For a little truck, I love it. - 1996 Toyota Tacoma
By Bob - July 21 - 11:43 amThis truck has been great. The truck was bought with 40k miles,and now has 267k. The only problem has been the catalytic converter, I am now on my 3rd. Beyond that, everything has been great, just regular maintenance. I am starting to feel a slight slip in the transmission when I shift from reverse to drive. The ride is not the most comfortable, ever since I bought the truck, I have felt every bump and crack in the road. I love this truck and feel it has gone well above and beyond what was expected of it.

Tacoma Tough Club - 1996 Toyota Tacoma
By Paul71 - January 24 - 10:00 amBought my 1996 Tacoma in 1999. First owner really drove the truck hard, but still it is in great mechanical shape. Ive continued to drive the truck hard and have never had any problems with it. I wholeheartedly recommend this vehicle to anyone in the compact pickup market. You cant beat Toyota quality.

By Toy4Life - October 16 - 10:00 amI bought this truck used just over a year ago and it was the best vehicle i have ever owned. I used to drive a 1991 toyota 4x4 and i loved it, but this Tacoma is miles above!! Plenty of power for hauling, and it is just a great looking truck!!!

Unbreakable? - 1996 Toyota Tacoma
By niugreg - May 9 - 2:06 amWords cant describe how happy Ive been with this truck. The most reliable vehicle I have ever owned. Im nearing 205,000 and it is just as solid as the day I brought it home. I was hoping to get 200k with it, but now Im shooting for 400k before I even think about replacing it. No rust, no rattles, nothing leaks and no major problems. Last brake job lasted 3.5 years and 83,000 miles... amazing!

Tuff Yoda - 1996 Toyota Tacoma
By MBW - March 6 - 9:33 amWow, this has been the best vehicle i have ever owned. I feel it has a very attractive body style compared to other small trucks, and I can overtake every small truck I race (V-6). I have gone on multiple road trips across the US with no problems. This truck has NEVER left me stranded. I would certainly buy another one, however gas is getting a little expensive. Overall, a darn good buy!

Reliable little truck - 1996 Toyota Tacoma
By IAGuy - January 22 - 2:20 pmI am the original owner of this truck with 100k. The only non maint. item was the starter. 30mpg, tight turning radius. Downside: bland looks, cramped interior, terrible seats. Also has high wind/road noise and is easily blown about by high winds.

240000 mile and going - 1996 Toyota Tacoma
By oilfieldtrash - January 10 - 8:26 pmA few experiences with this - 1. the frame broke while going 5 miles per hour. Toyota fixed it and gave us a loaner till the repairs were complete. 2. Front tie rod separated at Sams while getting tires. Both event 1 and 2 would have probably involved a injury if going faster than 5 miles per hour. The battery to starter cable seems to be a occasional problem. The suspension is shot. The seats are worn out. The insurance is high on this vehicle.
