The tough, heavy-duty ride with the TRD Sport's beefed up suspension is a touch stiffer than some will like, although the Tacoma corners flatly on paved surfaces with it installed. Ultimately, there's an enjoyable combination of sportiness, toughness and capability here.
A solid contender
New to this market? Be sure to check out other contenders like the less-expensive Ford Ranger or the Chevrolet Colorado, which has a lengthier warranty. Similar entries are available from Mazda, Nissan and Suzuki, too.
If a stylish presence and a sporty sense of adventure are priorities for you, you'll likely gravitate towards the Tacoma for its great looks, capability and rewarding dynamics.
