I used to buy a Toyota without even thinking about it with how reliable and well manufactured they were. Now with the Tundra and Tacoma redesigns, not anymore. I will wait a few years before I consider one as they have fallen back to the other manufacturers now and prices soared.
Chevrolet/GMC have always gained customers from Toyota who have owned Tacomas/Tundra either because they simply are not sufficient or had severe problems and were a pain to fix....not everyone has the nerve to tell about their Tundra/Tacoma problems in front of the horrible loyalist crowd- they just trade quietly without making a noise.

@@jamesfreeman7954No, He’s from the present where New Toyota Tacoma owners are having their transmissions failing left and right. Metal shavings found in the fluid and Toyota has absolutely zero replacements due to the newness of the 2024 Taco
This happens on first year production vehicles. Keep in mind Toyota makes engines then perfects them and keeps them for over a decade. They usually perfect then keep engines without updates for longer than any other manufacturers. It's going to take a bit to work out the kinks
Check out the 2025 KIA TASMAN mid 30’s choice of engine first time available ever in the us they been making trucks since 72 u won’t be disappointed going to definitely give Toyota a run for their $$$$

I thought the 2016 Tacoma was a failure but by far this New Turbo Tacomas and Tundras are the worst Toyotas of all time…complexity on mechanical and electronics are destroying the brand.
Now people are reporting transmission failures in the 2024 Tacoma. I don't think I would buy one given the lack of rear seat space and the seeming lack of durability of the transmission
I'm glad I didn't wait for this new generation of Tacoma. I wanted to downsize as I didn't need a half ton and bought a Tacoma in 2022 and have no complaints about my truck, and it wasn't as insanely overpriced as these new models. My truck is pretty much an identical spec to this, just the previous gen. Blue Crush, TRD Off Road
@@Rafael-f4c6c it was at MSRP, which is pretty much Tacomas have always sold at. Fortunately and unfortunately, they aren't like Rams and Fords that sit on lots for 6+ months and end up selling way under MSRP because they can't move inventory. But, 2 years and 20k miles later, residual private party value is pretty much exactly what I paid for it
@@FizzleWick1 That's my biggest problem with evs. Not the range nor the charging time. The fact that they're totaled when the battery goes. I have a couple cars between 8 and 10 years old with over 100,000 miles that run just like new. Doubt electric cars can handle that
now the national highway safety commission has received reports of the 2024 tacoma's 8 speed overheating and burning the fluid. this is happening all across the country. soon it will develop into a national recall on every tacoma truck.
Love these summary “farewell” videos. Reminiscing while closing the chapter. As always, keep up the awesome work across all your channels!! This from a non-truck guy 😊
You asked, either a long-term Ranger Raptor or a long-term Colorado ZR2 Bison. Test those things not only off road but daily drive it as if it's a truck. Tow stuff, haul stuff, road trip it.
@jpow8210 I haven't seen much content on it. I hope they drive it across a boulder field, hammer across a washed out road and then move some furniture before they haul a trailer load of lumber 50 miles
We watched Volvo dump the venerable inline 5. We watched Mercedes Dump the NA V8. We watched Dodge dump the hemi. Now we watch Toyota Dump the legendary V6…. These are sad times for car lovers.
Just saw this same tacoma color and all drove next to me. It looked spectacular. Really liked the look of it. As soon as the kinks are worked out, the powertrain is proven and Toyota gets real with their pricing I might be a buyer.
WOW!! You guys are actually doing the intelligent thing and wiping your hands clean of the piece of junk disposable/throwaway 4th gen Tacoma! My hats off to your smart decision!!👍🏻👌🏻
I bought a new 2004 Tacoma TRD Offroad in Sept 2004 for $31,000. I loved it and drove it for 15 years and 260,000 miles. I bought a new 2019 Tacoma TRD Offroad in August 2019 for $32k. It was like a spaceship compared to my 2004. This 2024, new generation Tacoma TRD Offfroad would cost me $52k. So, in 15 years, the price increased $1000 or maybe $2000. From 2019 to 2024 (5 years) the price increased $20,000. I know inflation is bad, but a 62.5% increase in 5 years is outrageous. I thought I'd drive Tacomas for the rest of my life, but now, I can't imagine buying another one.
I wonder if they checked the rear quarter panels for paint chips? I have 3 of these crapcomas leased for work. The rear quarter panel are cocered in paint chips from rocks bypassing the mud flaps.
Well, it is just sad that it broke under conditions that did not seem unusually harsh for off road use. And of course, the Chevy that was on the same trail was unfazed by those conditions. Every one has been expressing concern about the longevity- or lack thereof- of the turbo 4 banger. But that is not what broke! It was the front dif actuator. So the question I still have is: Is this part changed from the previous years of Tacomas and 4Runners(if the same part in both)? Has that part been weakened? Or, is the higher torque rating too much for it? Because I have never witnessed one of those breaking, even when Truck King was thrashing a 4Runner while breaking thru ice to get to the mud. If the part has not been weakened to save a few ounces, or if it is the same part and is able to handle the increased torque, then it is possible that this breakage was just a fluke, a bad part 1 in a thousand. But how can we know? If the part was weakened or it is the same old part but not up to the increased torque, then will Toyota immediately beef up the part? If so, how can we know? Because except for that breakage and the lack of rear leg room, the truck seems quite nice. Though I realize the engine change is not popular, the MPG was impressive and towing seemed pretty good, and comfort much improved. I wonder if anyone else has broken a front dif part? Particularly if adding larger tires?
That depends; - If you are researching to buy the Tacoma, Toyota will tell you it is one-in-a-million and that they beefed up the part and QA so every truck will now be better than all of their competitors. - If you own the truck (without running a multi-million subscriber RUclips channel) and are concerned, Toyota will tell you the part meets all specs as is and your off-road use has voided the warrantee and caused it to break, which you need to pay out of pocket. Oh, and it weakened the rest of the truck too, so no more warrantee. You can of course fight it in court, assuming you have 3 years and half a million to cover your legal fees to do so.
The real question is that how much is getting a aftermarket upgrade to the diff going to cost compared to taking it to the dealer. If you are off roading at least in my opinion you shouldn't expect factory off road parts to last very long.
@Hybris51129 But you would think factory powertrain components that are included in an "off road" trim should be able to handle anything in actual off roading situations short of blatant abuse. TFL wasn't even pushing the truck that hard when the front diff blew up.
@@alexandersheppard1997 You would think but bare in mind of say a 1000 Ford Raptors for example how many will actually see off road use at all? If you are willing to play the numbers that gives the bean counters room to start making cuts because how many people will never know the difference? In this case maybe Toyota lost on the TFL truck but for all the tens of thousands they will sell what is 1, 10, 50, or 100 trucks that end up with a broken diff.
What about the recent issues with the Tacoma Transmissions and top cap in the suspension? How many miles were on the Tacoma when you made the towing test ?
They do. Especially with the crawl control on at the beach when it's hot. Seen a number of them flip it on only to have to stop when the tranny gets hot.
3rd gen Tundra prices are dropping fast. They are running back to the 2nd gen. Toyota fans will settle and pay so much money for obsolescence. The price difference in MPG and initial cost is usually enough to buy a new engine or transmission in another brand.
Guys I enjoy all your videos but since this the last year of the Nissan Titan can you do a Titan Grand finale; ex 1st gen Titan vs 2nd Gen Titan vs XD Gas vs XD Cummins. All are different trucks and do a full comparison. MPG, power, comfort, towing, payload, utility, best all around!! Thank you
Toyota was gonna be my next truck but after everything I've seen & heard I started getting cold feet & your review's on Blueberry put the nail in the coffin. Thanks for all y'all do it really helps people more than you know.
Do not buy a new Toyota truck or SUV. They are all riddled with big problems. You have been warned. Take it easy and save your money for something else.
The price of New Trucks and SUVS changed how I now think about transportation. Ive legit changed gears and my next car will be a $26k Jetta that gets 40mpg.
I rented an Off-road version in Dallas last week. Never owned a Toyota before but the controls are in odd places, wasn’t impressed with the power. Small interior. Sounds like a little diesel
I want naturally aspirated (No replacement for displacement), the 4 cylinder is just working to hard and relies on the turbo!!!!!!!!!!!!! They can keep it.
You should have kept this until the transmission fails....There seems to now be an issue with the rear ends and transmissions..Manual and auto transmissions.....and no transmissions to be had for the time being.
Great video guys. Lol i never had any intention to buy the Tacoma, but for some reason i still watched all your videos on it. You guys just make them enjoyable to watch.
Toyota has turned into a major disappointment. Engine and transmission problems combined with astronomical prices has destroyed this brand’s credibility.
I want the new tiny cheap Toyota truck remake that apparently isn’t safe enough for the US. They expect us to be able to afford a 40-60k or more “American” sized truck.
I recently got a new 24 Colorado for sub 30k. It is a WT, but it’s still pretty dang loaded. Always wanted a Tacoma, but their prices are insane right now
Hello Andre and Roman. Thanks for all your great reviews. I'm sorry, but I would like to remind just a few of you who might have some small challenges to see that some really good vehicles are made to cover other needs than your own, which is also called respect for other people and their needs. (It's not the Tacoma). I understand why you are testing the vehicles ability to reduce the speed in downhill slopes without active down- shifting or use of cruise- control and the importense of this for unexperienced drivers. You have often also told the importense of using a lower gear, and I'm completely agree in that. I don't know the requirements in the US, but to get a driver license for heavier trailer or lorry in Norway, we must show that we actively will choose lower gears or for a lighter vehicle we might sometimes use cruisecontrol, but if it's not downshifting we shall activate a lower gear manually. I understand that the US are a big country with climate differences like we have in Europe. In Norway it's required to use winthertires in the wither, and if you are stopped without propper withertires you will get a hefty fine and cannot drive on before you have mounted wintertires, and in an accident you will lose the right for compensation. And a lot heavy vehicles from sothern Europe must either turn home again or mount wintertires on the border. Back in time we were allowed to use offroadtires, but the passability in difficult conditions with my Land Rover Defender was so much worse that I started to use proper wintertires in winter conditions. One thing is the much better safety even on clean and salted roads, but on bad and hilly trails in the wintertime it's just fun to drive in 10 inches of weat snow with good wintertires on the LC. Thanks for your great reviews. Best Regards from Arne in Norway
For sure Toyota got their money's worth out of this series of videos. So many videos with this truck. What ever Toyota is paying or doing for TFL, they got plenty of video time.
@@angelgjr1999 Also the transmission was overheating. It seems the automatic transmission will overheat when towing near max loads or driving hard. The manual transmission is just failing with under 5,000 miles. Toyota has no answer for this and no replacement transmissions for the manual. Those owners are totally screwed right now.
It only has 7k miles it better not lol. But you gotta unload the new tacomas at 7k so the turbo doesn't bite the dust w the engine. I wonder if they'll all die at 100k miles.
the last tacomas were also made in Mexico honky. Or perhaps you will choose the buy the American made tundras? They are equipped with a good engine-self destruct feature.
@@Rafael-f4c6c That's true but not ENTIRELY TRUE. They were also made in Texas! I specifically bought one made in Texas because I always try to do the right thing when purchasing. Now they took that option away and I am gone as a customer. See how that works.

%!00 Agree. You will lose at least %25 at dealer buyback or trade. This video is all about powdered sugar toyotas junk. Everything is wrong with the truck and they pretend It was great. Differential is so weak, transmission overheats, engine will probably have recalls.
the avg. Joe would never receive 4K loss, it would be way more. It is not what you know in life, it is who you know.
They’re lucky to get one that cheap sr5 is currently going for 65k
They only got that deal because of their connections and fame. Otherwise you would never trade a brand new car in, you’d just sell it on marketplace.
They are having transmission issues now, overheating ect. Check that out! I’m a die hard Toyota fan, owned many. These new ones I won’t buy until they figure all this stuff out.
These guys not only had a differential fail, but also had the overheating issue as well. They tried to gloss over it because they were impressed at how nice the dealership treated them during the repair. Nice try TFL!
@@ramfan5149 🤣 No one is falling for it. I’m a Toyota fan boy for sure, but only because of a tracker record of being reliable.
That truck will sell thousands of Frontiers.
Exactly
Funnest damn comment I have seen in a long time 🤣🤣🤣
Simply…and well said🤓
Cheaper and simpler. V6 NA engine. Frontier is the better truck
Their are comments that are great. 😃
This truck was a pretty big disappointment, not only was it unreliable but its completely new and yet its still not as good as the Colorado or Ranger
What would you say the Ranger and Colorado are better at than the new Tacoma?
@@officialyasirnot breaking
This Tacoma is disappointing no doubt, but the Ranger and Colarado are both overpriced, overrated piles of crap as well.
The frontier is much better. Better on price.missying some bells and whistles but it WORKS AND DRIVES

@@andyleo8418so far I don’t think it’s too bad. I don’t plan on buying this truck. I just think it is a little pricy. However, all the issues they experienced is mostly first year problems. And none of the problems are engine related. Compared to the tundra. These issues will get worked out. I’m more concerned about the TT V6.

Getting rid of it before it is too late, smart move TFL
I thought the 2016 Tacoma was a failure but by far this New Turbo Tacomas and Tundras are the worst Toyotas of all time…complexity on mechanical and electronics are destroying the brand.
Now people are reporting transmission failures in the 2024 Tacoma. I don't think I would buy one given the lack of rear seat space and the seeming lack of durability of the transmission
I'm glad I didn't wait for this new generation of Tacoma. I wanted to downsize as I didn't need a half ton and bought a Tacoma in 2022 and have no complaints about my truck, and it wasn't as insanely overpriced as these new models. My truck is pretty much an identical spec to this, just the previous gen. Blue Crush, TRD Off Road
if you bought a tacoma in '22, it was definitely over priced. lol
@@Rafael-f4c6c it was at MSRP, which is pretty much Tacomas have always sold at. Fortunately and unfortunately, they aren't like Rams and Fords that sit on lots for 6+ months and end up selling way under MSRP because they can't move inventory. But, 2 years and 20k miles later, residual private party value is pretty much exactly what I paid for it
I want to see how baked that JBL speaker on the dashboard is after 1 year 🤣
giving it up before the transmission breaks and you have to call them out on it. smart!!!
At 15:22 you mention the tiny volume knob. Totally agree, same problem on my GR Corolla. Replace with RAV4 knob, huge difference.
Even though gas may lose half its range towing, you can refill it in about 5 minutes. Electric cars can't do that

I'm so happy I bought a 3rd Gen Taco before they got phased out, and I just bought my wife a 2024 5th Gen 4Runner. Looks like I made the right choice.
We can acknowledge the Nissan Frontier is the Tacoma we've been looking for?
You asked, either a long-term Ranger Raptor or a long-term Colorado ZR2 Bison. Test those things not only off road but daily drive it as if it's a truck. Tow stuff, haul stuff, road trip it.
Yup that’s what they always do with the trucks 😊
@LafemmebearMusic If I was going to pay 60k for a truck or would need to do more than just drive over rocks lol
They already bought a long term ranger raptor but good thought.

What?? I thought you were gonna put 300K miles on it? Getting rid of it at 7k miles, what a joke of a vehicle!
They knew they better dump this disappointment while it’s still has some value left.

Best decision you guys have made. The new tacoma's are throw away trucks.
All vehicles post covid are disposable
$50,000 wasted?
We watched Volvo dump the venerable inline 5.
We watched Mercedes Dump the NA V8.
We watched Dodge dump the hemi.
Now we watch Toyota Dump the legendary V6….
These are sad times for car lovers.
Government trying to make ICE super lame so folks consider electric crap.
Blame the New World Order.
This is what happens when you let California dictate their emissions "standards"
I would hardly call the 3.5 legendary..... Now dropping the 4.0 in the 4runner vs updating it now that is a sad day.
Still have the legendary 5.0 V8 in the Mustang…..for now. I hope Ford continues to keep the V8 in the Mustang for as long as possible
Just saw this same tacoma color and all drove next to me. It looked spectacular. Really liked the look of it. As soon as the kinks are worked out, the powertrain is proven and Toyota gets real with their pricing I might be a buyer.
Time for TFL to get a Frontier Pro4x for review.
Thank you for all the videos! Unfortunately you guys got swamped by a lot of haters.
Thank you for the video great truck!
WOW!! You guys are actually doing the intelligent thing and wiping your hands clean of the piece of junk disposable/throwaway 4th gen Tacoma! My hats off to your smart decision!!👍🏻👌🏻
Your channel is so awesome. Just found it. You two are amazing people thank you for what you two are doing.
And here I was thinking of selling my 3rd gen 2020 trd pro couple months ago. Glad I held on to see the resale go up now
I bought a new 2004 Tacoma TRD Offroad in Sept 2004 for $31,000. I loved it and drove it for 15 years and 260,000 miles.
I bought a new 2019 Tacoma TRD Offroad in August 2019 for $32k. It was like a spaceship compared to my 2004.
This 2024, new generation Tacoma TRD Offfroad would cost me $52k.
So, in 15 years, the price increased $1000 or maybe $2000.
From 2019 to 2024 (5 years) the price increased $20,000.
I know inflation is bad, but a 62.5% increase in 5 years is outrageous.
I thought I'd drive Tacomas for the rest of my life, but now, I can't imagine buying another one.
Glad I passed on a new Taco. One year with my Canyon AT4 and so far I’ve been very pleased with it.
What year is it ?
best looking truck in the market
I wonder if they checked the rear quarter panels for paint chips? I have 3 of these crapcomas leased for work. The rear quarter panel are cocered in paint chips from rocks bypassing the mud flaps.
Well, it is just sad that it broke under conditions that did not seem unusually harsh for off road use. And of course, the Chevy that was on the same trail was unfazed by those conditions. Every one has been expressing concern about the longevity- or lack thereof- of the turbo 4 banger. But that is not what broke! It was the front dif actuator. So the question I still have is: Is this part changed from the previous years of Tacomas and 4Runners(if the same part in both)? Has that part been weakened? Or, is the higher torque rating too much for it? Because I have never witnessed one of those breaking, even when Truck King was thrashing a 4Runner while breaking thru ice to get to the mud.
If the part has not been weakened to save a few ounces, or if it is the same part and is able to handle the increased torque, then it is possible that this breakage was just a fluke, a bad part 1 in a thousand. But how can we know? If the part was weakened or it is the same old part but not up to the increased torque, then will Toyota immediately beef up the part? If so, how can we know?
Because except for that breakage and the lack of rear leg room, the truck seems quite nice. Though I realize the engine change is not popular, the MPG was impressive and towing seemed pretty good, and comfort much improved.
I wonder if anyone else has broken a front dif part? Particularly if adding larger tires?
That depends;
- If you are researching to buy the Tacoma, Toyota will tell you it is one-in-a-million and that they beefed up the part and QA so every truck will now be better than all of their competitors.
- If you own the truck (without running a multi-million subscriber RUclips channel) and are concerned, Toyota will tell you the part meets all specs as is and your off-road use has voided the warrantee and caused it to break, which you need to pay out of pocket. Oh, and it weakened the rest of the truck too, so no more warrantee. You can of course fight it in court, assuming you have 3 years and half a million to cover your legal fees to do so.
@@Cloud30000preach!
The real question is that how much is getting a aftermarket upgrade to the diff going to cost compared to taking it to the dealer. If you are off roading at least in my opinion you shouldn't expect factory off road parts to last very long.
@Hybris51129 But you would think factory powertrain components that are included in an "off road" trim should be able to handle anything in actual off roading situations short of blatant abuse. TFL wasn't even pushing the truck that hard when the front diff blew up.
@@alexandersheppard1997 You would think but bare in mind of say a 1000 Ford Raptors for example how many will actually see off road use at all?
If you are willing to play the numbers that gives the bean counters room to start making cuts because how many people will never know the difference?
In this case maybe Toyota lost on the TFL truck but for all the tens of thousands they will sell what is 1, 10, 50, or 100 trucks that end up with a broken diff.
And then Toyota wants to charge you at the top of the market for these vehicles plus have dealer markup is ridiculous
What about the recent issues with the Tacoma Transmissions and top cap in the suspension? How many miles were on the Tacoma when you made the towing test ?
Just bring back a lever transfer case lever both for Tacoma and 4Runner. All I ask.

3rd gen resale just went up. People don’t want this 4th gen Tacoma anymore, especially for the price.
3rd gen Tundra prices are dropping fast. They are running back to the 2nd gen. Toyota fans will settle and pay so much money for obsolescence. The price difference in MPG and initial cost is usually enough to buy a new engine or transmission in another brand.

Do not buy a new Toyota truck or SUV. They are all riddled with big problems. You have been warned. Take it easy and save your money for something else.
The price of New Trucks and SUVS changed how I now think about transportation. Ive legit changed gears and my next car will be a $26k Jetta that gets 40mpg.
I rented an Off-road version in Dallas last week. Never owned a Toyota before but the controls are in odd places, wasn’t impressed with the power. Small interior. Sounds like a little diesel
I feel like this was one of the quicker vehicles TFL has gotten rid of and I don't blame them with all the ongoing issues Toyota has been facing.
It was let's get rid of this thing before it blows up, but everyone you should all buy Toyota and it's not a big deal.
It's like their Land Rover Defender. Get rid of it quickly. More than once. So Toyota is the new Land Rover.
I want naturally aspirated (No replacement for displacement), the 4 cylinder is just working to hard and relies on the turbo!!!!!!!!!!!!! They can keep it.

Hello Andre and Roman. Thanks for all your great reviews. I'm sorry, but I would like to remind just a few of you who might have some small challenges to see that some really good vehicles are made to cover other needs than your own, which is also called respect for other people and their needs. (It's not the Tacoma). I understand why you are testing the vehicles ability to reduce the speed in downhill slopes without active down- shifting or use of cruise- control and the importense of this for unexperienced drivers. You have often also told the importense of using a lower gear, and I'm completely agree in that. I don't know the requirements in the US, but to get a driver license for heavier trailer or lorry in Norway, we must show that we actively will choose lower gears or for a lighter vehicle we might sometimes use cruisecontrol, but if it's not downshifting we shall activate a lower gear manually. I understand that the US are a big country with climate differences like we have in Europe. In Norway it's required to use winthertires in the wither, and if you are stopped without propper withertires you will get a hefty fine and cannot drive on before you have mounted wintertires, and in an accident you will lose the right for compensation. And a lot heavy vehicles from sothern Europe must either turn home again or mount wintertires on the border. Back in time we were allowed to use offroadtires, but the passability in difficult conditions with my Land Rover Defender was so much worse that I started to use proper wintertires in winter conditions. One thing is the much better safety even on clean and salted roads, but on bad and hilly trails in the wintertime it's just fun to drive in 10 inches of weat snow with good wintertires on the LC. Thanks for your great reviews. Best Regards from Arne in Norway

Did the transmission have any issues? Serious questions!
