2006 Toyota Tacoma SR5 review from North America
"GREAT, I should have traded in the silverado sooner"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
No faults at this point.
General comments?
This truck is very well built, feels solid, handles well, and rides smooth and quiet on the highway.
So far the gas mileage surpasses the window sticker. The 2.7 four cyl.doesn't pull like my 03 Silverado's V8 did, but on the highway I can cruise over any speed limit plus laugh at the gas pump.
If I need speed I have an 04 Mustang Cobra in the garage, but this truck is almost as much fun to drive.
