I had a 2024 Tacoma for 4 months before my wife told me I needed a bigger truck for our family, so I got a Tundra. But that little 4 banger just wanted to especially in sport mode. I was very impressed, especially after having one 2nd gen and two 3rd gen tacomas. Cant knock it til you try it. Even my non-hybrid Tundra likes to move in sport mode.

I'm glad you mention pricing and how so many people only look at the $65k TRD Pro pricing. Meanwhile, 99.9% of people don't need a TRD Pro or even a TRD Off Road.
But the same people who complain are more than happy to compare it to a low end half ton and say the top of the line mid sized trucks are too much 😂.

It's not just mid sized trucks that are too much. Everything has gone way up in price.

The premium package with the bigger screen makes so much of a difference to the look of the interior

[joseperezpaz]

Wasn’t a fan of the new Tacoma until I drove it. Comfier than previous Gen with effortless powa!

[JEB]

I wish Toyota would listen. Larger fuel tank is a must…low range especially once you have a small trailer on it…it’s a pain in the ass.

Picking up my 2024 TRD OffRoad tomorrow. Can't wait to enjoy a new truck again. I remember the days of the 22RTE, which is still a sought-after engine for the nostalgic crowd, and that engine put out HALF the power of this new one.

Thanks for being honest, Jon. Please post another video with an update on the check engine light issue once you learn more. That is a surprising issue for a new Toyota. Hopefully they move quickly to address these issues. Your channel is invaluable for the consumer, as it forces Toyota to pay attention and fix the issues.

I'm glad you mentioned the paint, it's really poor. I have the same color and the same issue. However, if you go on the lot and look at new ones that I'll call flat like underground, they are all as you indicated.

[krysistheabyss]

Just got a trd off road after trading in my sti. Just got the 4x4, locking rear diff, and sway bar disconnect. freakin love this truck. Drives so nice, suspension feels great. Taking it on the trail Sunday to see how it does all oem.

"Lets talk about the very first dislike" Boom, Ad. youtube doing too much with ads now

[rickthomas]

I have an underground TRD Offroad and the paint a legit complaint, but it's weird because I get a ton of compliments on it. It's an awesome color. But the fuel tank is awful. It's been my only real complaint.

The 2.4 hybrid in my Land Cruiser is a beast and WAY better and more fun to drive than the 3.5 v6 was. 3rd gen taco is such a dog albeit a reliable dog.

[_Jake.From.Statefarm_]

Mangaflow sounds good, I have it. It's worth it. Waiting on intake and turbo options..

[trxmigz]

Everything you said was legit and I agree ! My biggest pet peeve with my 4th gen vs my 3rd gen is how long the transmission takes to change directions. Going from park to reverse to drive etc

[TheTacomaEnthusiast]

Hey Jon,

Just wanted to say your channel has motivated me to buy a 2024 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-Road Hybrid and start my own YouTube channel with content based around the new truck. I'm hoping to one day have a channel as cool as yours! Keep up the great work, I love your channel!

Excellent video Jon 👍.Q2 mid size truck sales. 1.TACOMA 47.879/2ND COLORADO 26.901/3RD FRONTIER 20.219/4TH CANYON 11.351/5TH GLADIATOR 10.489/6TH RANGER 9.030/7TH RIDGELINE 8.626. OPINIONS Of keyword warriors and haters don't really matter and Tacoma keeps staying number one selling mid size truck in it's segment while the haters keep crying

[Geronimo.Victor]

I was driving through a neighborhood at dusk the other day and saw a pair of headlights/fog lights coming toward me and I was like, "Tundra"...nope, got closer and it was a 4th gen Tacoma. They definitely look like Tundras sometimes.

[Gerardhh]

I have about 12k on mine and it’s been to AZ and back. It’s been a Beautiful ride

[AaronPace]

Same underground, with 6MT. Paint I agree. I did all the paint correction myself. I figured it was just the dealer getting their hands on it first. But interesting everyone has it. But after a lot of work, I also coated and is good to go now

[PaulPeralta]

I agree with your list of pros and cons. My underground also was delivered scratched AF, so my dealer has to correct and I had to pay to get it PPF’d and further PC’d. One thing you missed is that the paint thickness is very very low, like 1.1 mils (barely anything).

One correction is regarding the exhaust tip. It looks low because the rear bumper is a high clearance. It’s no lower than the previous gen.

My biggest gripe is the lack of the back seat space. I won’t upgrade to a Pro because of the new iso dynamic seats in an already tight back seat area.
