When I started watching your channel, I didn't feel much about the Tacoma either way. I've changed! Now, it's one of my favorite vehicles. Old school, but like a canvas on which to paint one's personality and put the world on notice. The Tacoma's a great pick!
The head liner difference is because the orange one has a sunroof and the glass needs somewhere to go when it's open. That's one reason I don't like a sunroof is because you lose head room space.
Great Vid! Some key differences between the 2016 & 17 model years and the 2018+ models that stick out for me was the introduction of Toyota Safety Sense P (TSS-P). Then, there was the 2020 refresh that introduced the newer nicer grills, Apple CarPlay / Android Auto, power adjustable drivers seat. The power adjustable drivers seat was a game changer. this allowed me at 5-11" and my wife at 5-4" to both find a comfortable seating position. The auto in my 2020 TRD Sport DCLB 4X4 was hunting for gears sporadically at first. It's well know that the ECU in these Tacoma's have a soft component of A.I. that can learn and adapt to your driving style. It took a while but the gear hunting has been virtually been eliminated. If I were to disconnect my battery for 30 minutes then connect, the ECU will be reset to stock values and will start gear hunting again until it relearns. Also there were many software TSB's issued by Toyota since 2017 to address the gear hunting. 2020 Was the last year of the software updates AFAIK. However, I have just heard there may now be one last software update that supersedes the 2020 software. that may be what's in that 2023 Pro. Gorgeous truck BTW! Yours is looking as awesome as ever.
2022 Off Road gears hunts depending on scenario. Everything is stock from factory, no different gear ratio's either. Should have all the latest ECU Updates which should also include T-SB-0077-16
@@BrosFOURRSpeed This is my first Tacoma, so I don't have anything to compare it to other than my past cars. I'm still highly considering a KDMax or OVTune.
who did your vinyl for your '17 model? I love the way you accent Toyota on the back of your '17, I just recently purchased a 2022 Electric Lime TRD Pro and mine came with the tailgate inserts. However, the way you did the vinyl on the back of your '17 Tacoma, would really make the lime green pop just as your blue comes out.
Also I Hope The Next Gen Toyota 4Runner Maybe A 2024 MY Some Like That With A All New 4th Gen Tacoma For Toyota Also A 6th Gen Is Better Next Year In 2024 As Well.
That makes zero sense, it gear hunts for everyone. It’s something known in the Tacoma community. I can drive an auto lol, if you can’t drive an auto, you shouldn’t be driving at all lol
Is the head room on the back of the Tacoma because of the sunroof?
Possibly! I didn’t think about that!
Toyota: *Produces 3rd gen Tacoma for 8 years*
Nissan: “Hold my beer.”
What did Nissan do aside from copy the Tacoma design lol 😂
@@BrosFOURRSpeedI love Nissan, but I always love to poke fun of the 2nd gen Frontier for hanging around as long as it did😂
@@noahjohn2001Nissan kept the 2nd gen Frontier for 15 years with barely any changes (2005- 2020)
Great video - good honest evaluation. I’m taking delivery of a 2023 TRD Pro in Solar Octane in April. Videos are helping keep me sane while I wait.
Lol, congrats!! You’ll enjoy it!!

My 2019 off road has the adaptive cruse control.
Wonder if it’s apart of a tech package.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed maybe mines pretty decked out, the stock speakers in the access cab are not the best. It will probably be my first mod
The new 4th gen tacoma should be coming out April 4th! Can't wait to see you do a review on it!
I can’t wait!! I hope to be able to check one out asap!!
Nice comparison between years. I am looking forward to your review of the 4th gen later this year.
I can’t wait to check that out!!
Lexus should make a truck, would be weird at first but all the comfort and quality in the interior would be awesome. I'd buy one
There’s a lot of comfortable and nice interiors in other trucks! I don’t see a Lexus truck selling lol, but would be cool.
I agree with you about the Tacoma bestie.
Thanks!

@@drdarkman2000 regearing fixed my issues fine! Helped with the tires, so a stock truck, a tune would be better and less expensive.
something about that blue is beautiful
Thanks! I love the color so much!

Your comparing sun roof model to non sun roof model that's why they put that divot in the head liner.
Yeah I figured 😂
@@BrosFOURRSpeed By the way the back seat is for dry storage!! they put seats back there to save us on insurance!!LOL
@@cbayless4294 That’s actually not true lol, back seats don’t make insurance less.
2016 - 2023 tacoma is still 🔥
wow the cameras on the pro have horrible image quality
Really? The Hero 10 is one of the best cameras you can get now. Also using a canon M50, so not sure why you think that.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed was referring to the 360 camera on the TRD Pro. Your video's quality is fine.
@@commbubba1990 lol I misread that 😂 yeah it’s way worse then my 2017! Not sure why!
Nice
If your Taco is gear hunting, you really don't know how to drive an Automatic trans vehicle.
That makes zero sense, it gear hunts for everyone. It’s something known in the Tacoma community.
I can drive an auto lol, if you can’t drive an auto, you shouldn’t be driving at all lol
