    Hey folks.
    New Camry owner here in Georgia. Absolutely hate the car. Expecting our first born end of September and think a Tundra is going to help me enjoy driving again.

    But, I've been eyeing that new '24 Tacoma. :spy::notsure:

    Going to test drive a Tundra this week though

    Curse you Perry the Platypus!
    Welcome from East TN! I don't think the Tacoma will have enough backseat space for you when it comes to car seats so I strongly recommend considering a CrewMax Tundra. You can always downsize to a Tacoma when the little one goes to a booster seat plus any bugs in the new Tacoma will have been worked out by then. Just food for thought.

    Welcome from OKC! 3rd gen Tundra is full of flaws. Find a clean 2021 crewmax and take care of it. You'll be set for 15-20 yrs.

    Yeah, was thinking about that too. I do believe the new Tacomas have a bit more rear legroom, but I could have easily just misread that. I know the canyons and colorados have more room than Tacomas.

    I'm sure the test drive will push me over into the Tundra mindset for the new truck

    Look for these for starters.....Blown rear main seals, spun rod bearings, defective window glass, melted fabrics on rear seats, regular seat trim breakage, falling off exterior trim, defective fuel line (recalled). Don't only look here, outside of this site there are many horror stories as well. Just do all your homework before you sign!

    Thanks!

    Yeah, I just saw the defective fuel line one. It runs against a brake line or something? That's insane
