I review the Toyota Tacoma TRD 4x4 OFF ROAD truck. I talk about all the awesome 4wd performance and components as well as explain why this mid sized truck is awesome off road. I get under the truck and show the off road features and capabilities from a mechanics perspective and give my opinion as a heavy duty mechanic whether or not this Tacoma truck is worth it and if you should buy it.
What is going on guys today we have a guest on the channel and it is this beautiful 2019 Toyota Tacoma TRD off road truck. I love this truck and I was very excited to review this truck and see if it was actually any good off road! So in this video I go over all the cool off road components and explain how they work and why each off road component is important for off road performance.
first off all the TRD off road package comes standard with a locking rear differential which is amazing for off road. the TRD sport package comes only with a LSD so this is a big upgrade for off road performance
next this truck comes with off road tuned Bilstein shocks giving this Tacoma an awesome off road ride and comfort which is exactly what you want.
the gearing on this truck is an aggressive 3.91 gearing, meaning that you'll have plenty of torque being delivered to your wheels in 4wd especially when you are in 4wd low giving the truck a 36:1 final drive ratio. excellent for rock crawling and off road trails!
this truck has added skid plates for protecting the underside of truck when in deep ruts or mud. this truck also does not come with a front splitter and this will add much needed ground clearance when in snow.
the v6 engine delivers great power when needed and can even tow up to 6,800 lbs which is great for towing some toys around!
this Tacoma with the TRD OFF road package come with lots of electronic off road features. including MTS (multi-terrain select) and my favourite is the crawl option.
the crawl option on these trucks is a really cool system that basically forced all wheels to turn very slowly and controlled and can get the truck out of basically any situation which is very cool!
so as you guys can see this Toyota Tacoma TRD off road is a very capable unit and I can't wait to show you guys my off road footage. the truck did much better then I thought it would!

Good info. Thank you!as of yesterday I purchased the 23 TRD OFF ROAD and Traded my base model 2017 4x4 tacoma.Yes even the base model held its value very well,only 17k financing with 53k miles,not a bad trade in.

I was able to get this truck for an amazing deal and it was the only 6 ft. bed double cab at the dealership. It was sold already and they had it hidden in the back but the buyer had gone out the country and lost his truck so I scooped it up. went from a 21 Honda civic hatchback sport to the Tacoma trd off road. I like it so far. plan on taking it up to the mountains soon.

I person own a 21 Tacoma TRD OR4x4 in a automatic and have thousands of off road miles on it so far from sand to mud , rock crawling & snow & I would not trade it for any other truck out there , most people DO NOT know that the OFF Rd and the PRO Tacomas share lots of parts with the Hilux , like the 8.75 inch rear diff , spindles , hubs etc. so the OR & the Pro versions are pretty robust built compared to the Sport models and lower …. Good review 👍🏻

@J.Young808 5 месяцев назад

I’m actually going to increase my MPG/ L/100km and lower my bill because I’m coming from a Subaru Outback XT that’s lifted and requires premium fuel. Even if I only get 18mpg in my TRD OR access cab I’ll spend less. I’m hoping for 20+ since I drive like a grandma with Honolulu gas prices. Sam’s Club & Costco $4.14-regular & $4.34-premium outside stations are $4.54 & $5.09 respectively and that is the cheaper station brand. National stations are a few cents more expensive. I am picking up a 2023 TRD Off Road 4x4 Access Cab on Saturday Jan 27th since it’s the last of the Access Cab style xtra cab. Plus I like the look better than the DCSB/DCLB.

I owned a 2012 Tacoma TRD Off-Road for 6 years and 120k miles (4.0L V6, 5 speed auto) before jumping into Rams. I did a ton of off-roading including Hell Revenge in Moab, etc, so they are capable. The A-TRAC did help the front end with no locker. The only consideration is size which is good/bad. Lacking bed space, cabin space, and towing but they're pretty lightweight so if you don't need the capacity of a larger truck they're a great choice.

@TheGettyAdventures 2 года назад

you nailed it on the head. if you don't actually need a truck to do truck things then this is a great option. obviously you could tow some sleds or atv's but I wouldn't be wanting to tow camper trailers with this tacoma.

Best of both worlds....

@limixz28 2 года назад

@@TheGettyAdventures the double cab with the 6 foot bed is the one with the longer wheelbase. The 6 foot bed on the access cab is taking up the space where the double cab would be. Not adding extra length. But it will add length if you combine the 6 foot bed with the double cab.

@jasongaudreau2075 2 года назад

Just a thought on your comment about payload weight…your power wagon most likely has a steel bed sitting back there. That Tacoma has a composite bed. So ya the power wagon has a shit ton MORE payload, it’s just already taken up by the empty bed.

@TheGettyAdventures 2 года назад

didn't know that. and ya thats what I figured the PW is already such a heavy truck it kind of kills the payload whereas the Tacoma is just a lighter truck and therefore allows more weight.

The Tacoma is NOT a "heavy duty" vehicle. Heavy duty is 3/4 ton and up. That means Ram or Chevy or GMC 2500/3500, or Ford F-250/F-350 or above. This is a LIGHT DUTY vehicle i.e. half ton. It's equivalent to Ram or Chevy 1500/Ford F-150. If you're confused look at other auto makers naming, Chevy/GMC even has HD in the name for 2500/3500 but there is no HD in the name for 1500.

@TheGettyAdventures 2 года назад

the Tacoma is a mid sized truck. what i was getting at is the payload numbers. Technically this Tacoma can put more payload in it then my Ram 2500 Power Wagon. having an HD truck means nothing. for example most HD trucks have a Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) of 10,000 lbs. but if the HD truck weighs 8,500 lbs then you can only have 1,500 lbs of payload. Yes the truck is bigger and stronger and the axles are tougher. but you can still only have 1,500 lbs of added payload before you are overloaded. where as the Tacoma may have a max GVW of 6,000 lbs but it only weighs 4,460 lbs. meaning that you can but 1,540lbs of payload in the truck. resulting in a higher payload. yes the truck is not as "heavy duty" but it can handle more payload.

i wonder if i could put a taco in the bed of my powerwagon and go up a hill.....ill be back with the results

@TheGettyAdventures 2 года назад

lmaoooo. I mean in reality you could probably put the Taco on a trailer and pull just about anywhere. On the flip side the Tacoma ain't pulling the PW anywhere.

Access cab 4 x 4 is a four-door, suicide doors

@user-bx3zz9cx3y 2 года назад

You can only access the rear of the cab after you open the front doors so, no, the “Access Cab” is not a four door.

@TheGettyAdventures 2 года назад

It's an okay midsize truck. My only problem with them is, some people not all, ride the high horse pretty high about them where I live. They are a rough ride and have no room, not sure why it has been deemed as so superior. Depreciation is the only superior part about them IMO. I think I would rather a Ranger. More room in the cab and better bottom end torque, also a deeper frame. Rangers towing capacity is 7500 lbs. The internet is just swamped with Toyota fan boys and they don't sell that many trucks. I think the old Corolla drivers must get online and chirp. Now the new Tundra from an engineering/mechanical standpoint is superior to others on the market, different story there. Credit where credit is due.

@TheGettyAdventures 2 года назад

great comment! love the honesty, and I would agree there is some folklore around these trucks that may over hype them. I will agree the interiors are very basic for how expensive they are, it's also pretty loud when driving and the ride was rougher then I expected. I did think my Power Wagon would mop the floor with this tacoma but it actually held it's own very well. That video should be coming out tomorrow!

@@TheGettyAdventures The Ranger Tremor package is quite a nice competitor to it. Priced competitively too. Okay man thanks look forward to it. 👍

@kevinjust6740 2 года назад

I don't own any of these trucks but from sitting in several of the trucks and positioning the seats to where they were comfortable for me and sitting in the different seats I'd have to say the ranger was the smallest inside, the only thing it had more of was head space, but felt much more narrow and less knee room in the back. The Colorado was a little better than the ranger but still felt more narrow than the tacoma witch yes had less head room and dose have a different seat feel. But I don't mind ether way because I'm used to driving what ever get's me from here to there, usually old work trucks or cheep used vehicles and comfort usually being secondary. Also I might have miss understood where you said they don't sell that many trucks but I'm pretty sure I saw information on midsize trucks sold and the tacoma sold as much as the next three competitors combined but I might not have understood what you meant and that just my experience, by no means law.

@peiguy1982 2 года назад

@@kevinjust6740 Disagree the new Ranger is not small inside, I test drove one. Plus you don't hit your head on the A pillar like you do in the Taco. I'm 6'1 and headroom is not a problem and you don't sit on the floor of the thing either. It's the international platform and that is a heavy frame for a 1/4 ton. Toyota sells 60-70k Tundra's and 150k Tacos. Ford and GM sell nearly 1 million pickups a year and Ram is 600 to 700k. So nearly everything you called me out on you're wrong about. I'm sure in the next gen Tacoma will correct all these things, ride, fuel economy, cabin room. Then all you fan boys will wonder why you spent all these years on the internet tapping the keys. That's sure what they did with the Tundra.

@kevinjust6740 2 года назад

@@peiguy1982 Lol well like i said i don't own any of these trucks so calling me a fan boy don't really mean nothing but you seem alittle defensive about it. I was just giving my opinion about how it felt for me someone 6' who sat in and tested these and the ford for me was like holding hands with the person next to me but obviously you feel different, like i said it don't matter to me. But i was specifically talking about midsize trucks not the whole line of vehicles or trucks. And not that BS that ford puts out about being they're F series being the best selling truck when they don't tell you that they classify all they're trucks, even the semi trucks they make F series. So from my dealings with fords and working in several of they're factories and dealing with people that work there i'd personally never own one, so i'm not so much a toyota fan as much as don't trust or care for ford fan i guess. But i still say of the trucks in the midsize class it feels the most narrow to me, but yes does have more head room and in the end to each his own as long as the owner is happy with it what does it matter.
