For Those Considering the Toyota Tacoma

[Wags]

Are you thinking about taking delivery of your RR and flipping it to get a tacoma? Just curious

No, I wouldn’t take delivery of it. Still not sure what one I want.

My Raptor is built and I'm seriously thinking about not getting it and going with a Tacoma like I have now. I like the way the Raptor looks on the outside but I like the options and tech of the taco. My taco has been rock solid with no issues. I don't know what to do.

I'm keeping my Tacoma and letting the Raptor go (if it ever ships).
I bought a used 2022 F150 Tremor for a steal, so it was an easy decision to make.

I’ve owned a ‘13, ‘15, ‘16, and currently have a ‘23 Tacoma. All have been solid except the ‘16 being a first year truck gave me some issues. Be hard for any company to beat Toyota’s reliability, that’s why they sell so well.

I have a 2012, and it also has been rock solid.

I mean it will ship… idk why people keep saying this… they won’t make any money with them sitting in that parking lot forever.. they have to ship them.. but again with the quality issues in the past…. I am all for it taking longer to ship as long as it ensures that the QA is done right to minimize issues in the future including future recalls

I’m gonna grab the Raptor cause man it’s a badass truck, and I’ve never owned a Ford before so just curious about another brand. That said if I do have any issues I’ll be jumping back into a Tacoma! Good luck with your decision!

LOL, I know. I love how RR looks but I just think the inside of the Taco is laid out better. I wish I could combine them.

i feel ya and agree. The ranger (even the non raptor) exterior looks better IMO, but the taco interior is so utilitarian. the MOLLE attachment panels on the doors and center stack, the physical buttons for every feature. definitely wish ford would have taken some design choices from them.

yeah, I don't necessarily need a button for everything, but I do like them for stuff I use on a regular basis like temp controls. I hope to make a decision by next week.

No offense, but doesn't seem like you've owned any of them long enough to actually know if they were reliable long term. Let me know when you've made it past 10 years and 200k miles, then we can talk.

No offense Pablo but I don’t need to put 200k on a Toyota to know it’s reliable…..it’s proven so we don’t need to talk

good luck finding one that isn't spoken for for at least 1-2 months.

I am patient… I am in no rush I have other priorities right now will after March… my dealer is working on hopefully getting the truck to be made and delivered closer to the end of the year which is what I want
