2006 Toyota Tacoma
by: Stuart Simpson, Tue Dec 6th

 

Another impressive redesign by Toyota this year was the new 2006Toyota Tacoma. This truck has morphed from a small to a mid-sizepickup truck. You are familiar with the Tacoma's of the past.They are as reliable as the day is long, but how will the newtruck compare?

I went shopping, and to be honest, I was checking out the NissanFrontier, too. Its been redesigned and is about the same size asthe new Tacoma. The Nissan has a rail system in the bed of thetruck, but the Toyota has it on the deck edge up higher. I likeit better as it seems as though it would make tying off items alot easier. Also, in the bed, there are two neat lockablestorage compartments nestled so they aren't noticed. Prettyslick.

The new V6 has 236hp, which is no slouch in anyone's book. Theold V6 had about 190 hp I think. The standard 4-cylinder is 2.7liters and rates 164 hp, which is more than most V6's.


There's an X-Runner available, which is more for show and go,than off road or work. My dad got the previous version, whichwas an S-Runner Tacoma. They are slick. Dad's is way cool, andI've seen only one X-Runner at a car show as they sell beforethey are around on the lot too long. A pickup that can hold.9G's on the skid pad will rival most sports cars. Basically,the X-runner has everything. The Prerunner and double cab arethe top of the line for the 4x4 trucks, but they have manyoptions. The only option I can find on the X-runner is daytimerunning lights.

Don't worry, the SR5 still comes loaded up with a chrome grill,color bumpers, overfenders, leather steering wheel, and variablewindshield wipers. The V6 has fog lamps and the sport packageincludes the limited-slip rear differential. The off-roadpackage adds larger wheels, better suspension with bilsteinshocks, a locking rear differential and skid plates and towhooks.

The TRD Sport truck is my favorite with the hood scoop, 17"wheels, nicer seats, power outlet and a neat overhead consolewith compass and temperature gauge.

The Tacoma isn't the little truck you see around anymore. Mydad's had 4. I've only owned one Toyota truck and I drove ituntil the wheels fell off. But you know what? It started and ranevery time. I'm sure the trucks we see on the lot today willlast another generation due to Toyota's unsurpassed quality.
