This has been a very reliable vehicle. It is a 1995, which means it's rapidly approaching its 20-year birthday, but it has not underperformed a day in its life. Even the wear and tear on the vehicle has been fairly minimal, given its age. I have had to do minimal maintenance compared to my previous vehicle (a 1994 Pontiac Grand Prix) where things seemed to be breaking left and right, month after month. I suppose the only things I really dislike about this vehicle are the lack of features, i.e. power windows, power locks, etc. It has the original cassette player installed, however, I have gotten around this inconvenience by using a cassette-to-mp3 player adapter. I have also used this with my phone (using Spotify/Pandora/etc.) so it has not been too much of an issue. I believe since this is an older vehicle, it also tends to ride a little "rough" compared to newer models. I would enjoy it more if it had more cargo space, but what else can you expect from a truck? This vehicle has come in handy through many relocations and moves, though, so it's a give-and-take situation.

I bought this car when I was a freshmen in college. At the time, I was making hardly any money and was concentrating in school. The 2002 Toyota Tacoma was the only vehicle I could possibly own. The design of the truck itself is perfect. The fact that it is a truck just fits my personality. It is not a 4x4, but in my case it is not needed. The silver color is great and the height of the truck fits my 6'1 stature. I'm a single guy that loves to take road trips alone and this truck is perfect for me. It is strong yet drives smooth just like an SUV.
