I'm proud to say we make these here in Wentzville MO. I personally help build the seats.

Literally the best looking truck I've ever seen!!!

AWESOME truck with one big problem: 16/16 mpg is just terrible. If the MPG doesn't bother you then it's one super sweet rig @ a reasonable price point.

[chrisdemas]

If they could have actually delivered some 2023’s that would be great, only a handful actually made it to a dealership while hundreds have new in “in transit” for months. New CEO gonna kill this company with her “stop building to keep supply tight” strategy.

Really nice looking truck. I think its better looking than most midsize trucks. I do wish, they would work on the mpgs and bring that upwards. I'm not a fan of the piano black around the shifter specialy the glare you get off of it.

The price is absolutely fair for what you get on this ZR2. I always laugh at the Boomers that find it necessary to proclaim that their full-size truck was $40K maxed out just 7 years ago.

Interesting they did follow the Silverado ZR2 with the exhaust tips being tucked under the bumper to give the departure clearance.

Ill keep my V6 2023 Taco PRO. Give the ZR2 a few years to see how reliable it is..

[wallywest]

Pretty nice truck! Not spending 52k on a Chevy midsized though lol.

[stevenk]

I looked at a Colorado Bison 2 years ago, they wanted 55k for it and wouldn’t budge on the price. I ended up buying a used 2019 4runner sr5 instead. I paid more than I wanted to spend, but it came with a 3” King lift with adjustable reservoirs, SCS brushed copper wheels and 275/70r17 BFG KO2’s.

This look way better than anything Toyota or Ford has brought to the table..

[rodneymcdaniel]

If they would just offer it in a manual transmisson! Thanks toyota for still offering it in the tacoma!

[CreateYourWorth]

Are these only direct injected engines? if so, they will not last long. Toyota I think continue to produce direct and port injected.

I like the semi distracted 14 point turn. This is every day with my wife talking to me while maneuvering in tight parking lots. 😂

[mcruz]

Nice truck!. It is neck and neck with the 2024 Tacoma TRD Pro in the looks department.

[ita]

Buy it, have a second mortgage payment for 8 years, and never have saved any money to someday retire.

[tepa]

I’m a Tacoma guy and will not change my mind

[PANG_]

I like that theirs a button to wash the bottom camera wish they did that with all cams

[sigdorseysigler]

What has GM done about the trans/torture converter issue. It's kinda hard to buy one when I know for a fact they have issues. I don't like wrenching, or going in for service.

[bradbruggeman]

Sorry GM, Tacoma offers a V6 and a manual tranny. I vote Tacoma for that reason alone.
