For me, it's always been driving position. The floor is too high and your legs are way out in front. Just nowhere near as comfortable as I expect from something that size.
Biggest issues with the current 3G Tacoma?
Just curious what everyone would change most about the current Tacoma.
Based on some digging into the interwebs here are the most common complaints:
Based on some digging into the interwebs here are the most common complaints:
- Transmission issues: Some owners have reported problems with the transmission, such as rough shifting or delayed engagement, particularly in the first year or two of ownership.
- Entune infotainment system: Many owners have complained about the Entune infotainment system, which can be slow to respond and prone to freezing or crashing.
- Interior quality: Some owners have expressed disappointment with the interior quality, specifically the use of hard plastics and lack of features compared to competitors in the same segment.
- Wind noise: A number of owners have reported excessive wind noise at highway speeds, which can be distracting and make for an uncomfortable ride.
- Gas mileage: While the Tacoma's fuel economy is generally decent for a midsize pickup truck, some owners have reported disappointing gas mileage compared to the EPA estimates.
- Paint issues: Some owners have complained about the quality of the paint on their Tacomas, with some experiencing chipping or peeling earlier than expected.

With my experience getting to drive one, the transmission felt a bit off when speeding up quickly or cruising down the highway. But I also plus one to the driving position being a off for someone a little taller.
I've heard people talk about the wind noise but I haven't experienced it. It might depend on how much that stuff bothers you.
I don't if it's either the transmission or the engine but I think the 3.5 L V6 could feel better off the line. The transmission it's paired with is not exactly the best out there and could be what's holding it back. Hopefully Toyota addresses this and other transmission issues.
