2004 Toyota Tacoma 4x4 Double Cab TRD review from North America

"A great 4x4 truck with only one big discrepancy, and a couple of small ones too."

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Nothing.

General comments?

This truck is attractive, has ample power, transmission shifts nice, has a good ride for a 4x4, handles nice, console has a nice assortment of cup holders and storage. My off-road use for this truck is beach fishing in Texas. I have had no problem tracking through sand, some of it deep, to get to my favorite spots. The seats in this truck are at times bothersome to downright uncomfortable on somewhat extended journeys. I am 6'1" and 205 lbs., so I am not too big for the truck. Judging from my experience and some other reviews I have read, it might behoove Toyota to have extended comfort in mind for their next generation Tacoma that is due next year. The oil filter is difficult to access, but not impossible. At times when I have reduced the stereo volume, I have noticed squeaking where the top of the dashboard makes contact with the windshield. If you can handle the seats, take a long test drive, and deal with the occasional minor squeak in the dash, then I highly recommend this truck to anyone. This will probably not be my last Toyota truck. I am confident that they will remedy the comfort issue with the seats. However, if they don't, it will be my last. Anybody at Toyota reading?
