2010 Toyota Tacoma - A solid truck
For the most part, the Toyota Tacoma is a solid truck and stays true to the quality that Toyota is known for. After having owned the truck for eight years, I have had no major problems; the only issues I have had are the clutch (manual transmission) makes a creaking nose and that the service department for the dealer I purchased the truck from has terrible customer service (due to too many people purchasing from this location so it backlogs their maintenance). In any case, the truck itself has worked perfectly for the last eight years: no breakdowns, no major maintenance issues, no faulty anything.
Story
Nothing major. Just a solid truck that I take surfing all the time, so I associate it with a lot of good sessions!
Pros
One surprising plus for me is that the mileage actually, at times, can surpass 24 miles per gallon. This is a four-cylinder manual transmission, but still, 24 miles per gallon on any truck is pretty solid performance. The standard bed lining has performed pretty well too. I primarily use the truck to go surfing and have not had any issues with the salt water and sun affecting the truck.
Cons
Biggest issue to me, which may or may not be cosmetic, is that the clutch (manual transmission) creaks fairly loudly each time I engage the clutch. Seems to be louder when I'm stopped or at lower speeds.
2004 Toyota Tacoma - This is a reliable vehicle good for hauling large items with a small amount of yearly maintenance.
We liked having the Tacoma for hauling things. When we moved houses to a new house that was five miles away we did not need to rent a moving van, we moved the whole house in about 6 or 7 trips with the Tacoma. It can hold a lot in the bed of the truck. We have also used it to haul furniture at other times. It has a back seat which is small but functional. It has four doors which is handy. A car seat can be installed in it which is useful. The only thing we have disliked is that it has needed periodic maintenance but this is generally true for older cars. It has a few things wrong with it that we haven't fixed due to expense.
Story
We have brought the vehicle to the beach and used it when we go snorkeling which is always a great memory. We have special seat covers in the truck and mats on the ground so we don't worry about getting the truck messy.
Pros
The best part about this vehicle was the reliability and the ability to haul things in it. It has a lot of miles on it but it runs really well. It's a powerful truck that we feel safe in when we drive in it. When we bring it to do maintenance it is not as expensive as some other cars would be. It's a good truck to have in Hawaii because you can bring it in muddy places and to the beach and you never worry about it at all.
Cons
We have had to do yearly maintenance on the truck which can get expensive. It doesn't drive for more than six months or so and something needs to be fixed. But overall it's still a reliable car.
