Toyota Tacoma is NOT SELLING for These 6 Shocking Reasons! 

🔴Which factor do you believe has the biggest impact on the Toyota Tacoma's low sales?🤔 🏆6 Reasons You Should Wait For 2025 Jeep Gladiator WATCH HERE 👉ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wlyLP-01thU.html

Price, no V6, reliability. Mid sized trucks are crazy expensive now. Totally not worth what they are asking

So far, Tacoma sales are down almost 60%.

1. Price 2. I4 turbo 3. Hybrid 4. Price 5. I4 Turbo 6. And before I forget THE PRICE

Haven't watched. Price, turbo, 4 cylinder only, mexico, cheap interior on 45k truck, and price.

So glad we got the last year's model. No naturally aspirated motor, no proper parking brake and only the keyless ignition... Keep it, even with the available manual transmission.

Nissan LOVES the new Tacoma!!! 😂

Excellent, honest video. Most Tacoma and Tundra videos claim that everything will turn out OK. My attitude is, "You be the guinea pig." I wouldn't touch either truck for at least two more years. Also, a price cut would be in order.

Asking Tundra prices for a Tacoma I believe is the main reason. Ranger Raptor is like $10k cheaper than a Tacoma TRD Pro and it has way more horsepower.

They let their name go to their head. The frontier is a better truck

1. 4 cylinder turbo 2. Cheap parts and less durable build 3. Price! Price! Price!

The new Toyota CEO has dishonored the Toyoda name

If they had taken the Honda V6 and placed in a Tacoma for under $45k they would have had a clear winner. I have a 23' Ridgeline and that engine absolutely rocks, its almost too good as I'vce already been pulled over 3 different times for speeding. But the Ridgeline will never be an offroad vehicle, thus the reason I've kept my Titan. I can't imagine spending over $50k for a 4 cylinder engine.

Plastic craptastic interiors on a $50k truck. FO toyota

It looks like I'll be keeping my 06 Taco forever......

1. Price 2. Price 3. Price 4. Price 5. Price 6. Price

its so fun that people think toyota just whipped this engine up for the 2024 tacoma. Toyota has been using this engine for years in other toyota and Lexus models. This engine has been very reliable for toyota over the years.

Not a bad looking truck but too much $ for its class, and the turbo 4 is a big pass.

You would think Toyota did their research on what customers want. We bought Toyota because it was affordable and reliable, now it's Lexus pricing for less with plastic quality. I hope they won't tarnish the 4runner, at least that is made in Japan.

I would never be interested in a 4 cylinder on a pickup thats ridiculous

No turbo engine. Thanks

Toyota has officially shot themselves in the foot with the new Tacoma, and Tundra as well. I have been loyal to the brand since 1986, but there's no way I will purchase either of these vehicles.

Don't forget the delivery delays. They were several months late due to EPA certification issues. I was seriously looking at ordering a TRD Off Road. However, using the Web Site build & price app, I couldn't keep it under $50K. If I wanted a bit more it was getting kinda pricey. Various attempts ended up around $53K. Even w/ the pricing craziness lately, buying a moderately configured midsized truck shouldn't water your eyes that badly. The Turbo engine was kind of of a negative. I was driving a 2021 Ranger at the time and I just never learned to love that engine. It was a turd if you caught it off boost. I can't imagine that Toyota would be able to execute it that much better. I hated the indecisive 10 speed as well, but that's another story. So, I ended up buying a 2024 Frontier PRO4x. It's not without it's own issues. My biggest annoyance was the premium package. I had to skip it it because the sunroof steals too much headroom, I'm 6'3". It doesn't have all the fancy off-road gadgetry. Other than that, it's great. especially the nice torquey (non-turbo) V6. FWIW, the mileage is better than I expected - better than the Ranger. Oh, and the price was thousands less than the Toyota. Sure, it's not quite as sophisticated or tech laden, but it's more than sufficient. I'm happy with the choice I made. What's more is that I'm seeing a lot more new (22+) Frontiers running locally than I used to. They were really uncommon before. I think that Toyota's misstep/loss has become Nissan's gain.

I owned a 2007 Tacoma 4x4. What a wonderful truck and it could haul my 6000 lb travel trailer without breaking a sweat. I curse the fool who totaled me out. Also bought a 2008 Tundra 4x4 because I needed its 11000+ towing capacity. That Tundra has been flawless except for needing to replace the serpentine belt tensioner. I’m 78 and expect the Tundra to outlive me and become a family heirloom. Had a current gen Tacoma as a rental a few years back and it was disappointing and would not buy. Been following the rocky history of the V6 Tundra and sketchy omens about the next gen Tacomas and 4Runner and would not buy any of them. Have had the itch for a few years for the 5th gen 4Runner and bought one before end of availability. Love it. I now consider myself a future non-buyer of Toyota trucks. Also hate any brand vehicle with bolt on tablet displays. Thus ends my rant.

For the last 25 years all the hype over new tuck models couldn't be more irrelevant to me: I don't tow. I don't go off-road. I don't race the 1/4 mile. I don't like the concept of turbos. I only want an attractive, comfortable truck that has decent mileage, and can go years and years w/o breaking down. Am I in the minority? Does the truck owner majority pull utility trailers loaded with concrete blocks through Baja at 70 mph?

Price and reliability. It's smart to avoid all those Turbo engines...

No one wants to pay over 45k for an "off road" that comes with crap tires and plastic skids

Higher msrp and interest rates.. I'm sure most manufacturers are suffering.

These vehicles are priced twice what they're really worth. Us suckers aren't getting sucked anymore .

Frontiers looking really good rn

I have the 2022 Taco SR5 2WD, nice and smooth, I put less than 25k on it and religiously change oil at every 4.5k miles.Test drove the 2024 SR5 4x4, nice peppy and quick, I think I’m gonna wait as well as go check out the 2024 Frontier.

ALL Toyota Autos Are Getting Out Of Hand In Prices! No One Can Afford It! There No V6 On The Toyota Tacoma

My 1986 Toyota when I drained the rear diff, had a great big chunk of metal cutting drain out. I was very surprised at that size of it.

The first and only new vehicle I've ever bought was a 1985 Toyota 4x4 pickup. Base model 4cyl 5spd no power anything or AC. Great gas milage lasted 300.000 mil with reg maintenance and no major problems. Cost 8,500 dollars. Wish I still had it.

Towing capacity is linked to changing the suspension from leaf springs to coils. Better ride, but less stability pulling.

Plastic is not your friend in the engine compartment.

Well, personally, I’m an old Mopar guy looking for an overlander. Obviously I went for jeep first. After understanding the stalantis horseshit, I went to Toyota. The allocation model, the dealer markups and outright rarity of anything on any dealer lot, I was forced to look at Ford and Chevy for the first time in my existence. It’s really as easy as that. I never drove one, I never got past the sales experience to even look further into the vehicle and its functionality and its performance. Look at Toyota as unobtainiam.

Bought a new small pickup 6 months ago. Came down to the Tacoma vrs the Ridgeline. based on history and reliability I really wanted the Tacoma. but as soon as i found out - no 6 cylinder - and a Turbo - no thanks = plus the ridgeline was 10K cheaper, roomier, better equipped and more comfortable. no contest

All reasons why I bought a 2024 4Runner rather than the Tacoma.

My 2013 prerunner with 33k miles keeps going up in value. I can sell it for more than it cost, but I’m not..

Is this just for the 2024 tacomas. I be been looking into getting a tacoma, looking from 2018-2022 range. Trying to find one with a v6 Enginee, not that v4 turbo bs

Yeah let’s talk about that tv sized monstrosity slapped on to the dash. Very poor integration from their engineers.

Way to expensive to even consider any more. Also, they try to put too much crap in them that initially may seem neat, but ends up not being used. simply not worth it any more

Saw a 24 TRD OFF-ROAD 4x4 for $42000 yesterday. The 2024 Tundra capstone was $80000 😅

I looked forward to the Tacomas redesign. I was actively shopping for a new Vehicle. I currently drive a Hybrid SUV, which is fine, but I miss my truck and it's greater ability to haul things home and tow more. The first problem is PRICE ! Are they Nuts ! I'm older now and like a nicer interior . So I looked at the Limited trim Tacoma. That whopping almost 11 K Price increase over the previous year is mind blowing. And for me, a deal killer all in it's own. Second, I won't go back to a Non-Hybrid vehicle. I love getting 37 MPG in my Mid Size SUV. So when the new Tacoma came out with a Hybrid powertrain, I thought , Great ! That's what I wanted. Then I found out Toyota Engineers used the I Force Max engine for POWER and TORQUE, not Fuel Economy like a Hybrid is for. What a Bone Headed Move ! The Hybrid only gets ONE MPG better than the non Hybrid Tacoma. Really ? I mean REALLY ? ONE ? This is a Mid Size Truck. It's not meant to be a beast. The facts that people buy this truck to do exactly what I want it for, hauling stuff home on the weekends, and light towing, and just having a Man Vehicle ( Truck ) and not really "offroading" all day every day has gone over Toyotas heads. 98% of the time this will be used for going to work. We need better Economy. I have nothing against a 4 Cyl engine. In fact most Vehicles are totally overpowered today, and that causes problems more than anything. But if Toyota can't build a 4 Cyl engine that gets better Fuel Economy, Like over 30 MPG, and especially the Hybrid, what good is it ? The Toyota Highlander can get 36 MPG and the two vehicles are basically the Same Size. That's my take on it anyway. To Much Money. And a redesign that isn't what the Public at large really need. Sure there will be some fanboys that get them anyway. But I just won't pay that much for a midsize truck that really isn't good at anything it's supposed to be good at...

When I was a kid, people got a house,for that money

Plus a smaller gas tank 18.2 vs 3rd gen at 21.1 gallons and almost the MPG’s..still no hood gas struts for the price..my 2001 Camry came with gas strut for the hood…

Each retouch costs more and drives off more customers with unwanted changes and the higher price.

Priced me out of the market, not just Toyota. My first Toyota was 1985 .

Around here in MD the Dealers can not get them fast enough and very seldom have one in the lot . I have not seen a TRD with access cap . Only disappointed is > no V6 anymore . Prices are out of control on just about any car/ truck

You’re kidding right? Where I live the dealerships sell every single Tacoma that arrives, and sell them at a markup….

ICE Tacoma are flying of the lots but hybrid Tocamas and hybrid Tundra as well aren’t selling at all. If it has battery propulsion in any way Americans will not buy it.

Folks are scared of the engine

Just like Europeans, they let the accountants run the company instead of the engineers.

The price is the main reason for me! That’s why I bought the 23 TRD off road 4x4. ! I never liked turbo engines any kind,anyway because they need more attention to the engine but one thing I have to mention is most Tacoma owners don’t tow a lot of stuff !

Did Toyota hire ex-Ford engineers and designers? Maybe. I was ready to buy a new one, then 2024 model came out and I started looking at used. I'm not using it for a business, contrary to what CA DMV insists in order to charge commercial registration. No, I want an inexpensive VERY simple small truck that NEVER brakes down and can handle some simple homeowner tasks for carrying stuff around without mucking up my SUV's. It should last a VERY long time, especially if I'm paying mortgage prices for it. That isn't going to happen with a turbo engine and all kinds of electronic and plastic bling. Every single feature represents one more thing that is potentially going to break and cost a fortune to fix. Toyota used to follow the KISS principal. I think they've become Americanized with Ford and GMC engineers.

Titan pro4x 5.6 litre just bought one easy choice after researching

Whole car market needs a massive correction. These automakers are way to greedy

Any trucks sailing for more than $35 k is out of reach for most customer.

Well ...they can make all the Toyota Tacoma they want and they can keep all the Toyota Tacoma they do make😅

People only talk about the price. Before 2020, a sheetrock drywall cost $10 to 11, now it costs almost 17, everything has increased in price...Tacomas has always existed with a 4-cylinder engine

“Gladiator leads the segment” just doesn’t sound right.

The ones i looked at would end up @ $50,000 out the door. Almost... Colorado this time. More than ten grand less. Comming from a ' 15 tundra.

funny tittle, because i see them everywhere now

What about to put chapters on a video based on a list. Please save us time , make it easier for the viewer.

I don’t think its problem where it’s made only because I have late 2017 model made in Mexico with no problems whatsoever 105,000 miles on it right now. It’s not Japan’s model any more this was all done in house here in the USA engineered and designed and priced

I like the Toyota Tacoma trucks but the 2024 designs of the Tacoma. I like the features of the Toyota Tacoma.

Mae, what’s the value?

Blame the lobbyists and Congress for the chicken tax otherwise we would have the affordable standard Helix.

SR5 and some TRDs are going for $40k or less here in texas

This is awesome . Not in the sense of wanting to Toyota to fail. Cause I love toyota but for the car world in general . I hope all these hybrids and over engineered cars fail . They will have to lessen emissions and go back to proven models. The leap we took in the last 5-10 years is just insane. It was overly quick. It is going to bite us. I feel bad for the people that fell for it . I don't trust any of it .

Dealerships around me have 50-60 piled up

These modern trucks just plain suck at this point. All brands are cheaply made with a premium price.

Way too expensive for a small truck. Body design is terrible, go look at the side profile of the new Tacoma in person. The area in front of the rear wheels looks terrible, it looks dented to shit because of the bodywork design. And then there’s wheels and tires. Toyota did like most brands do and put smooth riding tires on them so people experience a smooth test drive. But anyone who would buy one of these trucks is also going to want to at minimum replace the tires with more off-road bias tires. If not change the wheels also. The 4x4 models start at $45k at my local dealer and with these wheels and tires they look like cheap fleet work trucks. I’ll keep my Highlander and Camry and continue renting trucks from Home Depot when I occasionally need one.

Weenie 4cyl, giant screens, no keys, tiny back seat, EXPENSIVE.

FINALLY...rear DISC brakes and a (selectively) FULLY-BOXED frame (thicker steel used where needed)....but they cheaped out on the engine and being made in Mexico.

I was looking at a 2024 and then saw the "Base Price" of the least equipped 2WD was over $32K..I stopped looking. Of course no Dealer ever has a "Base Model" on there lot anyway unless it's a huge Dealership...they might have 2 or 3.

Try and drive a Nissan. You may not go back. Toyota has the same problem as American SUVs. Own the market, make changes no one asked for, charge more for it to go “upmarket”. Then watch the sales go down. Are they aware interest rates make car buying a challenge right now? It’s an unforced error.

Tacoma is off my list now

I have a 1991 Toyota….purchased new….. everyday driver… February 2024 I was ready to purchase a new truck…. When I first went shopping…Toyota was my ONLY choice… HOWEVER… when arriving at dealership I realized Toyota had made many changes… actually from the ground up…. After MUCH consideration and heart felt reasons… I decide on 2024 Nissan Frontier Pro4X….. I DONT want a 4 cylinder turbo….. turbos have many issues I don’t want !!!!! And the price is simply RIDICULOUS !!!!! For what they offer!!!! EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED in TOYOTA!!!! And the Tundra with 6 cylinder???? Really??? BTW …. 5 months in my frontier pro4x …. I AM THRILLED with my decision!!!!

need a 4.0l v8 mpg will be just fine as fuel= weight equals movement hence why a corvette can get great Mpg

They need a 6 speed manual strip down version and price

1st year of a new generation of a vehicle. Hybrid version not yet released. Price.

After watching this it’s goodbye to Toyota and hello Honda!🤔🤔🤔

Price and its moar bro-dozer over the top styling. Oh yeah, I don't want a turbo either.

No pick up truck is worth what they now, charge. Especially one with more interior space than hauling bed! Pick up trucks weren't meant to be luxury vehicles. Who ever came up with the idea that they were, needs to be fired.

It got too Damm big. I used to have a 2002 Tacoma regular cab,short bed, 4 cyl. I loved that little truck.

The primary reason is price, the rest pail in comparison. The TRD-PRO and 4runner TRD-PRO are $18k-$20k more expensive than the previous year. That is all that really matters. The motor is a let down, the hybrid is too expensive, the price is too much. A Sr5 Premium TRD-off road is more expensive than my 22 tundrea TRD-Off road.

Why are the prices so high? They moved the manufacturing to MEXICO where labor costs re much less, and they want to charge way more. Unknown reliability. and prices

I was gonna buy one.now is nop nop.thank you for sharing.

PRICE

Be aware of trans problems and blown pistons?

Built in Mexico not in Japan. It explains everything.

Toyota should start offering 2 cylinder scooters

My budget for a vehicle, regardless of brand,model, etc, should not be more than 30k.

Everyone wants the V6 that consumes 11 mpg

I'm very disappointed that toyota. They just listen to gadget fan boys. We did not need an automatic bed door or a 14-inch screen. We wanted a front locker and center locker. Xtra cab trd off road and trail hunter.

Toymota and flawless reliability? Look up their list of recalls.

Well I think th we tacoma are showing signs of bad motors and transmission along with a few other flaws. There is a reason sales are down 59.9%. It what happen when you for get the people who made you great and look at the profits instead. I don’t see any profits if sales are down almost 60%. More like a loss.

Looks way better, but at such a cost...
