Shes playing both sides, shes keeps the 3rd gen while catering to the new buyers of the 2024, she gets to make deals /psrtnerships companys while making content for all.. and if the Gen4 fails she still.has a gen 3, the channel and still an acct. The channels fun to watch. She takes the risks so we dont have to. 👏👏👏
This is exactly spot on. This is literally why we're watching. I do love the update in the car and how it looks. It's an amazing car.. IF only it wasn't running in problems. We'd all love one if they start getting it together and price dropping another 15k lol
If you have $50k in cash sitting around, it's stupid to blow it on buying a truck, when you can put it in a 5% money market account and get 6% financing for the truck. Savings interest compounds and car loan interest amortizes. Plus, if something unexpected happens, you have time to sell the truck while you pay your bills with the savings.
@@aluisious First, you forgot about interest rate risk. Your car loan is at fix interest while the money market interest rate can and will likely drop. You also forgot you have to take money out of your money market fund every month to pay the monthly payment, thereby decreasing your compounding. If you figure that into your calculation, assuming 50k in loan/market for a 4 year loan , 5% rate unchanged for your money market (with monthly compounding) and 6% car loan, you will LOSE $~1100 after all these maneuvers. If interest rate drops, you lose a lot more. So, they best thing to do is to just pay cash. The easiest way to tell you are making a mistake in finance calculations is checking whether your calculation indicates that you are making extra money without taking any additional risk and/or effort.
@@aluisiousYou are missing that this is a really a business investment. She gets paid based on channel success, and having the 4th gen taco is a business decision. I suspect she’ll make her $50k back in the end.
@@aluisious Its her money she can do what ever she wants, I'm gonna buy a 2024 Tacoma off road, I'm gonna put down $45,000 dollars cash and finance the rest, I do this to keep my credit rating high.
I also heard they are not selling, but my brother now work at a dealership and he said they are selling as soon as they get to the lot. So, the sales might be a regional characteristic. But I agree they are way too expensive now. I drive and Gen 1 for 260k miles, no repairs required. I traded it in for a Gen 3.
Ah, I did not know it was called the chip guard but yeah, glad it has it! On my 2019, the bottom part of my rear fender flares are all chewed up from essentially getting sand blasted in the desert. I hope that does not happen in this truck!
I can’t blame you for buying this Chloe! I test drive the TRD Off Road (non premium) today and it just feels like a solid truck, I would consider because I do enjoy new toys to explore their capabilities
Chloe… you are definitely a class act! Even though I’m not in the market for a ‘24 myself, I couldn’t help but embody your enthusiasm, smiles, and excitement throughout this excellent video. Continue to stay humble and true to yourself. As an avid follower, I look forward to seeing what your channel has in store for us no matter what make/model Toyota you’re sharing with your audience.
Congrats Chloe on the newest addition. At the end of the day the price you paid for it is what you’re happy with. Hope you get many good years of use with it. I would like to see some comparisons on the Gen 3 vs the Gen 4
Congratulations on the new truck! I got my 2024 tacoma last month, and I'm loving it. My dealership in Fortworth, TX, only had one, and it was hidden almost like it was waiting for me. Even with the price tag, I honestly can say there has been no "buyers remorse." Even though the wife was a little upset when I came home with a shiny new truck completely unannounced. It's my first new, from the dealership vehicle purchase and a huge upgrade from my previous vehicle. With the new 4 cylinder engine, it's about the same gas mileage and fuel cost for my 45-minute drive to the office, which is perfect for me. Already got some upgrades. New tires, bed rack and a pelican cargo case. I'm definitely wanting to get into some weekend offroading/ camping. As for a video suggestion. I haven't seen anyone do a video on the pre wired accessory plug ins and Aux buttons in the cab, other than saying they exist. I think it would be great to see how they function and what accessorys are possible to use them for. I'm excited to see your upcoming videos on the new truck.
Congrats on your new truck as well, and thanks for the video suggestion! I am excited to start getting wiring accessories to the aux buttons. Looks like my truck came with two or three harnesses for it too. And I am not married, but when I showed my parents the new truck, I think they were a little shocked at first (even though I told them months ago one was coming) but after taking them for a ride, they love it!! 😅
I hear they'll make a good deal right now as these aren't selling. I can't wait to hear all you learn going forward. Eventually my 2017 will need a replacement. But, I'll admit I'm a bit skeptical about the new version. If anyone can give us a top to bottom review, it's you! Staying tuned!
Coming from a 2020 TRD Pro, I drove a truck really similar to Chloe's, and holy smokes it's a huge difference. More power, more quality of life upgrades, and more leg room in the cab. I'm 6'4" and have more room in the rear seat when the front seats are in a standard seating position. The powered seats like Chloe has go so low that it can probably fit many NBA players.
Congrates on the new Truck. You have one of the best Tacoma channels on TH-cam. Everything is so well explained and detailed. I think you had about 15K subs when I started watching and I knew this channel would blow up. 185K Subs is just getting started. Keep it up. 👍
I just came back from the dealership. My wife wasn't on board but I will be buying a taco at somepoint. I look forward to watching your upgrades. Silver is my favorite btw
Ok we get it, it’s expensive. But everyone needs to get over the price. There’s plenty of these at dealerships so discounts will be very easy to obtain.
One of my cousins got a brand new tacoma. We live in Bakersfield and the transmission overheated. Transmission always hunts for gears too. I think u will regret getting it. Cheers 🥂

Hey chloe, I know you mentioned in your video that you ordered your 24 Tacoma. How were you able to do that? Every time I ask my local Toyota dealership in texas if I can order a truck, they say they can’t do that.
Heated and cooled seats and a heated wheel is a nice touch! I have heated seats in my 2020 TRD Sport Premium but not cooled or a heated wheel. Does it have automatic wipers? That’s another thing I’d like to have
I have a 2024 tacoma TRD off-road I have had for 3 months now it so much better then my 3rd generation tacoma I still have my 3rd generation tacoma but it just sets now you will love it the more every time you drive it congratulation on your new tacoma you will love it
Awesome video, I think it would be important to inform us what challenges you have or issues you might notice with the truck. Someone with your knowledge in both use and modification, it would be helpful to know what someone with your eye would notice and be able to inform us what to look out for or how to fix/mod it. Otherwise I'm looking forward to this next journey you're on, thank you so much for taking the time and putting in the work to share this stuff with us! Congratulations on the truck, and the brand new adventure!
Yeah, super crazy that a content creator would want to have something new to make videos about. Better to hang back and make video #10,357 about some obscure Gen 3 mod...

@@osiyooverland so people who work for a living are idiots, maybe the guy working at McDonald's, but guess what, if he's a single guy or gal with no kids they can afford it. it'd be a tight squeeze, but it's possible. the question is will they, i don't know. however the average income in the US is middle class, and McDonald's is not middle class. $20 an hour and above is middle class pay, and TH-camrs what's that, and who. not everyone who uses this platform has money, so you strike out once again.
@@osiyooverlandMate, there are people who buy 4 cylinder Mustangs out there. She's overpaying, sure, but I wouldn't call it dumb. It's still a good durable truck.
After the greedy price hike and The turbo. I'll never buy a Toyota Truck again. I got a 2024 Nissan Pro 4x for 41,500 out the door price. 😊 2024 Toyota Tacoma TRD off road would have cost me 8 to 10 thousand more.😮 Screw them.
I test drove one of those before going with the 24 Tacoma. The pro4x felt pretty outdated that’s why I think it’s cheaper. You get a lot more on the premium package than what the top trim frontier offers.
@@12dbortle Frontier is proven. 2024 Tacoma is not and It's way overpriced. Other TH-camrs are already posting flaws. The TFL video shows the frontend snapped during rock climbing. Truck king video shows the transmission blowing during shifting.
@@wt9653It’s a first year model dude. Watch some videos about other trucks and their first year models Including your frontier. All of the new updates mid size trucks are expensive that’s just how the market is. Same thing with the full size trucks.
@@jbcope1000 yeah i tried shopping there as they supposedly had discounts, but they try to do stupid ad ons last minute. Also, they didn’t budge on any of the trd models, only SR5. I shopped every dealer in SD and no one was as aggressive in making a deal as escondido
All the tracking and app stuff doesn't sit right with me. All of this is basically paving the way for it to be remotely shut down if your social credit score dips. Or if the gov imposes a lock down they can outright lock your truck, or if a curfew goes into effect they can set it to only work during X hours. The two best ways to push something that'll eventually bite us in the bum: Under the guise of safety, or under the guise of convenience. /removes tinfoil hat
also, toyota is bad about adding features and making you pay a subscription for it. I have always been a Toyota fan boy until recently. Its a garbage company that takes advantage of their customers.
Your not wrong at all, you are on point. You should be aware of that from just looking at the gauge cluster. It's all digital, push start lol! Absolutely if there is a electricical issue or software shutdown they can back out your whole truck! I talked to Toyota one time about taking my truck off tracking. They told me each vehicle now has basically a cellular device like a phone with its own phone number. You can go off tracking, but never really because of you push that sos button they will answer, means your still on the system..crazy . All these new vehicles are a step in wrong direction and for nothing. No better gas mileage not lighter not better built.. nothing
$60,000 with taxes included!! That’s an insane amount of money for a truck that’s worth $40,000 in mine opinion!!! Good luck with those turbos down the road very unreliable specially around 50 60,000 miles!!!
You're gonna betray your old tacoma. You didn't need the new one. Many of us tacoma people owners are not buying the new tacoma to prove a point. Not buying the Tacoma will allow Toyota to rethink their value on the new gen tacoma and their customers.
They should’ve made this version entirely it’s own trim/model. Kept the old 4cyl for those on a budget or don’t need the power, and upgrade the V6 engine. I know a lot of people complain the V6 is underpowered for its class so this was a chance to improve it. Instead they designed a truck that honestly is too Luxury even for base models. It is nice and all, but they leave little to no options for most people to afford it for what it is really needed for.
@Rieneger not possible, the EPA pretty much is making it very difficult to have a naturally aspirated V6, and forget about a turbo V6 because that's what the tundra has.
Good luck with that, they're selling quite well and they're not going to change to naturally aspirated V6 and lower the price, inflation is everywhere and the EPA isn't going to make that possible anymore.
Although the new gen taco was recently just released, it is actually selling more than the new gen ford ranger, chevy colorado, gmc canyon and honda ridgeline, these were released waayy earlier than the new gen taco and the taco is already on top with the sales, so go ahead and keep your 3rd gen taco and let people do whatever they want with their hard earned money.
If I were you I'd return it right away or your going to have a lot of nightmares!!! Just wondering if you've done your research before you decided to buy this? I had took one out for a test ride just 10 minutes of driving it it just felt really cheap!! Boy was was I right it just blows my mind away how they got away with making this vehicle so cheap what a slap in the face to their customers I went back to the dealer and told the guy he can keep it what a total piece of junk I showed him so many mistakes that was made in the vehicle and how cheap the quality was, he didn't disagree but he had no intentions of buying one I don't trust salesman they are all a bunch of liars to make a sale that's why it's very very important to do your research first cuz this is a very costly mistake, especially when you already have a Tacoma that is way better than this one I took a 23 model for a ride puts his brand new one to shame every single way quality fit durability even the paint even the thickness of the metal!!! If I was the CEO of Toyota this would never have hit the market not a chance!!! People need to stop buying because of looks it looks good but that's all it is I find the 3rd Generation looks better anyway!!!
last gen was very slow and sluggish, very poor mpg as well. I myself pulled the trigger as well. Also any new car bought from toyota cannot be returned. used car can be returned within a certain time frame
You’re lying through your teeth, and badly. Sorry buddy, there’s no way that you drove one of these trucks and thought the gen 3 was “nicer.” Just stop. I liked my ‘22 taco well enough, it was fully loaded too, but this new one is significantly better in EVERY single way, and I didn’t get the premium package like Chloe here. In other words, my fully loaded gen 3 was not as nice as my base trd off road, and it was actually less expensive than my gen 3 was! Moreover, nearly every single owner of one of these new trucks has had a positive experience, myself included. I’ve had mine for over 3 months, and I love it. If something breaks, Toyota will fix it. That’s a big IF something breaks. My ‘22 had a recall on its drive shaft… there’s always a chance something could go wrong when you buy a new vehicle, no matter what brand or model you choose to buy.
You think the 2024 feels cheap? What did you think of the one before it? There's no way you can in any sense think it felt more premium than the new one.
@@kevinbradley8613 yep that's exactly what I did the third generation was much more solid much more nicer When I close the door the whole truck didn't move you can believe it or not doesn't make a difference you want to buy the garbage you can go ahead I want to waste 50,000 on a piece of junk that's your problem I'm just telling people the truth does it mean everyone's going to accept it
I'm so glad to hear that you kept your old Toyota it's always good to have a spare when your other one is in on recalls especially the first couple years of production😅 I don't usually trade in my old vehicle I give it to a relative for free as a gift I get more satisfaction out of that because I know a dealer wouldn't give me enough on a trade-in because they like to make their five to $7,000 above trade in on resale😢
you drunk? a rolex is a luxury watch at a luxury price used for status..this is a suppose to be a small truck for the average joe at a low price able to be fixed by the owner...a complete fail on toyota.
I just put my TRD cold air intake on ,, they sound so much better , 800 bucks is a little much for the 4runner ones but they do make a huge difference. mice truck
I figured you were going to show up with a new Tacoma. Now we can expect some good content and comparisons between the two machines. It's awesome that you stuck with the 3rd gen.
How fun to get a sweet new ride! That's a beautiful truck and a great color. I just bought a 2023 slightly used Taco TRD Offroad, it will be nice to see you feel out the changes and improvements. Like the rear suspension. Plus the extra horsepower and the new transmission.
The app stuff is subscription based, after first year you’ll have to pay subscription. Also, the digital key should allow you to remote start and it stays running when you get inside
My neighbors just got a new 2024 Tacoma in the same dark grey color. They also have a double cab first gen Tacoma from the early 00s and they look so nice parked next to each other on the drive way. We also have a 5th gen 4runner and a 3rd gen as well. It’s nice to see these vehicles parked next to their older versions side by side. This is a Toyota household thing to have the same vehicles but from different gens. Just shows the longevity of these vehicles and the loyalty from their owners
19000 Miles on my 24 TRDOR Premium, only issues are windshield crack and radio knob fell off. Looking forward to your content and see how you feel about yours and what all you do to it.
That is 10k cheaper than you would pay in NJ, That's a perfect spec and when my lease is up in my 2022 I will use this video as a reference point when ordering my 2025
Congrats Chloe! Love your channel. Just picked up premium packaged off-road in Celestial Silver this week. Love it so far and looking forward to watching your gen 4 videos while I settle into mine. Only regret is adding the 17"off-road tires (they ended up being Nitto Ridge Grappler for $1,349). The SDM would have been much better use of that cash.
VERY NICE, CHLOE. CONGRATULATIONS!!! Really looking forward to seeing what you do with it, but mostly reports on how the engine performs, reliability, issues, all that stuff 😉 Take care and best wishes 👍
I bought a used ‘23 tacoma trd off road with 6600k miles. Has technology package, premium package…..for $43k….and, it has the tried n true v6 engine. I like the look of the ‘24’s, but not the turbo engine or the price. I actually think the third gens look better too. Just my humble opinion. Everyone has different tastes
Upgrade everything on the truck cross-country off-road style. All the way down to the light bar on the top, dual gas cans on each side of the bed rail. Great video. Congratulations on the new truck.... 🤘😎🤙
Congrats on your new Taco truck. Great color. I’m going to buy one soon as well. Did you consider buying the Off Road with Iforce max hybrid engine? Just found out they make a hybrid for an OFF ROAD.

Yea I've been in a 3rd gen and 4th is so much better. Most of these people in the internet have never driven a 4th Gen.
They look too much like a Colorado
My 2017 has been super reliable with zero issues.
Awesome video, I think it would be important to inform us what challenges you have or issues you might notice with the truck. Someone with your knowledge in both use and modification, it would be helpful to know what someone with your eye would notice and be able to inform us what to look out for or how to fix/mod it. Otherwise I'm looking forward to this next journey you're on, thank you so much for taking the time and putting in the work to share this stuff with us! Congratulations on the truck, and the brand new adventure!
The tacoma has been the lead selling midsize truck.... i can't imagine them upcharging them as they'll be a dime a dozen.
awsome love your videos new subscriber here welcome to the 2024 taco gang hehe have fun 😊
Question: Did the dealership still ran your credit check despite your bank either financing or paying in cash?
Don’t do it Chloe!
Yeah, super crazy that a content creator would want to have something new to make videos about. Better to hang back and make video #10,357 about some obscure Gen 3 mod...
@@RichardPalmbergDDS $54k for a sport Tacoma too! I paid $52k for my 2023 trd pro. Glad I got it
Exactly I agree 100% don't do it this thing is a disaster!!!!
Crazy!! Toyota lost their mind 😮
@@wt9653 Oh you guys just let it go it’s going to occur with without your super erudite commentary lol! Good grief change is hard for basement dwellers
Welcome to the gen4 fam. I joined back in april and have driven the truck across the country and back.
Only youtubers are buying this expensive truck honestly 😂
and people with a job
@@Jeymez no, idiots and TH-camrs are buying this truck.
@@osiyooverland so people who work for a living are idiots,
maybe the guy working at McDonald's, but guess what, if he's a single guy or gal with no kids they can afford it.
it'd be a tight squeeze, but it's possible.
the question is will they, i don't know.
however the average income in the US is middle class, and McDonald's is not middle class. $20 an hour and above is middle class pay,
and TH-camrs what's that, and who.
not everyone who uses this platform has money, so you strike out once again.
@@osiyooverlandMate, there are people who buy 4 cylinder Mustangs out there. She's overpaying, sure, but I wouldn't call it dumb. It's still a good durable truck.
@@absaw5735 its brand new. no one knows if these models are good and durable yet. what we do know is they are overpriced and suckers are buying them
Congratulations Chloe. Have fun with the build of your new ride!
After the greedy price hike and The turbo. I'll never buy a Toyota Truck again.
I got a 2024 Nissan Pro 4x for 41,500 out the door price. 😊
2024 Toyota Tacoma TRD off road would have cost me 8 to 10 thousand more.😮 Screw them.
Yeah, the TRD Off-Road and Pros are a pretty penny. But congrats on the new Pro 4X!!! My neighbor just got one and it's sweet
I test drove one of those before going with the 24 Tacoma. The pro4x felt pretty outdated that’s why I think it’s cheaper. You get a lot more on the premium package than what the top trim frontier offers.
@@12dbortle
Frontier is proven.
2024 Tacoma is not and It's way overpriced.
Other TH-camrs are already posting flaws.
The TFL video shows the frontend snapped during rock climbing.
Truck king video shows the transmission blowing during shifting.
@@wt9653It’s a first year model dude. Watch some videos about other trucks and their first year models Including your frontier. All of the new updates mid size trucks are expensive that’s just how the market is. Same thing with the full size trucks.
@@12dbortle
🤣 10 to 20 thousand dollar increase is okay from the previous generation.
Okay buddy, have a good night 😴🤣
I can't believe you bought a new truck again
I bought that exact truck from toyota escondido for $50,200
Toyota carlsbad was not willing to negotiate.
Toyota Chula Vista for about the same price for me. People need to share the good dealers names
@@jbcope1000 yeah i tried shopping there as they supposedly had discounts, but they try to do stupid ad ons last minute.
Also, they didn’t budge on any of the trd models, only SR5.
I shopped every dealer in SD and no one was as aggressive in making a deal as escondido
Your passion is always exhilarating ! and a VERY sincere congratulations to you Chloe !
All the tracking and app stuff doesn't sit right with me. All of this is basically paving the way for it to be remotely shut down if your social credit score dips. Or if the gov imposes a lock down they can outright lock your truck, or if a curfew goes into effect they can set it to only work during X hours. The two best ways to push something that'll eventually bite us in the bum: Under the guise of safety, or under the guise of convenience. /removes tinfoil hat
also, toyota is bad about adding features and making you pay a subscription for it. I have always been a Toyota fan boy until recently. Its a garbage company that takes advantage of their customers.
100%
This is exactly what popped into my head when I saw it in the video.
Your not wrong at all, you are on point. You should be aware of that from just looking at the gauge cluster. It's all digital, push start lol! Absolutely if there is a electricical issue or software shutdown they can back out your whole truck! I talked to Toyota one time about taking my truck off tracking. They told me each vehicle now has basically a cellular device like a phone with its own phone number. You can go off tracking, but never really because of you push that sos button they will answer, means your still on the system..crazy . All these new vehicles are a step in wrong direction and for nothing. No better gas mileage not lighter not better built.. nothing
Congratulations Chloe 🎉!! I think that underground color is the best 👍. ♥️🌮🐶🐾
$60,000 with taxes included!! That’s an insane amount of money for a truck that’s worth $40,000 in mine opinion!!! Good luck with those turbos down the road very unreliable specially around 50 60,000 miles!!!
L😂L
Looks amazing can't wait for the mods!! :)
That’s your dream truck ? You need to dream bigger lol
Yes a tech video showing all the cool features would be awesome!!
Please let's not call it a truck!!! Let's call it what it is a disgrace!!!!
Could you list some reasons you think a 2024 Tacoma is a disgrace?
@@danieltaylor3396 Price to start. Shall I go on?
Congrats on your new purchase, the Tacoma looks amazing!!! Toyota/Lexus is a great and reliable vehicle for many years to come!!!!
You're gonna betray your old tacoma. You didn't need the new one. Many of us tacoma people owners are not buying the new tacoma to prove a point. Not buying the Tacoma will allow Toyota to rethink their value on the new gen tacoma and their customers.
They should’ve made this version entirely it’s own trim/model. Kept the old 4cyl for those on a budget or don’t need the power, and upgrade the V6 engine. I know a lot of people complain the V6 is underpowered for its class so this was a chance to improve it. Instead they designed a truck that honestly is too Luxury even for base models. It is nice and all, but they leave little to no options for most people to afford it for what it is really needed for.
@Rieneger not possible, the EPA pretty much is making it very difficult to have a naturally aspirated V6, and forget about a turbo V6 because that's what the tundra has.
Good luck with that, they're selling quite well and they're not going to change to naturally aspirated V6 and lower the price, inflation is everywhere and the EPA isn't going to make that possible anymore.
Although the new gen taco was recently just released, it is actually selling more than the new gen ford ranger, chevy colorado, gmc canyon and honda ridgeline, these were released waayy earlier than the new gen taco and the taco is already on top with the sales, so go ahead and keep your 3rd gen taco and let people do whatever they want with their hard earned money.
New Tacoma = JUNK!
I'm waiting on my TRD Pro in underground and cockpit red interior. Should arrive later this month!
If I were you I'd return it right away or your going to have a lot of nightmares!!! Just wondering if you've done your research before you decided to buy this? I had took one out for a test ride just 10 minutes of driving it it just felt really cheap!! Boy was was I right it just blows my mind away how they got away with making this vehicle so cheap what a slap in the face to their customers I went back to the dealer and told the guy he can keep it what a total piece of junk I showed him so many mistakes that was made in the vehicle and how cheap the quality was, he didn't disagree but he had no intentions of buying one I don't trust salesman they are all a bunch of liars to make a sale that's why it's very very important to do your research first cuz this is a very costly mistake, especially when you already have a Tacoma that is way better than this one I took a 23 model for a ride puts his brand new one to shame every single way quality fit durability even the paint even the thickness of the metal!!! If I was the CEO of Toyota this would never have hit the market not a chance!!! People need to stop buying because of looks it looks good but that's all it is I find the 3rd Generation looks better anyway!!!
last gen was very slow and sluggish, very poor mpg as well. I myself pulled the trigger as well. Also any new car bought from toyota cannot be returned. used car can be returned within a certain time frame
You’re lying through your teeth, and badly. Sorry buddy, there’s no way that you drove one of these trucks and thought the gen 3 was “nicer.” Just stop. I liked my ‘22 taco well enough, it was fully loaded too, but this new one is significantly better in EVERY single way, and I didn’t get the premium package like Chloe here. In other words, my fully loaded gen 3 was not as nice as my base trd off road, and it was actually less expensive than my gen 3 was! Moreover, nearly every single owner of one of these new trucks has had a positive experience, myself included. I’ve had mine for over 3 months, and I love it. If something breaks, Toyota will fix it. That’s a big IF something breaks. My ‘22 had a recall on its drive shaft… there’s always a chance something could go wrong when you buy a new vehicle, no matter what brand or model you choose to buy.
You think the 2024 feels cheap? What did you think of the one before it? There's no way you can in any sense think it felt more premium than the new one.
@@kevinbradley8613 hes one of those old folks. He doesnt like the new technology and digital display etc, hes very old schooled
@@kevinbradley8613 yep that's exactly what I did the third generation was much more solid much more nicer When I close the door the whole truck didn't move you can believe it or not doesn't make a difference you want to buy the garbage you can go ahead I want to waste 50,000 on a piece of junk that's your problem I'm just telling people the truth does it mean everyone's going to accept it
Great advice to thoroughly inspect and test drive a new car! Stuff happens and it’s better to catch and document before you take delivery
Foolish to give Toyota your money! They are taking advantage of ALL Toyota owners! Not worth that kind of money. You will see!
I'm so glad to hear that you kept your old Toyota it's always good to have a spare when your other one is in on recalls especially the first couple years of production😅 I don't usually trade in my old vehicle I give it to a relative for free as a gift I get more satisfaction out of that because I know a dealer wouldn't give me enough on a trade-in because they like to make their five to $7,000 above trade in on resale😢
Transmission is going fail. Problem will create more content for you😅
I am happy with my 2015 Tacoma. It’s still going strong.
Ripoff
you drunk? a rolex is a luxury watch at a luxury price used for status..this is a suppose to be a small truck for the average joe at a low price able to be fixed by the owner...a complete fail on toyota.
Not getting a 4 cylinder turbo. That's why I went frontier, the last true midsize truck!!!
Congratulations Miss Chloe , glad you are happy with your purchase. Appreciate you sharing the details with us on your new Taco . Happy trails!!
I just put my TRD cold air intake on ,, they sound so much better , 800 bucks is a little much for the 4runner ones but they do make a huge difference.
mice truck
I figured you were going to show up with a new Tacoma. Now we can expect some good content and comparisons between the two machines. It's awesome that you stuck with the 3rd gen.
I have a 24 TRD Sport with MT. I'm sure the gremlins will show themselves eventually, but so far it's been the most enjoyable vehicle I've owned.
How fun to get a sweet new ride! That's a beautiful truck and a great color. I just bought a 2023 slightly used Taco TRD Offroad, it will be nice to see you feel out the changes and improvements. Like the rear suspension. Plus the extra horsepower and the new transmission.
Congrats Chloe. Glad you still got the 3rd.
The app stuff is subscription based, after first year you’ll have to pay subscription. Also, the digital key should allow you to remote start and it stays running when you get inside
Congrats on the new taco again. Excited to see what you do with it. Your brother is doing an amazing job filming. I love it.
My neighbors just got a new 2024 Tacoma in the same dark grey color. They also have a double cab first gen Tacoma from the early 00s and they look so nice parked next to each other on the drive way. We also have a 5th gen 4runner and a 3rd gen as well. It’s nice to see these vehicles parked next to their older versions side by side. This is a Toyota household thing to have the same vehicles but from different gens. Just shows the longevity of these vehicles and the loyalty from their owners
Great looking truck. I purchased a Tacoma TRD Offroad last year, so mine is a 2023. Enjoy your new truck.
19000 Miles on my 24 TRDOR Premium, only issues are windshield crack and radio knob fell off. Looking forward to your content and see how you feel about yours and what all you do to it.
That is 10k cheaper than you would pay in NJ, That's a perfect spec and when my lease is up in my 2022 I will use this video as a reference point when ordering my 2025
Congrats Chloe! Love your channel. Just picked up premium packaged off-road in Celestial Silver this week. Love it so far and looking forward to watching your gen 4 videos while I settle into mine. Only regret is adding the 17"off-road tires (they ended up being Nitto Ridge Grappler for $1,349). The SDM would have been much better use of that cash.
VERY NICE, CHLOE. CONGRATULATIONS!!! Really looking forward to seeing what you do with it, but mostly reports on how the engine performs, reliability, issues, all that stuff 😉 Take care and best wishes 👍
Only thing I don't like about the new off road is the silver ring on the wheels. The Pre Runner all black ones look better imo
I bought a used ‘23 tacoma trd off road with 6600k miles. Has technology package, premium package…..for $43k….and, it has the tried n true v6 engine. I like the look of the ‘24’s, but not the turbo engine or the price. I actually think the third gens look better too. Just my humble opinion. Everyone has different tastes
Upgrade everything on the truck cross-country off-road style. All the way down to the light bar on the top, dual gas cans on each side of the bed rail. Great video. Congratulations on the new truck.... 🤘😎🤙
muffler delete video with resonated tip 🔥
No goofy hybrid or batteries…Nice! Congrats on the new rig!
Congrats on your new Taco truck. Great color. I’m going to buy one soon as well.
Did you consider buying the Off Road with Iforce max hybrid engine? Just found out they make a hybrid for an OFF ROAD.
Congratulations!!! your new Tacoma 👌💪
Good to see that you bypassed the iforce hybrid!👍
