Toyota Tacoma
The midsize pickup that's outsold every American midsize pickup combined, for the last decade. Off-road cred + Toyota reliability + a cult following that's borderline religious.
America's bestselling midsize pickup, year after year.
- $31,500 Starting price (MSRP)
- 24 MPG Combined economy (hybrid)
- 4★ NHTSA safety rating

The verdict
What we think
Best for
-
Weekend adventurers
TRD Off-Road and TRD Pro trims will take you places most SUVs cannot. The Trailhunter version is factory-built for overlanding.
-
Long-term keepers
15-year-old Tacomas still sell for serious money. Nothing else in the class holds value like this.
-
Light-duty work
6,500 lb towing + 1,705 lb payload handles most contractor needs without the bulk of a full-size.
