Toyota’s midsize truck is far and away number one in its segment, and here’s why.
ToyotaToyota’s Tacoma started life nearly three decades ago as a replacement for the creatively named Toyota Pickup. Since its inception, the Tacoma was popular with off-road and compact truck enthusiasts alike. Toyota seems to have only fostered this popularity over three decades and turned it into a dominating sales success. While the Tacoma is gearing up for a new generation, this current-gen Tacoma features a 2.7-liter I4 or a 3.5-liter V6 mated to a six-speed automatic.
