Not much change is necessary when you have the best selling mid size truck out there by a HUGE margin.

It's always been in a class of it's own in my opinion. Especially since it has the most Hp and worse gas mileage than most of the half tons especially in the TRD offroad models... I feel like it's a little bigger than Ford and Chevy's mid/smaller trucks....

It also seems as if it took the place of the Taco 100's... But even yet Toyota will sell these like hotcakes when buyers can't afford the real 5 lug Taco warrior...

Have not had any issues with mine as far as gas milage.:dunno:If anything,it has improved as I put the miles on it.

I know I gave up a little with the tire package but I was aware of that when I made that decision.
I know two people who own Tacomas. Both get over 20 mpg highway and both love the trucks. I know we have some here to claim superb mileage in their full sized trucks, but I never see better than 16 when I drive it like it's supposed to be driven.

Toyota is the number one mid sized truck by a mile in sales. They must be doing something right.

I'm still not quite sure what that Brianese post means?

A guy I used to work with bought a brand new TRD offroad with the 6 speed manual transmission. He does not drive with a heavy foot but was complaining about 15-16 mpg...

TRD offroad Jim, in case you missed that in my post... :lol:

Though I wouldn't brag about 20 in a midsize when most half tons can achieve this.

I like my 24mpgs just fine if I drive it nice! :lol:
