I'll stick with the 3rd Gen. No one who considers speed a need buys a Tacoma of any generation.
It's the same horsepower. The big difference is the torque at low rpms. Which makes a big difference.
If you aren't considering low end torque, you probably don't need to be considering a pickup to begin with.
I absolutely get the torque argument... owned many trucks of many brands for a variety of work/pleasure purposes. I don't think my 2021 TRD Pro lacks a thing, torque included. I also still have my 2003 TRD Off Road with the bullet-proof 5VZ-FE, whose light weight only adds to its off road nimbleness and effortless crawling. I can definitely appreciate torque for towing, and maybe that's where the 4th Gens may really shine in the long run, but straightline racing, as in this video, is a bit of a joke. That being said, I'll wait to see the long-term performance and reliability of the 4th gen vs 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Gens. Haven't seen the 4th Gens, yet, do anything the others cannot. No shade on those who are buying the 4th gens. Good luck with your new trucks and hope they serve you well for decades to come.
I've had a 1st gen 3rd gen and driven a 2nd gen. 3rd gen feels the weakest and slowest.
Ott tune the 3rd gen
For anyone who has driven both, not a surprise. The 4th gen is quicker, faster, handles better & brakes quicker. Them’s the facts!
trucks aren't meant for racing. i'll take 3rd gen for longevity and reliability
Just because it's a new engine doesn't mean it isn't reliable. As long as you keep with the maintenance both trucks will last long. People always Say how diesel engines last forever and most of them are turbocharged.
Agree 3rd all the way
You say that but trophy trucks are a thing.
Also, Baja mode!!!!
No one buys a Tacoma for speed😂
I dont need speed, I got family 😂
He shouldve used it in manual shifting like the 4th gen. It responds quicker
The true test is 0-300k miles. I'll take the gen 3 over the 2024. Time will tell.
If your only consideration is making it to 300k, sure I’d agree. Most people though don’t keep their vehicles for near that long.
Now THIS is the content i like.
I want to see 3rd gen w/ ott tune against 4th gen. Please. I can be 3td gen. 👍🏻
For 20k more the new model is .5 seconds quicker yay!
Agree lmao makes no since lil 4 cylinders they had to add a turbo to to make it a v6 might as well add one to a v6 make it a v8
That 4th gen shiffting is awful
Switch drivers between the trucks. Each have their own technique.
No shite it’s turbo. Now load up the trucks and overland for 3 months and see what Gen wins.
Probably still the 4th gen lol
Well with the better suspension and cameras the 4th can even watch you falling behind.. it’s just a better truck all around. Just don’t get a manual. Unless you like 1970’s long throw sticks… sloppiest manual I ever drove was the 2024 taco manual…
@@Mikef1969 suspension is better on the 4th gen! that’s not what the recall said!!! lol
@@TacomaJordan prove it!!!
@@EK99_00 recall was for the leaf spring taco’s like the gens 3’s… No recall on the upgraded suspensions, might wanna read more…
He’s shifting so 😅 let’s see the 4th gen don’t do Manuel shifting
I love the way the 4th gen looks..... But me pulling a trailer from time to time with ATVs and camping gear on a 4-cylinder turbo will not last long.
If I wanted performance I would have kept both of my Camaros.😂
I’m not sure that’s based on anything with substance. There’s now quite a few turbocharged engines on offer in half tons and midsize pickups, and they seem to last just fine.
I'll keep my 3rd gen..longevity and reliability are king and the 3rd gen wins hands down in the category.
I have a 3rd gen and just recently acquired a 4th gen.. I have yet to miss anything about the 3rd gen.. 4th is that good..
are you guys in Utah county?
We are! Orem!
Who puts loud music on a race? That is a time to listen to the engine.
They are acting.
3rd gen all the way! Definitely not the first few years of a new redesign truck
If I wanted some fast I would’ve bought something else.
4runner drivers be driving around like BMWs. Annoying af
You can add a supercharger to a 3rd gen and it will smoke the 4th gen and it will still cost you less
The 4th gen motor will
Blow around 50k 😂 I’ll stick with the V6 👍
There was nothing wrong with the 3rd gen it is a good vehicle .... the 4th gen prices are a bit rediculous
The white trd sports looks nice with the wrap. If u lift it and put better wheels and tires I think it would look better than the pro.
Consider maintenance. Once the turbo has actuator failure or oil leaks or overheating issues then the 3rd makes more sense. OTT will improve on 3rd gen with K&N intake mod and putting in sport mode with help with acceleration.
Tug war only way to find out 🤣
This guy really shifting a tacoma lolol
All the 3 gen owner talking shit about 4 gen cause they can't afford 4 gen it's funny. 4 gen it's more beautiful than 3 gen 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I bought a 21trd offroad because I wanted a naturally aspirated v6 that would last forever. If I wanted a fast truck With a small turbo 4 cylinder I would have bought a ranger.
They say faster and more torgue with the new Gen. The next test will be durability and longevity in the years to come.
3rd gen are before all the way if you want a turbo just add it to the 3rd gen but we keep them stock for reliability
Just wait until the hybrid tacoma comes out. far more power and torque than the basic 4 cylinder
Lets do that again with my truck his turbo will blow.
Make one with a supercharged 3 gen
Load it down. Add all steel armor etc.. Add the 35’s let’s talk
If it's about the driver not the vehicle , then why the race?
A truck with a 4 cylender sucks you want a turbo add one to a 3rd gen period
We'll see in a couple years . But I'm not paying for cheap labor and huge markups. I'll keep my 6 cylinder. Ps its not about speed lmao
No thanks! If i want speed, ill buy american muscle... not a TRUCK! Besides, i know what i bought my truck for and the same exact trim level in 4th gen is 20K+ more expensive
Entertaining to see Tacomas drag race but in reality Taco owners aren't using their trucks to race. I'm liking the new 4th gen but we will have to wait and see the reliability and durability of the new turbo engine.
We've got some plans to show the true power of the 4th gen on these trails here soon!
Add turbo to v6 make it a v8
Bruh you haven’t hit 1K I hope you wernt red lining it ?.. ehh it’s your money go have fun 👍🏼
Throw a YotaWerx tune on that 3rd gen then see what’s up…
Still slower lol. Another youtuber has both trucks with his 3rd gen tuned. Gets walked every time
@@beexiong2995 I don’t buy a Tacoma to drag race lmao
@@dms14 no but you shouldnt buy a truck that cant carry over 1k payload and has less torque than a maverick 😂
@@beexiong2995 no shit
3rd gen Tacomas don’t have that issue
Slowest drag race I’ve ever seen smh
hahaha True
😂😂 that’s a joke
4g rules. F the 3. Glad it’s in the grave
Gen 3 with OTT tune
I did just that.
The truck only has 300 miles on it and you are racing with it? Good way to blow it up.
Too bad 4th gen has no aftermarket support. Vendors aren't making parts for them.
I would not buy a turbo engine in any make vehicle. Period.
Who cares. If I want to go fast, I'll buy a sports car. If I want reliability, I'll buy a 4 litter V6 that will run over 300K without replacing a stupid battery or a turbo 😂
This truck has no hybrid battery lol. Its the base turbo engine
@@beexiong2995 corrected...
Yes the 4th Generation Tacoma is quicker, BUT Historically Turbo engines simply Don’t last as long as a Naturally Aspirated Engine.
I purposefully bought a 23 TRD Off Road, double cab, 6’ bed with the premium and technology pkgs because we wanted a Proven, Durable, Reliable Naturally Aspirated V6.
In 23 the MSRP on my TRD was $51,848. I paid $48K.
To replace it with a 24, the cost Starts at $67K.
I don’t know of anyone whose income has increased by $20K in one year.
The last generation of the Tundra was bulletproof. Now in this generation with the Twin Turbos, the reliability of the Tundra has Decreased.
The same thing will happen to the Tacoma as well.
We keep our vehicles for 15-20 years or 250K to 300K miles.
I know that the 24 Tacoma’s with the turbo 4, simply won’t last as long as my V6 without major repairs.
yeah the turbos are my main concern, but they are commercial grade for heavy duty cycle and toyota knows what they are doing.
Yes it may last longer but are you going to keep that truck past 5 years? 10 years? If not this point is moot
That's not true turbo engines do last long it's all about proper maintenance.
@@ThePanshow10 Keep telling yourself that
@@beexiong2995 As a matter of fact yes. We keep our vehicles for 15-20 years or 250K to 300K miles.
People who want to keep up the appearances always have to have the “latest and the greatest”. But in the end they’re just as broke as they were when they started out.
We choose to keep our vehicles for a very long time, so we can invest what would have gone to car payments into CDs, real estate, money markets, etc.
I’m almost 60 and own 3 apartment complexes, 8 houses and we’re buying up land which shopping malls, and business sit upon, so that we can enjoy life without the struggle of living.
Furthermore, when we do purchase vehicles, or properties, we’re able to pay cash.
No one plans to fail, they just fail to plan.
I guess I need to get a current prescription for better “rose colored glasses” because when I test drove a 2024 Tacoma trd off road, other than the low torque there wasn’t a WOW FACTOR like all the current 4th gen owners praise everything about this new truck. It was more cheaply made and constructed than the previous gen, which by the way, I own a 2022 Tacoma TRD PRO, so I can compare. Again, there was no adrenaline rush for me when I test drove one and like others have said, the 3rd gen works great for most owners that is, unless you currently have a fourth gen, then you can gloat all you like.
3rd gen wasn’t shifting like the 4th gen. Not a good race. Should switch drivers.
La no no tegnolojia dios me guarde esa vasura esta buena para limpiar los bańos de la asanblea😂
Now do it again at 200k on the odometer if the 4G lasts that long 🥱
Boring comment. By that time both owners already moved on
Do you even have 200k on your Tacoma?🤣
They are designed for that kinda service life so they'll do it easily.
