My New Tacoma!

So what was the purchase price Nframe?

How much more would the 4wd model have been?

That is a nice truck...enjoy it!

Well, the midsize trucks are now the size of a 90’s full size. The 2019 V6 has about the same HP and torque as a 90’s V8.

So the new midsize is the old full size.
And if you plan to off-road, the new full size trucks don’t fit the trails at all.

I bought a 2019 SR v6 4x4. Pretty basic truck, no bells and whistles.
Sticker was $34903.
I was out the door for $30134.

Nice!
I haven't actually seen one in that color yet.

The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

Thought about a Tacoma for the 2014, but love the roominess of the Tundra.

Enjoy...

I have smaller trucks, ( Mazda-Ford Sport Trac), and if I upgrade would go with a larger truck, the Tundra in an extended cab version ( no more 4-door trucks for me). Most likely would purchase a used Tundra.

Any input on your Tundra ?

To orignal poster, very nice truck in an attractive color !

No more white vehicles for me.

I purchased my first Toyota truck in 1990 and have never looked back. It was an SR5 V-6. I now have a 2012 Tundra Limited 4X4.

Not running down any other brands, but is is so nice to purchase a vehicle and not have to take it back for continual problems.

Congrats on your purchase!

Nice truck.
Tacomaworld forum is as bad as Sigforum for spending money.

Best aftermarket upgrade--LED light system in the truck bed. Now I can see what's in the bed.
2nd best upgrade--Pedal Commander. Actually allows the V6 to act like a V6.

Congratulations, I think you’ll like it. I’m on my fourth Tacoma.

I recommend upgrading the map lights and dome light to LED. Less than $20 and makes a world of difference.

Awesome choice, my 2008 TRD off road just hit 105k miles and I passed it on to my son, he plans on keeping for another 100k

Congrats!!!

I’ve got a 17 Pro with manual trans. A little over 115k miles on it and no major issues

Expect to get 24-36 months out of the battery. Seems to be pretty typical from what I’m seeing. I replaced mine a few weeks ago. It started to get weak about a month ago and finally gave up. It was swollen

Thanks Nframe, I bet you will get great service from your new Tacoma.

I am a pick up guy. And I need one and use them.
Having the bed to haul can be critical for some. I know it is for me.

On upgrades, do not discount Firestone airbags for the rear end. They are awesome for loading and keeping the rig in balance. I have them on my Tundra and are awesome.
