Jaw drops open! :eek:

That truck looks sweet and amazing. Seriously, me likey. Me likely a whole lot.

Questions:
  • Engine and tranny options? New gas v6 maybe? What about a turbodiesel option?
  • What are the overall dimensions and how do they compare with the last generation of Tacoma?
  • Towing capabilities and capacity? This was always a sticking point for some of my friends and co-workers, some who stepped up to the Tundra.
  • What type of techno stuff have they stuffed in there? Anything totally new?

The big reveal is slated for Sunday. It will be interesting to see which engines and trannies are available. Supposedly the interior has been "upgraded". We shall see.

Yeah, I really like the design and the improvements on the interior. Waiting to hear about hp, torque and mpg ratings.

The Chevy and GMC are cheaper. Perhaps a price drop? I'm hearing dealers are expecting June deliveries. My only concern is the new 3.5V6. The 4.0's reliability has proven to be legendary and is a big part of the Tacoma's appeal. Time will tell.

I got into it yesterday. Maybe they took it down. I was able to use the build tab and set one up.
Really? That's funny because I have been on other manufacturers websites in the past and I have also caught a glimpse of something that was put up and maybe was in an accidental testing mode that was then taken down. I could even see some inline comments on the page that were left by the 3rd party development company that NEVER should have been put live before. Too funny.

I like the new look, simple design, can’t wait to see one in person; still would like to make some changes, maybe change the wheels.
What mods would you instal if you had the chance?

Wow! Finally new looks arrived and I really like the simple design which is still attractive one and looks they made major changes in new model. Can't wait to see in Auto expo in city if they bring it.

Some more pictures:










Some internal information about the it.

Engine:

The new Tacoma will be powered by what is likely to be a carryover four-cylinder as well as an all new V6. This new six-cylinder will use the Atkinson cycle, a highly efficient combustion cycle that allows engines to complete all four cylinder strokes in a single revolution.





Design:


More concrete improvements come in the form of the Tacoma’s structure. Toyota has shifted to using high strength steel in the frame, and hot-stamped ultra high strength steel in the passenger safety cage. This should help reduce weight as well as offering a crisper, more refined on-road driving experience in the SR, SR5, and Limited trims.

Off road performance should also see improvements. Rugged TRD Sport, and TRD Off-Road versions feature aggressive suspensions and advanced Multi-Terrain Select. Drivers will be able to select from a range of five different terrain types, maximizing traction by dialing in the Tacoma’s four-wheel drive, traction control, and throttle response.

Exterior:

The 2016 Tacoma’s exterior styling bares a strong family resemblance to the current Tundra, not to mention the outgoing Tacoma. Like those trucks and the recently restyled 4Runner, the new Tacoma has a bold aggressive frontend combined with a rather staid profile. To my eyes the front end styling with its clamshell bumper, high mounted headlights, and two grilles, is a bit discordant. Still, at least it will stand out from the crowd.

Wow, what awesome trucks!!! What, $35 to $40 k. My 91 model listed for about $17 k and bought it for $14 k. That shows you inflation and technology price increase over 24 years. I have people messing with me all the time, asking me to sell them my truck for $5 k and for me to go and buy a new one. I would If I had money trees growing on my farm!!!
