Drag Race & Turning Radius! - 4th Gen vs. 3rd Gen Tacoma 

Nice! Thanks for sharing.

Awesome low budget video. Hope you guys make it!!!

Man I’m loving your videos and must tell you my story. I bought a 2023 Sport 4x4. Had it for 2 days and did a crazy thing. I didn’t like the driving experience, it had maybe a problem with jerking on low accelerations and decided to test drive the new 2024. After that test I decided to trade in the 2 days purchase Tacoma 2023 and got the new 2024. The driving has no hesitation, no stiffness bumping and it’s so smooth. I mean I don’t know If I got a bad lemon with that 2023 but it is incomparable how better driving is the 2024. Some inputs will help me understand what happened but I did that and felt a relief afterwards.

Fun Video! Having owned a 23 off road with a Overland torque tune on mild and spicy for the ECT button and currently having a 24 off road, I could have told you this result! No contest all day long! 317 lb-ft of torque at 1700 RPM is too much for the 3rd gen!

To me it didn’t seem that big a diff in the turning radius. Thanks for the video 🍻

That little 4banger turbo is stressing.

The back seat room and seating position is just so so awful in the new Tacoma. Even looking at the drag racing video look past the guys and focus on the rear seating position….the new gen seating looks nearly 90 degrees. A disaster

Wheelbase was increased on the new Tacoma

4th gen for me

The 3rd gens powertrain will be superior in long term reliability

What wheels are those on the 3rd gen taco ? I want them for my 4th gen

Can you guys compare Manual transmission?

Why no test with pulling a trailer?

4th gen looks good but the 3rd gen just looks more rugged.

Will the wheel/tire on the 3rd gen fit on the 4th gen. I'd be curious if tire/wheels were swapped, what the drag race result would be...

Where was this and what is the elevation?

I wish they would bring some of the colors from the 3rd gen into the line up of the new Tacomas.

One is a truck, other is honda race car

After dumping my jeep jku I'm not only a complete asshat, I feel like one. I've been parking my 24 Tacoma like im driving an F650

Bottom line is keeping our 2019 Tacoma better or it’s worth upgrading ? To 4th gen

Well I like to see both pull 3,000lb and see which one go faster

What I don't understand is why are arguing over both of these cars' car-generation who's better when both cars will eventually break down

How about racing a 2nd Gen 4.0?

Can someone tell me so many of these reviewers are drag racing these mid sized off-road trucks? They’re not exactly built to drag race. I wouldn’t necessarily pick a Chevy Colorado over a Jeep Rubicon because it won a drag race

Who buys a truck to drag race?……

Its a turbo no surprise lol idc

So an extra $10k to be a second or two faster? Ehh

1st

Lmao is depends 3rd generation the number 1

3rd gen will tow more

2nd gen is faster than the 3rd gen.

🥱

If I wanted to drag race, I’ll buy a Supra.. If I wanted long term reliability, I’ll buy a Tacoma with a V6 motor.

New 4cyl turbo motors in the trucks, as well as 6cyl turbo, are junk. Feels like it is in the wrong gear at times. It does feel like it has umph, but, the 4cyl umph. That power is “shallow”. Drive a v8 with the same power and a 4cyl, and you’ll know the difference. Overall Feel is cheap. Do not like how it drives, accelerates, cheap plasticky interior and exterior, gigantic and useless screen, lacking weatherstripping between the doors and frames/fenders as well as front and back doors. Overall it is 🤢 🤮… Not worth the money. Go buy the latest 4L and ignore the latest turbo junk… my opinion, these latest turbo motors are made for the latest ignorant generation that does not know cars and are more concerned about tech vs practicality and drivability. Mark my words, anyone with a 4L motor, or even a v6 frontier and ridgeline, will have less issues and will save more money than the latest gasoline turbo “junk”.

Don't mind but I'm going to give you a little tip if you want people to watch your videos please don't lie to them, the new one is garbage they cut so many corners on it but if you just look at the looks of it you won't figure that out the new one will never be as reliable as the third generation you will eventually find out the hard way. I'm even surprised you bought the new one I was considering that I took one out for a test ride you can tell inside all the plastic everything is hard plastic very very cheap just a quality and fit and finish of the plastic is garbage the metal is very tiny very weak the hood is so light when you hit a bump the hood moves I always do my research I always check out a new vehicle top to bottom to see if there's any quality before spending big bucks. But there's some people out there that don't do that they just buy it because they think wow it's a Toyota it's good couldn't be more wrong, the back of it they took the leaf springs away which we know the leaf springs are the best they could handle the weight inside the truck a lot better they are way more durable. The new one they put the Springs with the sharks dates for a car garbage for a truck even when you take the truck for a ride it doesn't even feel solid it just feels cheap that's 4 cylinder turbo motor is not going to last. That turbo is pulling out way too much power out of that little force on the motor about motor is going to be working hard all the time and when you have to put something heavy in the Box or pull some weight with it that Motors always going to be stressed it is just way too small for a truck, but I'm sure you already did your homework before you bought it. And if people keep buying these four cylinder pieces of junk they're going to keep making these four cylinder pieces of junk people stop buying them they're going to have to go back to the V6 it's going to kill their profits, and we know the rich man does not like to lose profits!!!!!!
