I love my Tacoma, it is a great truck for camping, taking stuff to the dump, and so forth. I also like that it looks good and handles really well.

The 2003 Toyota Tacoma is a great durable compact pickup truck and is ideal for work and some casual driving. In my experience, it has a great frame, is fairly low-maintenance, and great gas mileage for a truck. The option to go with the four-cylinder version gives it great efficiency, and for having such a small engine, it actually hauls quite a big load. Combined with an after-market bed-extender which allows you to make full use of the bed by dropping the tail gate and closing with the extender, it has great flexibility. Plus its compact size makes it easy to find parking virtually anywhere.
