2016 Toyota Tacoma

[IforceV8]

Leaked pricing and models. http://truckyeah.jalopnik.com/report-2016-toyota-tacoma-priced-from-22-200-to-39-3-1716230202

Hmmm, missed that some how. Figured they'd be keeping the manual in the 2wd models. Also the truck looks like it got about a $3,000 bump in price.

 

[Tornado]

Kinda surprising that Toyota seems to be ceding the fleet market.

 

[IforceV8]

2015 DC LB 4x4 TRD sport with Entune/JBL/Nav TRD sport pkg tow pkg and AW mats- $35,770
2016 DC LB 4x4 TRD sport similar spec $37,860

The BZ package is the fleet spec, model 7162.

Perhaps an upgrade to a more premium level?

 

[CodeRedR51]

Apparently, these have GoPro mounts.

Interesting.

When this is your main competition http://gfunktastic.kinja.com/how-not-to-treat-your-customers-gm-edition-1719671835/1719777305 that GoPro will come in handy when that diehard GM buddy needs a video for his court case.

Holy crap. Talk about destroyed.

 

[IforceV8]

+34 hp and -5 ft/lbs over the current model.

 

[YSSMAN]

I really dig that sandy brownish-greenish color. Like, way too much.

 

[Omnis]

Bilirubin Pearl?

 

[IforceV8]

Needs a traditional front bumper.

[Grandea GTR]

I just look at the front and it honestly reminds me of a fat man grinning.

Details. 278hp 18/23/20 mpg combined 4x4 V6 AT. http://www.tfltruck.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/2016-toyota-Tacoma-Technical-specs.pdf

Needs a traditional front bumper.

Slap and ARB or Pelfreybilt bumper on it and it will be fine, I don't think the Taco's have ever had the best looking bumpers on them. Eventually I want to replace mine, but all in due time.

I'm also slightly disappointed in the fuel economy figures, that's not really any better than my truck although it does have more horsepower. Now if only they could bring the diesel to the states then I'd be happy.

 

[IforceV8]

Yeah I have no doubt that the aftermarket will have several options soon.

 

[Cowboy]

Front reminds me of the 4-Runner. Rear reminds me of the Tundra.

It's OK I suppose

 

[Joey D]

So this is happening:



And this was my reaction:

The black Taco in the BTTF movies made me fall in love with the truck and eventually buy one. I can't wait to see what they came up with.

Here's the GIF for those who don't want to watch the video:

 

[YSSMAN]

OH MAN.

A tough-lookin, truly cool Taco? I'm in. Wonder what that Camry over there is?

Would.

 

[Kitten]

Those rear Ambler Tail lights makes it look likes it a much older vehicle i dig it.

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

I haven't had a Tacoma since...2010, so I wouldn't mind buying this one. I too always loved that Back to the Future Toy and this is an awesome modern homage to that.

 

[Grandea GTR]

Goddangit.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Wrong thread?

 

[Grandea GTR]

Wrong thread?

Yup. Ugh.

 

[IforceV8]

 

[homeforsummer]

The vid's not quite as cringey as I thought it might be. Obviously very promotional, but not a bad attempt.

 

[-Fred-]

I want that. Not the Mirai though.

 

[Joey D]

So much fangirlin' over that truck right now.
