The thing I hate about every up to speed video, is that each one makes me want to buy that specific car. Even if I had no interest in it before, I'll want it after watching it. You guys are partially responsible for the 4Runner in my driveway right now
Scg1997 dude this comment had me dying laughing! So true though, i already don’t know what my favorite car is haha
I’ve been looking at 4runners since I watched that video. Also LS’s 😂😂😂
Ok, so it wasnt only me. I was like, damn, I want a Tacoma now...
@@AltimaNEO I already kinda wanted one, having done some research about them when getting my 4Runner, but they're so good at hyping up cars! My friend recommend I look at 4Runners when I was looking to buy my first car, but I dismissed it because I wasn't big on Toyotas (I come from a Ford family). These videos helped change my mind. 10/10, would buy a Toyota again
Dude. Fr. I just got a 4Runner a few days ago
The way they handled the frame issue speaks volumes about the company’s customer relations!
...You mean AFTER they were sued? lol. FYI, they didn't fix the frames on the new trucks. So up to 2017's are in on the recall. 2018+ had a special wax used when parts of the frame are pressed together. That's it. That said, I have a Tacoma and I've sprayed everything that will rust with cosmoline. Should be good to go.
Edit City built with 0 union labor. I personally think unions today are nothing more than glorified paycheck leeches. Maybe they weren’t at one point.
@@BB-nn9en Exactly. A lot of people are complaining about the big three trucks rusting out too, however, I have always said that proper rust proofing is up to the customer. It's simply too expensive and time consuming for the manufacturer to give a prick about that, so when you buy new, cosmolene, undercoat and spray the living hell out of the metal underneath, remove the plastic crevice plugs and spay wax inside the frames, etc. That will help more than anything.
I've got a 08' had 62k on it. New frame. No cost. Done in two days. Haven't had a problem with it.
@@maxre9626 toyota replaced my dads tacoma frame and it was already sprayed and hes got over 400k miles on it at this point.
They (Toyota) bought my 1998 Taco due to frame rust, gave me KBB excellent condition price... it was far from excellent condition, 338,000 miles, every body panel was bent, interior well used, and the clutch was just about gone. The way they handled that is the reason I bought an 06, and last year a 2020.
I'm still enjoying my 1980 (1979.5?) Toyota 2WD. It's a family heirloom. I love it to death. A Crystler 300 rear ended her 4 years ago, totaled the Crystler, damaged my bumper and tailgate. Took me a while to find original parts to restore it. Was a headache. Hope it never happens again. I'll hold on to this little truck like my life though
@@eastwood4006 dang id be cautious driving that truck around even though id want to just show her off on the road lol. That 1980 year toy is what i am looking for as its my birth year and i love that body style. 🤙🏾
I recently bought a 2021 Tacoma TRD offroad with a 6 speed manual. I've put a thousand miles on it in 3 weeks already. By far my favorite car I've ever owned!
I recently (last Sunday) bought a 96 Toyota Tacoma four-banger, auto. I put 500 miles on it in 3 days. (200 just to drive it home from buying it). I do wish it was manual, but it's still my favorite vehicle (it's a pick-up, not a car) that I've ever owned.
I've had a Manny taco since Oct 16. it is fun to drive but dosen't compare to my 04 4runner
@@c-dublife ah I totally understand that!! My dad had a 2008 4Runner limited with the 4.7. That thing was awesome
Coolest Tacoma story I’ve heard was about a green beret who literally used it as mobile cover when insurgents ambushed an outpost. He basically drifted it right up to the terrorists faces to help the defense. After the fight, it was beat to shit and had an RPG shell stuck in a quarter panel. The dude took a picture of it and sent it to Toyota with a letter of thanks for such a badass truck.
Dude, Google-Fu "Hilux War". It's a real thing!
That’s badass!!!!
I saw a video during one of the FOB Salerno attacks where a Tacoma takes an RPG to the face and it backs up and drives away. Pretty amazing stuff. 10:50ish in this video, might be a grenade?? kzhead.info/sun/fM6ug8mLfaN3mn0/bejne.html
@@frycookcpasTacoma's have been/are the terrorists best friend
"Tacoma" is both a Washington city and a salish (Native American tribe) word meaning "Go Beyond"
And their name for Mt Rainier
Tahoma
That’s a buff house photo you got
Nw love
The city was named after Tahoma
I just sold my 1999 Tacoma a few weeks ago and already miss him. I put every one of the 294,000 miles and still had the original clutch. Ball joints were always an issue. Other than basic maintenance, that thing served me well. I sold it to a 15 year old kid. It's going to be a father and son project. He was super stoked and so was I. It's going to a good home. The only stipulation in the sale was I get the first offer to buy it back if he ever sells it. Almost forgot, that kid told me about this channel too. I've been sick for the last two days binge watching. 👍
I drove a 1985 Toyota pickup for about 25 years, and it was certainly the most reliable vehicle I ever had (except for the legendary rust problem). I really needed a bigger truck, so I traded it in for a used RAM work truck. But in 2017 I couldn't stand it anymore, and bought a new Tacoma as my daily driver.

Yeah me too.
Somebody owes me a dirtbike
I worked at the California factory where the Tacoma was made and we couldn't make enough of them !! Demand was Crazy!!! Iv had mine for 20 years now and it looks and runs great.
I'm a domestic car guy. But I can't deny the toughness, durability and wheel ability of the hylux/ Tacoma. It's a legend
Ngl dude the entire concept of domestic vehicles has pretty much evaporated. Ford, Chevy, GM, etc assemble their cars outside of us for the most part and add like 10% of stuff on their car in US to circumvent tariffs and import regulations.
THEY RELEASED THE 2ND GEN TACOMAAAA *Continues to show multiple clips of 1st gens*
Yep, then later shows Gen 3 too early
Zack Allen cus they know nothing about trucks. Its all for views, while they read wikipedia
@@thrashingjustin while that's a nice insight from you, where's your show? oh that's right...
Juan Luna Santos did i say i have a show? Lol no.
I come here for the laughs, not the weak information.
My dad has drove his 2002 Toyota Tacoma back and forth from work for the past 18 years, and it still shows no signs of slowing down
Same, Dad’s got a 2001 Tacoma with 400k mi and refuses to upgrade until it dies
My dad's taco lasted 300k miles even with how much he completely disregarded scheduled maintenance. He eventually scrapped it. I think he spent 1.5k total on maintenance over 20 years. Unreal to me. So I found a 2011 with 15,000 miles on it, jumped on it, and it's the best thing ever. They're so easy to work on. I love my goddamn Tacoma.
I'm from Tacoma, Washington and I remember in 1995 when the news announced that Toyota was going to call their next truck "Tacoma." My family just looked at each other and asked, "Why? Have they not been here?"
Sorry I didn't get it? Plz explain
@@abet5303 While there are a million beautiful and lovely areas around Tacoma, the city itself is an uninteresting, kinda dirty, working-class dock town. I lived there for 25 years and whenever we had visitors, we never went into Tacoma-proper. It's obvious the namers at Toyota were looking for an unusual name that began with "T." For the record, I have a Tacoma and I love it.
It's also the original name of Mount Rainier.

I was literally going to comment this... I think it should look like a number line with post Malone’s b day in the middle and everything else relative to it... that’s just me tho
I.. I might cry.. I've been wanting this for so long... I have 3 Tacomas, every generation and I love y'all for this :,)
Andy Berrios which gen is ur favorite
Hunter Jackson 3rd gen to drive is great, I got the off-road package so the Bilsteins are brilliant. But in all the 1st gen, all steel body panels no mucking about with plastics.
Who edited this? The whole time he was talking about the 2nd gen reveal there were clips of the 1st gen and the whole time they were talking about the 3rd gen reveal they showed clips of the 2nd gen.
That bugged me as well. And when they were talking about the 3rd gen they were showing the early 2nd gen jumping.
Some guy edits these that doesn't know much about cars especially tacomas. He gets paid good money to edit these and goes on with his day then we notice all his mistakes lol

@C L THIS IS TRUE
Still got my '98 Taco, it was my first car, and it's been with me all the way to hell and back it's now got 375,427 miles, and it ain't slowing down.
As a Tacoma owner I can confirm that the intro is accurate
Mr. Tekkers what is your profile picture
As a Toyota technician I can also confirm the stereotype but let's be the real the current generation isn't very good
Trexxx67 it looks good but the new 3.5 is garbage should have kept the 4liter
I like your profile pic!
Frank Latin It's not the engines fault exactly, the transmission doesn't combine all that well in a truck. In the Avalon or Camry the 2gr-fks is nice but I'll agree the 1gr-fe was perfect for the taco

Toyota means Quality in Pick ups We have 1998,2006, 2019 HILUX in farms all year long and we only stop for oil change.. RIP ranger owners 😂😂
There's videos of Nissan pick ups & Toyota pickups doing 1,000,000+ miles. I really respect that durability/reliability: kzhead.info/sun/a8ulh8d9rKqtZo0/bejne.html kzhead.info/sun/Z6ecY6WfgKtqqa8/bejne.html Stay away from American JUNK vehicles, and you'll be Okay.
I used to work at Autozone and when people would bring in their classic vehicles, I would ask for mileage. The highest mileage vehicle I ever saw in person was a t100 with over 750k miles. I’ve always wanted a Toyota truck since but I never have the money since their resell values match their durability
I've worked on a few T100's that rolled over. Other cars I've seen roll over include pre-Ford Volvo's, classic beetles, and suprisingly a few Acura SUV's
I have a friend who has a t100 with over 400k and still drives like it's new, guy bought it in 99 and said he wouldn't need to buy any other truck again...I can see why
My uncle is a Honda technician and even he told me Toyota uses parts that will last forever, whereas other manufacturers use parts that will all start going out at around the same mileage.
Had a buddy with an 80s Carolla with over a million miles on it. What finally killed it? Forgot to change the oil, ran it dry and blew it up... sad day that was
Jesse Mulock That’s rough. Must have had a 22re. Those old 4 bangers were bulletproof.
This mans is getting so famous he can eat a taco and I’ll still enjoy the video #buffhorses
True
Y’all really do make amazing content. That taco ASMR at the end really proves to the world that you can do anything.
My 96 has an original engine and trans 3.4L 5speed manual has 580k miles on it and I did a frame repair myself in 2015. I take it everywhere and anywhere that it can fit. Still ticks like a clock.
When you dropped that ASMR bite joke I couldn't stop laughing. These videos are just simple info most of us know about. But your level of what they call "extra" kills me! Thanks for the laughs
Just cuz you know doesnt mean other ppl know. We're doing this for the KIIIIIDS! KEEPING THE CULTURE ALLLLIIIIIIIIIVVVVVVVEEEEEE!!!!! Also, thanks. ;)
I guess that was kind of a backhanded comment/compliment wasn't it. Nothing but appreciation for these videos man! I don't know 50% of the stuff you talk about. I'm not as smart as that line made me seem hahaha!! I'm just a Sprinkler Fitter (the fire suppression kind not the lawn kind haha). What do I know? Thanks again for the great content!!
The Toyota Hilux trucks we had overseas were absolutely INDESTRUCTIBLE. Along with cockroaches, I'm pretty the Toyota Hilux could withstand a nuclear detonation.
the older ones could have you seen the topgear segment on the dam thing they set it on fire drowned the dam thing and most of all set it on top of a building that got demoed it still ran
The RadHilux
I have lived in and around Tacoma, WA most of my life, so the Tacoma has always evoked a strange sense of pride.
Waking up in the middle of the night to James whispering "I love you" in my ear was a wonderful moment in my life
Toyota+ Taco= Reliability + tastiness
holy sht dude i see your comments on every car related video xD! and always top comment
Wasn't this the truck terrorists used to mount rocket launchers on ?
Gray filter Guy It so good it used in the battlefield!!
Gray filter Guy Yep. However those are Hilux
Can
Good guy Toyota, paying for replacing frames and reimbursing to people who replaced them beforehand. It may have cost a lot of money but that's a really good pr move, showing that they care. Respect for Toyota.
Toyota and Ford: The only companies I trust.
Alright Jeremiah, you keep your dirt bike.

Terrible joke haha but I did chuckle hahahaha damnit!
I used to have a 4x2 Hilux... IT never ever got rust or broke!! Even in her last days with me running without sensors, the valve cover was broken, but never quit! Love Toyota!
One little known thing about the Tacomas is that at the beginning of Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan 2002, the U.S. Special Operation Forces purchase a lot of these trucks from U.S. dealers, modify them and them ship them to the Area of Operations (AO). There were many reasons for that. 1. The Humvees 6.5L diesel engine is very noisy and is inefficient, compare to a gasoline one. 2. Both Northern Alliance and the Taliban forces used Toyota Hilux trucks and they were somehow similar to the Tacomas (at least in shape) and they are more under the radar than a Humvee or any other U.S. Military Vehicle. Perfect for cover U.S. Special Operations in the area. 3. In case such vehicle was destroyed in combat operations or forced to abandon it was easy to replace.

nice, thnx for the info.
This dude School me until I literally click the link.
Its coolwhen the military uses civilian cars,like the 1st gen silverados
@Gabe Well, an American truck is very rare outside North America specially in Afghanistan. Remember that US SOF missions need to draw as little attention as possible and the Tacomas were perfect for that role. Using American truck would ruin their missions.
Bro I was literally drifting to sleep when you said "I love you" into the mic like that. Scared the crap out of me
I drove a 90 Toyota “Tacoma” as a farm run around. It was the most basic truck I’ve ever seen. No door no bed no exhaust nothing. Had a 4 cylinder with a 5 speed. We beat that thing to hell until the brakes went. I miss that truck.
I am the proud owner of a 2010 Tacoma SR5 Prerunner. Had it for almost a year now, and I never ever want to sell it. SO much fun to drive! Also, even though it's only RWD, it still absolutely rips off-road. I took it to the beach the other day, and I actually pulled out a 4wd Hummer H3.
I laughed so hard when he said shout out to Taylor Swift and Dolly Parton came up 🤣😂
Yeap that's one of the funniest part!!! Hahaha

I had a 1977 Toyota Pickup 5spd when I was a kid & that thing was a fucking monster. I literally drove it over everything. I cracked one of the brake calipers and from time to time the fluid would drain out & I would just slam it into something to stop if I couldn't downshift stop. It ran until I got rid of it, it was amazing. If youtube (or the internet) had existed then, I could have made a successful channel of videos of me driving that little road warrior over signs, fences, logs, through ditches, ramming concrete light poles or brick walls as brake substitutes. Now I have a 1995 4runner...

My friend in highschool had one of these. His recently rusted apart due to living in South Jersey. He really had it gucci'd out with a lift kit and a nice sound system, gorgeous truck. I remember one time I got out of the truck to pet a kitty on the side of the road and he gunned it and caused a skin injury on my left leg that took 2 months to heal.
Give this guy a raise, so entertaining!

I second this movement
Your pictures are out of sync, you show a facelifted 1st gen and talk about it as a 2nd gen, then you show a 2nd gen and refer it as a 3rd gen
Rev glad I’m not the only one that caught that. I was starting to question that the 1GRFE was available in 1st gen double cabs. Of course, it wasn’t. Fun fact, the 1st gen double cab was also never available in a manual. Otherwise I’d have had one.
Ya i was about to say, ive worked at toyota and Lexus for 10 years and i have never seen a 1gr in a 2nd gen taco. Thou im sure someone out there has swapped one into a 2nd gen like i did for my pickup.
noticed it too. I'm sure there illustrators/editors are kicking themselves now
@Donut Media for timestamps, 7:40 you refer to the face lifted 1st gen tacoma as "a new taco" but it's not a 2nd gen. You show the X-runner which was on the 2nd gen platform and proper to what you were trying to say. Then at 9:35 you show the 2nd gen and claim its the 3rd gen. You only show the 3rd gen tacoma at 10:14 I notice you guys did this with the everything you need to know about 4runners and pickups as well, c'mon guys! Fantastic videos but you're confusing the audience you want to educate!
This editing and writing is fantastic
The beginning and ending are brilliant...,oh yea and love the middle content as well!

I loved the end, hah. That was some smooth taco eating!
This episodes ilustrations are pretty messed up. As James talks about the next generation, the video continues to highlight the previous one.
Not only that, but later on in the video they do the exact opposite, they showcase the 3rd gen Tacoma while still talking about the 2nd gen
Yeah, the generations are off each time
They got it all messed up.
Did bug me a bit...
Yes, they did the same exact thing multiple times in the 4runner video. I commented and pointed it out there, but got down voted lol. Personally I think it ruins the credibility of the videos and makes me want to stop watching, seems like more effort went into the jokes and animation segments than actually making sure their facts are straight and line up with "their" footage.

I miss my 88 4runner and 89 Pickup. The 22RE was a beast engine.
2uz is definitely better
1987 pickup was my first vehicle ever and I absolutely miss the shit out of it. That little dookie brown 5 speed was the best vehicle I have owned.
@@xaviercrawford650 my father went through 3 of those! After one failed, he got another and kept the first for parts. After the second one failed, he got a third that was in very bad shape and used the first two trucks as parts to make a Franken-Yota. No panels matched, it was a good machine.
Saab in the background? 😅
I drooled over it all video. I rhink it's a 900 Turbo, which is the first car I ever remember truly lusting after.
Still looking good.
Its a 97ish saab 900
I have a 98 900 turbo
Its a 900 turbo... my uncle has one and I went for a ride with it a few weeks ago. It was real fun. Alongside that awesome ride I also saw a saab 98
I love all your Up to Speed, especially the ones about Toyota. Could you do one about the Toyota Hilux? Pleaseee😍

I do love my Tacoma! It’s a solid truck for a mid-size and the crawl control is awesome
