2001 Tacoma Long-term review
Bought the truck new in '01, at a price well below sticker. Added a bed cover, nerf bars, Flowmaster muffler, and most important, a K&N Cold Air Induction kit. The FM and K&N gave it a measurable performance boost. This is the most reliable vehicle I've ever owned. Has been to the shop once for replacement of fender flares, covered under warranty. Spend a considerable amount of time off-road, truck does everything asked of it, which is a lot. Towed a buddy's 24' Crowne ski rig 200 miles when his BMW SUV crapped out, and it pulled like a dream. I'll likely never own another truck, 'cause this one will probably outlast me.
Still solid as the day I bought it
This was my first pickup and I was drawn to it by the practical mix of "clean" and "dirty" space. It's big enough for most tasks, but still easy (and extremely fun!) to drive. Even though it has over 100K miles, it still feels as solid as the day I bought it (used with 15K). I'm still amazed at how well it has held its value. When I got it, I found I had a lot of new friends which proves the saying: "The only thing better than having a truck is having a friend with a truck."

I LOVE WHAT YOU FOR ME.... TOYOTA
I use this truck for everything... Daily driving... work and fun... I am a big time outdoors person... So I decided to lift the truck and change the suspension... because it came stock with the Tokiko shocks... Put Sway-A-Ways in the front and Blistens 5100 in the back and this thing is great off road... never had problems with it at all... Also upgraded the stock radio and cd to a 7" DVD/CD Player and it is great on long trips...
One hell-of-an off roader
In stock form this truck is very offroad capable. Good balance and grip and plenty of power. Only main gripe is the lack of a 5 speed when it was introduced and the damn placement of the digital clock. The electronic rear diff lock works great too. I only wish they offered a front locker too and offer the driver side grab handle on the a-pillar. It was deleted from the LIMITED versions. What marketing bozo thought of that?!
It could of been better
I was very pleased the first 45000 miles .Now im getting a rattle in the dash and some squeaks in the seats and interior noise.This truck was a very tight truck when taking bumps and a pleasure to drive.Now the interior noise and rattle drives me crazy.Also this truck has never been off road wich makes me think what would it have been like if it did.This is a off road pkg.My wifes car has 205,000 on it and doesnt rattle and feels tighter.Not to mention it is a Volvo.
