 Detailed review:

The 4X4 V6 SR5 TRD, four-door, extra cab is wonderful. Driving a truck with all the benefits of 4X4 and having generous cargo space without worrying about whether or not you will be able to fit the vehicle in a parking space is very beneficial. The Tacoma has all the features one looks for when looking for a family truck. The rear doors give easy access to other family members. The 4X4 allows for a safe drive in rain and snow. The 4 1/2 ft(extendable to 6 ft) bed allows for plenty of space to carry a motorcycle, a lawn mower, or a snow blower. The V6, which I feels is a must for the automatic, is very smooth and responsive, and it provides the extra kick needed to get out of tight spots or rough terrain. Toyota could improve the Tacoma by having better (more comfortable) front and back seats, and making available a V6 with standard transmission for the four-door model. All in all the Tacoma four-door is a great truck, which all the right features and, very importantly, the quality of Toyota manufacturing.
