The Perfect Combination? // 2024 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-road PREVIEW

465 lb ft of torque. For perspective, the 3UR (5.7) V8 in the last gen Tundra makes 402 lb ft. It always felt like it had plenty of power. This Tacoma is going to have some performance.

Thought the hybrid iForceMax only offers in the limited, pro and trail editions? Thanks for your honest review. Most YouTubers either hype up about the rear seat legroom or ignore it.

Even supercharged, the current V6 Tacomas are lacking in the torque department. I am pushing close to 400lb/ft torque(crank) on my 4,900lb second gen and it's just enough to be quick. 465lb/ft low end from a hybrid turbo on the new Tacos is gonna be awesome! These trucks definitely need the extra torque. Can't wait to see what tuners are gonna do with these.

Great review. Informative. I am impressed. I plan to buy at the end of 2024. I tow a 2900 lb Casita and haul camping gear. Does “that specific truck” have 1705 lbs of payload or is that the max for a properly configured Tacoma? The previous gen Tacoma was weak on payload.

Its hard to not get distracted by that sick looking GX550 in the background.

I'm surprised at your height you don't have an issue with the sunroof. I'm 6'3'' and always have issues with sunroofs unless I have the seat all the way down. Still prefer one without one even if I fit. Thanks for the review.

Most underrated reviewer on YouTube. Now let me be narcissistic for a moment. I won't buy an oversized full-size that won't fit in my garage well. I currently have a 2023 Colorado Trail Boss. It has been a great truck. Pulls the 5000lb boat great. Fits me at 6'2" and sub 5'6" wife and kids fine. Zero problems. The only thing having me consider something else is I have gotten 14 mpg over ten thousand miles and I see myself as more of a Toyota(and/o rBMW/MB) guy then Chevy. What do you think of this (or Land Cruiser) vs the Colorado? Am I buying dumb looking at getting rid of my paid off truck and likely having some payments again? (get a newer boat as current one is 7 years old)

I want to know if you can get the wheels without that chrome trim, if you can opt out of the auto tailgate, and if you can opt out if the pneumatic seats for the TRD pro and get regular seats with the same red camo pattern and material? Any info you could relay would be greatly appreciated 🙏

Jax - Did you ask if you will be able to get stripped TRD Off-Road with I-Max Hybrid or will you have to add the premium package?

What do you think? 45k for that with the I force max? With the limited, trail hunter and pro trims above that I can't see it being much more.

I understand they are using the goofy front air dam to meet mpg ratings, but it’s still hideous. They could attach a sharp edge to bottom and use the truck to mow that field. I have yet to see the TRD Off road with a 6’ bed. I hope it’s offered in that configuration. The Toyota website doesn’t show that is will be. Nice overview.

are moonroofs standard on the TRD's models or is it just part of a premium packoge?

Which one is better off road or limited?

They need the access cab/ 2 door with a 6 ft bed in TRD Pro

Not a fan of that big air dam up front. That would come off day 1 for me.

When are they suppose to announce pricing?

I rather have trucky old than trucky expensive. If the Tacoma creeps into full size territory, then I will wait for the Ramcharger 1500.

Man there so much hate here. Funny how it's by far best selling truck in this size.

Cool rig ,love that color :hand-orange-covering-eyes:

I'll never do a hybrid...
