The Truck In The Pic Resembles Mine - The Body Drop And Rims — the tacoma was a great reliable truck. i had a heavy right foot and loved to pop the clutch. needless to say the only thing i had to replace the clutch. the toyota tacoma was the most reliable vehicle i ever had.

Good Reliable Truck For The Money — This was a very reliable little pickup truck. I had to put a clutch in it, an alternator, and a few other small things. But....these were its only problems in a matter of 250,000 miles. I put only one star for appearance because after I smashed it off a guardrail, it didn't look too hot. It wasn't the fastest thing, but she was fun in the snow. Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

Great Rig — I would tell anyone that wants a pickup to go anywhere buy one of these pickups four wheel drive of course. They last a long time and are really reliable. They get really good gas mileage to. Go out and get yourself one of these pickups. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) | ||

Great Truck. Durable. — I like this truck a lot. It is mechanically durable and dependable which are my priorities. The 4wd is also great and it is very capable in the snow and off-road. I wish the 4 cylinder had a little more power. I wanted a 4 cylinder to get better gas mileage than the V-6 but I still only get around 17 in the city and 21 on the highway, and it doesn't accelerate very happily. I'm not sure what MPG the V-6 gets. The truck also looks good and tough. Owner for 2 years, 0 months Miles Driven per Year:12,000 | ||

ProsGreat Gas Mileage, Wonderful Power For A Four Cylinder, 5 Speed Manual, Long Bed, Great Towing ConsThough I Would Never Get Rid Of This Truck, I wish it were a V6. I don't really have any issue's with traction during the winter, but I wish it were 4WD.

It's My Baby! — I really have nothing negative to say about my truck, I love it! I bought it brand new back in '96, and I wouldn't trade a thing or take any amount for my truck. It's been shipped oversea's with me, and brought back home to Kentucky. Though I have had many vehicle's since owning this truck, I have always preferred it over anything else i've owned. Primary Use: Utility (towing boats, transporting cargo, etc.) | ||

Tacoma — The truck is great. It handles well and has more power than you might think. The truck is in great shape for a 96 and the interior is as clean as the exterior. Great gas mileage and low maintenance costs. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) | ||

Best Truck Ever — I bought this truck with 92000 now has 211000 spent about 200 in parts to maintain running operation of the truck. Replaced rotors twice a starter part and a thermostat. Still runs strong but I am getting nevous. I told the father in law who I bought it from "hope it makes it 100,000 for me". Its made it and then some. Cant afford a new one but love the body all the way up to 04. he 05 and up are ugly with the fenders bugging out. Would definatley buy another if the price was right. |
