Thank you for the tour. Unlike most here, I'm not really into heavy off-roading, rock crawling but I am into deep woods and back roads camping. So I'm kinda leaning toward the Trailhunter Edition.
That’s a sweet looking Pro Taco ) The only thing I don’t like is the gloss black it will show every little scratch and mark even if you press to hard when your wiping it down . My 22 BMW had the shadow line option with gloss black mirrors , grill and skirts/trim and it looked sweet but showed every imperfection. It was horrible to take care of and worse as time went on. After experiencing it first hand it would be a deal breaker for me especially with a gloss black roof 😮 Other than that it’s a beautiful truck love it! Hopefully they’ll have color options without the gloss black.
Rad stuff Chloe! It does seem like the TRD Pro is getting more exciting additions. But I think I'm on team TRD Off Road still. Hmm, now to try and get my hands on those Batman seats! 🙂
Nice to see them trying something different with Terra. Also, Toyota already said the extra width on the pro is just wheel size and offset (which you mentioned), not longer suspension like the AT4. I just wish they’d announce pricing already.
Pricing has already been released/leaked. search on youtube, a toyota employee has released pricing. the highest priced trail hunter will be 53900, TRD Pro 51,900
When was the last time any Tacoma had passengers in the back seat. Toyota would do good to delete full size rear seats and 4-door models. Stick with the extracab. All Tacomas would be better if the interior layout looked a lot more like the PreRunner. The truck would have a 6' bed, plenty of storage space behind the driver and passenger seat, weigh less as a result of having a smaller cab, and get better MPG. Rear seats in a Tacoma are still worse than worthless. They come at the expense of every advantage that would exist if they were deleted.
@@RedondoBeach2 hard to disagree with you when it comes to midsize trucks like the Tacoma. The Frontier's rear seat room isn't much (if any) better. There's just no getting around the fact that you'll have to sacrifice bed capacity if you want a real quad cab.
Terra looks pretty bold but I will likely go with Underground for the color. Will still get some of the two-tone pop but not such a big pop! TRD Pro as long is the price isn't outrageous here in Canada!
I placed my deposit for a 2024 Tacoma TRD earlier this year for MSRP. It will be replacing my 2019 TRD Pro. I understand the poor driver ergonomics on the current generation have finally been resolved.
Aloha Chloe. This was a great in depth analysis for the Toyota Tacoma TRD-Off Road and the TRD Pro. This is a unique change of the new Tacomas to be more muscular. The Tacomas appear like the miniature version of the Toyota Tundra. Great job on your video 📸👏 reporting Chloe.
Very interesting demonstration the two Tacoma trucks, I am in the process of getting me a truck and this video will help me decide which one of the two to get, great work, keep it up.
Orange is my favorite color. That was a huge deciding factor when I bought my 2017 6 years ago. It was sad that they discontinued the Inferno color. I’m curious how similar this color is to Inferno?
I actually think (and this is based on my own perception) that Solar Octane is closer to Inferno. Terra is much more muted with brown hues, but also looks dark orange in the light.
Everything I see makes me very happy I picked up a ‘23 Pro with a Manual transmission….sure there is some cool features on the ‘24, but super glad I went ‘23.
I have a TRD sport 4x4 2022. It is good enough. It all depends how much you want to build it if you go offroad. I got a lift and bigger wheels and tires and it is mostly unstoppable. I mean I am sure the Pro and offroad can do better and if you can afford go for it, but you can get much better deals and build up slowly if you go for lower trims. Even with this old generation pro can get seriously expensive and then there is dealer market adjustment.
Yes, they take up a lot of leg room for rear passengers. Unfortunate, especially since rear seat room didn't really get any bigger with this generation.
I have a few video clips of myself sitting in the back seat of this Pro that I unfortunately missed putting in this video, but will incorporate into an upcoming one! The shocks don't take up a lot of room where your knees are because they are higher up
Chloe, if you get a chance ask them why they left the air dam off of the Trd pro but put one on the Trd off-road. If it’s all in the name of MPG, why wouldn’t they give the Trd pro the same treatment?
While I am excited about these and am really excited about the TRD PRO… these debuted in MAY!! It’s now almost mid November and there is yet to be any reviews of anyone actually driving it… after 6 months of the initial debut I would of expected something by now.
3:58 I gotta say though the seats on the truck are not a 45 degree angle facing upwards like in the simulator chair, and it's like that the whole time.. This means that gravity is keeping you in the seat and that's why you're not moving around the way you were in the videos of you off-roading. i honestly question the functionality of these seats. I'm not getting the TRD Pro for the seats though. I'm getting it for everything else :)
With the increased size and weight, Toyota should’ve kept the V6 at least as an option….the sales numbers will convince Toyota otherwise. My concern with the I4 is the plastic value cover…only time can tell how well they’ll hold up under load and use.
This was the reason I got the third gen. I would have waited for this model but saw there were not going to offer the V6. Its such a bummer they didn't do the V6
I'm not really interested in the seats. Seems a little unnatural. Disconnected from the road. Which is the whole point of off-roading. The only performance item I feel is the suspension, which I feel was a pretty nice upgrade. Everything else is simply aesthetic, and I'm not sure it's worth the price difference. This is why I prefer the offroad vs the pro. We're gonna modify it anyway.
I like the 4runner more based on my needs. If i get a tacoma, the back will always be unused. I like my stuff all secured in the back especially my fridge.
I'm not so sure about that glossy black, especially on the fender flailings. It looks good new, but after a few times in the woods, it will be scratched to hell.
The problem with the seats is that the headrest is not adjustable. Once again, Toyota appears to have built the truck specifically for shorter people even though head space was added.
I like the TRD pro, and I would have bought it, however I want the 6 foot bed to be able to sleep in on the travel without having to set up a camp or tent. Why not a 6 foot bed option?
No denying the TRD Pro is the top model but a top spec hybrid Off Road will be close it will all send on pricing if it’s worth doing. I don’t like the ISO seats it essentially turns the truck into a pre runner due to the size My favorite setup so far is a Hybrid Off Road with the sway bar disconnect
Absolutely no leg room in the back for the passengers with those iso dynamic seats. Also if you get into an accident, they're bound to badly damage your passengers legs.
I don’t know I might still hold out for the redesign 4Runner 2025 it’s between 2024 Tacoma trd off road premium. I wanted the 4Runner more but this truck is nice.
