Sweet video. Currently waiting on my pro out here in Arizona was nice to get a sneak peak at what to expect. Out of curiosity what is your dealer adjustment on this truck?
@@stevenwelchtoyotahow tall are you. I’m picking mine up soon and I’m 6’3. I fit in the Trd off road with the moon roof with plenty of head room. How did you fit in this one with these new seats?
In Ohio with NO additional equipment or "market adjustments" this truck is: $65,955- MSRP $300- Document Fee $4,969- Tax $71,224- Total Does anyone really think this truck is worth $71k? THESE WILL NOT HOLD THEIR VALUE LIKE TRD PRO TACOMAS OF THE PAST.
@timalan7406 The truck has more power than a GX460 4.6L V8... the Taco is going from a "underpowered" V6 to power levels beyond a NA V8 engine on a Lexus
@@stevenwelchtoyota Most dealers aren't being the MSRP's have risen so much. To the buyer, the ADM is already added in by the oem lol. Seriously though, my dealer has six ZR2's for under 50K. That one also has both front and rear locker. The TRD does not offer a front locker at this ridiculous price. Plus the multimatic suspension is one up on the fox shocks. Instead of improving the underpinnings (which is largely unchanged) toyota decided to put air bags in the front chairs. With the Colorado you don't need that because the multimatics is like riding on a cloud. This is just poor value but it will sell well to fanbois.
I'm so glad I bought myself a brand-new 2023 TRD Sport. The only Tacoma design that simple and not begging for attention seems to be the 2024. I paid in cash because paying $8k for interest just doesn't make sense. However, for some people, paying $50k for a Tacoma 4-cylinder makes sense to them. 😂
@@stevenwelchtoyota And it will literally be more expensive after you have to replace them when they get scratched up more easily than a matte finished flare!
What are your size specs? I’m a big guy, but need a midsize where I live. 99.9% of the time will be me, my wife, and my dog in back. 3 times a year someone might be riding in back for
@@stevenwelchtoyota No front locker, almost zero room in rear seat, and 16K more then a Colorado ZR 2. I'm sure its nice but at that price point I can nearly buy a full size Silverado ZR 2 with inline six duramax or a full size trail boss with the 6.2 V8 for that kind of money. Pure insanity pricing.
I'm good on a vehicle like this. Nobody likes all this goofy gimmicky bullshit... I would NOT do a "straight trade" for my '22 TRD 4X4 off-road 6-speed manual poverty 📦 just not my thing in many ways. Toyota lost their way with this gen Tacoma & Tundra imo... Hella good review tho!
@stevenwelchtoyota Nah, I have several dealers here in NJ willing to sell me one at MSRP. The TRD PRO will easily cost me $10k more than a Ranger Raptor. I have an agreement for $58k. Not sure what your looking at, the PRO MSRP is 65k, thr Ranger Raptor is $55k MSRP. The PRO will have crazy dealer markups too
@@stevenwelchtoyota Nah, the v6 engine is tried and true in the Ranger Raptor. The hybrid engine in the pro likely won't last nearly as long . The resale value in these new Tacoma won't be nearly as good as previous Gens regardless because most people don't want a 4cl.
@@stevenwelchtoyota Toyotas reliability is skipping big time too. The Tundras are having issues and there are lots of issues being reported with the new Tacomas too. A buddy of mine is a GM for a local Toyota dealership here in NJ and he told me the recalls on the Tundras are about to get much bigger. That's what happens when you move plants to Mexico...
Sad that Toyota is building new trucks built to spec for influencers and not consumers. Who in their right mind is asking for all this high cost tech in an everyday truck. Sure looks impressive enough to get clicks on reviews but the cost is crazy expensive.
On the lot this truck is 65K + dollars. When you add the taxes, title and whatever else they can throw on the price you're talking over 70K dollars for a 4 cylinder truck. Forget about it. I'll keep my 2021 4runner thank you.
1:03 look at that rats nest of unreliability. Proudly made in Mexico with cheap labor. My 03 with 360k will still be trucking and that thing will be in the scrap yard Only way Toyota salvages its reputation is back all these new designs with an industry leading warranty. They won’t because these are under built trucks designed to break and feed repair revenue. Toyota lost its way.. - recovering fanboy
@@stevenwelchtoyota You can easily find a ZR2 at my local dealer for 49K. They got six of them and that one has front locker and a multimatic suspension which is a much better setup then the same old fox setup on the TRD. In fact they did very little on the underpinnings on the TRD. To make up for lack of suspension Yota put in air seats in cabin to compensate. The ZR2 does not need that as your already riding on a cloud with the multimatics suspension. Even a GMC Denali or AT4X (front locker) runs around 57K and that by far has the best interior in class. The TRD back seat is essentially unusable. And the fact it lacks a front locker is insulting at this price point. Not saying the TRD isn't nice but price is definitely not competitive for what your getting.

they were forced to go to the 4 but they will do it better than anyone else
Should have have the option to remove those seats.💺. No room for passengers!
