2001 Toyota Tacoma
  By kinnywayne - March 9 - 10:00 am

  Very happy with my purchase. Bought it used. Took it to the Outer Banks, NC and rolled all over the beach. 4WD and power through the sand very surprising, considering I bought the 4 cyl. Good size and easy to park unlike some of the other trucks in its class (not real bulky but still rugged looking.) Would definitley recommend this vehicle to everyone.
