2024 Toyota Tacoma Trailhunter Review: The One You Really Want 

He got a good sale on his Sequoia

​@@fos3vcf10actually he didn't, he couldn't find any for sale new and he even asked Toyota if they can find him one (he specified he would pay the full price) and they didn't find him one lmao

@@cyjanek7818you may have missed the joke :)

All these videos paid off his new Sequoia 10x and he didn't even have to leave the dealership 😂

He finally left his bomb shelter though 😂

They are boring cars given a lame name and badges everywhere trying to not be boring

@@xb5883sounds like a typical American with a broken dodge

​​@@xb5883least their Supra and even Nissan's Z ain't an EV unlike what your Hellcats are becoming 😂

​@@xb5883let me Guess, you own an Ecosport

@@xb5883 Buddy, your fords have plastic oil pans. I'm sure that'll add to the excitement when it snags on something and cracks.

😂😂😂😂

Don't forget the drive-thru's!

As well as trails. Most people only have one car so it makes sense that they'd drive it everywhere including to the grocery store.

@@bwofficial1776 yeah, people with $100k to spend on a pickup only have one car *Sarcasm*

@@marioricardo903why would one person want to have two cars in their garage unless they have a family? the fuel cost does not justify the cost of owning two cars. I don't understand your logic.

You can get a fully loaded tundra for that.

​@welcometoboredom No, you absolutely cannot.

gets a 7 for value though 😄

​@@sawyermartin4434 The 2024 Toyota Tundra has a starting price of $41,815 and can cost up to $64,310 depending on the trim and options. The Tundra Capstone is the highest-trim and most expensive Tundra, offering luxury and styling. It includes all the features of the Platinum trim, plus a V6 Hybrid powertrain, 22-inch wheels, exclusive exterior and interior trim, sound-reducing front windows, power-deploying running boards, and a head-up display

Hey, they put the name in the headlight and the floormatts. It worth every dime. Now think how cool that will look when you pick your daughter up from basketball.

Lmao

After finger lick, it goes up his…

Haha!

@@turneringrassia9510 Giggity!

thats diabolical lol

Get the ef out of the way!

Should be illegal.

Yeah, because the guy driving is a man-child who wears his sunglasses on his forehead and is an off-duty rent-a-cop/prison guard in a puffer vest and a skin-tight Grunt Style tee shirt.

@@garys9694 stop taking roids and just tell your wife you like to bottom at planet fitness.

​@@Techjunkierowhy it could've been illegal btw?

Don't forget Starbucks

Basically if you buy one of these you voted for Biden

How pathetic can you be

@@user-ju1qx9dc3w Not the insult you unfortunately think it is. Lol

@@CubicleRanger Yes, it actually is.

Guessing they wouldn’t let him

Yep...or like most of the people that buy these they'll never see dirt.

Seriously, when he said that I was like, this guy doesn't think about what he's saying

Just goes to show how many “off-road” vehicles sold today dont ever leave pavement

​@@tacoponchomedia people have rules to follow or no more press cars for Dougie.

Hundred percent. Way more so than Matt Watson.

​@@purwantiallan5089 WAYYYYYY more than him. WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY more.

W comment

Why Demuro never doing this review indoors btw?

It does not

I've never noticed it

@@purwantiallan5089 Never? All the reviews were done indoors since the new cars & bids HQ

Until you’re trying to start your car next morning 😁

Car has to be running and the high watt version is only on hybrid

​@@testtesttesttesttest884 Ford has the 2.4kw and 7.2kw meanwhile im over here sad with only 400w :(

That's quite a bit of power for an inverter.

It has the large hybrid battery pack.

And discuss its quirks and features.

Doug the type of guy that gives his water bottle an 80/100 cause it has no flavor

​@@userwtf420 Loses points in the weekend category

Glug score

It's actually really useful on steep descents. Like where 1-low is slow, but 2-low wants to run away on you.

He did mention it worked well for him.

Someone needs to do a montage of Doug saying “crawl control”. Will probably be a 10 minute video

Keep what you have. This new stuff is unadulterated, overpriced junk. And it's made in Mexico.

The accelerator won’t get stuck on a tacoma.

But the Cybertruck comes with a TapOut t-shirt and giant fake gold chain.

@@The_Top_Gun. You never know. It could happen again. Ten years ago Toyota recalled 9 million cars for stuck accelerators, including all 2005-2010 Tacomas. Caused 37 deaths according to the NHTSA.

A Fiat Multipla is better than that fridge on wheels

That’s a low bar.

Good for resale!

At dealership prices, apparently.

. ouch , that’s a good skit .

yeah I dont. he needs downers

Yeah. TrailHunter has the air compressor which is ideal for airing down on more challenging technical trails. TRD Pro has the shock absorber seats for higher speed offroading.

You are completely right. Doug gets this wrong in every video talking about the TrailHunter. The TRD Pro is a Baja style high speed desert runner. The TrailHunter is a RockLander (rock crawler meets overlander).

yeah, the trailhunter has a higher payload, the pro is an offroad toy.

Why would anyone get stuck paying 5 years for a disposable plastic truck with a 4 cylinder?!??

😭😭😭

because they know that people want empty switch blanks to add in accessory switches. a panel of blanks is incredibly useful

@@danielessaides3727 13:43 , 5th one down

@@QUESO1011 could be something that is reserved for the manual models. Like the clutch start assist, something like that

@@danielessaides3727you are correct, it is the clutch start button. Unfortunately there’s 2 more blanks in the area where the AUX buttons are. Just saying, for a “63000” mid sized truck, it better have every single option you can squeeze in there, nothing should be optional IMO

They will in 20 years 😂😂😂

Did the Supra RZ 1997 also has bronze wheel?

Baja and crawl I get but is there a third "overland" category as well? I thought overland overlapped with crawl and that this truck was basically meant for both but Doug seems to think this is for overland, TRD is for crawling, and neither is for Baja

@@paulgemperlein626 From Toyotas own website: “Tacoma TRD Pro Inspired by Tacoma’s legacy of Baja dominance, the TRD Pro returns to capture the hearts and stir the souls of a new generation of off-road enthusiasts. Loaded with desert-destroying features in a rugged and stylish package, Tacoma TRD Pro raises the bar for off-road performance.” “All-New, All-Conquering Trailhunter Toyota has long been the choice of those who forge their own paths to adventure. Now, the choice is even clearer. Introducing the Tacoma Trailhunter-conceived, designed and built to be a ready-made overlanding beast.” Overlanding is just a term for getting to hard to reach places usually with reference to camping or exploring. Suspension on the Trailhunter is tuned for carrying heavier load outs. “Old Man Emu® Suspension Overlanders need a truck that can do more than just take them down the toughest trails; they also need it to carry all their gear and supplies for extended time off the grid. Trailhunter’s standard Old Man Emu® 2.5-in. forged monotube shocks with external remote reservoirs combine rugged capability with outstanding load-carrying stability, to get you through the obstacles and into the middle of nowhere.” In the past there was only a TRD model and it was target toward all around 4WD. Now they’ve focused TRD as more of a Ford Raptor competitor - desert runner, suspensions seats, hitting jumps etc…And Trailhunter for overlanding.

@@paulgemperlein626 from Toyotas website: “Tacoma TRD Pro Inspired by Tacoma’s legacy of Baja dominance, the TRD Pro returns to capture the hearts and stir the souls of a new generation of off-road enthusiasts. Loaded with desert-destroying features in a rugged and stylish package, Tacoma TRD Pro raises the bar for off-road performance.” Basically they are pushing TRD as more of a desert runner and competitor to the Ford Raptor. They even put the shock absorber system into the seats for hitting jumps with the vehicle. Trailhunter is set up for exploring hard to reach places with larger overlanding payloads.

actually I prefer a cordless ryobe. no need to run a hose.

What makes less sense to me is that the Land Cruiser Prado is priced at 76k and marked up to 90k+.

True, but the GX isn't a truck. But a made in Mexico truck should not cost 63K.

I know I should never bring up Ram in Toyota video but the RHO starts $5k more than this with 1500 payload, more clearance, useable back seat, and 0/60 under 5 seconds.

Cry cry cry😭😭😭

"Power is pretty much the same" Dude, WHAT? LOL

Most other channels are seeing mid 20's under normal use on the new Tacoma

Exactly and all the battery and electrical components take up all the space under and behind the rear seats. If they had put a 6 cylinder with a turbo or supercharger I would probably get one. Would like to get a Ranger Raptor, but mark ups on those are over $70k. Insane what people are charging for midsized trucks.

ICE vehicles are clearly going away with all this high-stressed engine boosted over complicated mess. ICE vehicles are increasingly only for the rich as they try to compete with EV horsepower numbers.. Meanwhile EVs are getting less expensive by the month and ridiculous performance. Just wait until Chinese EVs are being imported you will be getting a truck for $25k that will have 500hp and 400 miles range with super fast charging. These days will be here way before 2030. It is still only 2024.

24 TRD PRO Tundra. Amazing, on road, off road, towing.

@@thealchemist013 oh sweet, I am stoked for you man!!

2017 LC 😍😍

​@@MegaRafaellocoLexus LC coupe or a Toyota Land Cruiser?

Waterproof

​@@sammymaestro7642it's sad you got no up votes but they got over 30

companies will remove every single button and we all complain and then there’s this doofus who complains about the one company still adding physical buttons. if you think this is bad think about what liquid is gonna do to the electrical components of those massive touch screens or capacitive panels 🙄 and then instead of whatever function the button controls being broken the screen that controls several or perhaps every single function in the car is gone completely. just because it’s more minimalist and out of the way doesn’t mean it isn’t susceptible to the exact same thing.

Yeah that was embarrassing for a truck touted so highly as off-road capable

Good call

I have a 2007 Tundra with just over 300,000 miles. Good job keeping the mileage low on your truck and know your truck will take you farther than you ever thought possible. Only issue I have with your statement, unless you have a super charger, our 5.7l v8 only has 381hp which I don’t think I would trade for the base v6 of the current model. The hybrid model, that’s a different beast

@@johngarcia2502 simple typo, sorry!

I got a 17 LC with the same engine. Love how comfortable it is, coming from a Rubicon, it’s like night and day in terms of comfort and features.

You are absolutely pathetic

Saddest truth of reality

I'd actually have faith that many of these would be out on the trails. But I mean if you're only on regular roads too, of course you'll only see them there. I've seen a ton of very nice trucks/SUV's on trails in CO, UT, CA and MT.

@@nottherealjkstill I’d bet a minority of them will end up doing anything more adventurous than commuting and grocery runs

I wash my TRD Pro after I get it dirty. It's called taking care of it. It goes off road if it has to but I didn't get it to go off road I got it because it holds its value better than Toyota's other trim levels and far better than anything its competitors offer, it looks better than anything its competitors offer and it will visit the dealership far less than all its competitors will and should a situation occur during the 100's of thousands kilometers it will drive that requires off roading it will do that better than its competitors too.

@johnhein4851 my point is that 90% of the drivers of offroad trucks never use them offroad

Starbucks....and $850 a month payments for 84 months with a 10% apr...lmao....theres a sucker born every minute

@@johnathoncastro My truck payment is $932 a month, but it's a truck that can last past 1 million miles. I actually made a 3K payment every month instead of the minimal amount. No regrets...but $850 for a mid-size truck---hahaha!

I only have 4 cyl 2010 Rav4!

@@mikem2055 it’s a good car but nothing like that V6.

@@rickm8456This has FAR more torque than the outgoing V6 or even the 5.7 liter V8 in the Land Cruiser 200 series.

Won't last as long

@@rxa177 You’re a genius you should work for Toyota.

Or, being out there, in the woods, and contact "E.T." 😂😂😂😂😂

Lmao

Weirdos who will only be pounding mall pavement anyway.

It's not about power, it's about reliability. That 4 cylinder under a lot of stress over time will not last as long as the 3.5 or 5.7

@@juliusp8269 Toyota 4-cyl engines last forever if not overloaded. The MAIN issue is forced induction. They had to force induction to get the same 'power' as the outgoing larger engines...which always ends in premature failure as compared to N/A. They will lose a lot of sales to the Frontier.

It needs a V8

No, just pant.

They look really nice!

Spoken like someone who doesn't understand there are different kinds of mud and has never taken their vehicle further offroad than a parking lot

They couldn't take them through the mud because other people had to review them the same day and Toyota wants to keep them looking nice for all the press 🤦🤦

I think it's because they didn't want him to.

Yeah because speed in a straight line is EXACTLY what everyone is looking for in an overlander... what a dumb trash comment

JD Powers rated Ford 28th in reliability…slightly ahead of Land Rover. 😂😂😂 Buy that Ford!

@cenciende9401 I agree that speed was a weird thing for him to bring up but they're also very equal offroad. Basically the same ground clearance and approach/departure angles. The ranger does have the better 4wd system which includes a locking front diff that the toyota doesn't have. I would take the ranger raptor or a ram rebel over the Tacoma personally.

@user-vx7vi3vq1c Ford and Toyota are basically tied in cost of ownership though. It's mainly the 10 speed autos that caused reliability issues with fords and most of those problems have been worked out.

That's like saying all BMW or Audi's look similar... Of course they do

Yeah it’s called design language.

Yeah copy/paste design. New 4runner botched 🤮

@@user-ju1qx9dc3w Oh how so?

@@conman1395 yeah good point.
