Toyota trucks are dead to me the designing engineers should be exiled.

Those wheel wells would be awful. Lots to chop, if even possible, to fit decent sized tires.

Easy render, they took the new tundra and scaled it. I don’t know about a BEV version but the tundras i-force v6TT hybrid puts out some power.

toyota version is much better, i still not sure about the angled fender moulding

It could use more angles and sheet metal stampings. I just want a slab sided truck to be used as a truck. That's kinda ridiculous.

Add a winch bumper, replace that grill, and the Taco will look just fine.

Looks like someone from GM designed the wheel wells.
And what's up with Toyota not being able to have the wheel flares go all the way down to the bottom of the fender? The whole purpose of the flares is to protect the paint from damage, can't do that when you got half a foot uncovered. |
|
It will look like crap after taking it off-road a few times with that painted plastic down low I front of the wheels like that. They also made it so that an upgrader will have to cut up the front bodywork in order to install a functional off-road bumper and winch.
|
|
That is a sadly ugly truck.
How much crack does the man in charge have to smoke to think that is a good look? |
|
Historically, through design generations and just in general - boxy, round, boxy, round, boxy, round...funny how what's old is new again.

Those trucks look god awful.
They also look like they have the ground clearance of a lawn mower. |

Looks like shit.
I dont get, and never will get the GD fascination with Toyota. I rented a '22 4-Runner in Nashville and it was a gawd-awful piece of shit. Underpowered as fuck, noisy, and a real slick 1990's interior. Fuck Toyota, hard in the balloon knot. |

I borrowed a Tundra to pick up a 32 ford. Not a heavy car, but that truck could barely pull it. Piece of shit trans in the thing. Grossly under powered.
Would not buy as a truck that needs to do truck things. Picked up a 1936 GMC Bobber truck with an f-150 (8 years older model, to boot). No issues. |

I just drove a 22 model for 1.5 weeks.
What a piece of junk. Everything felt bad and very cheap. Brakes were inconsistent and touchy. Steering was twitchy and made it kind of hard to drive at interstate speed. Suspension was bouncier than a 1984 Cadillac. Putting it into drive would make a loud clank and cause everyone in the truck to rock back. Engine was gutless. Transmission shifted at weird times. Wouldn't shift down when needed. Seats are terrible and too close to the floor making sitting uncomfortable My empty 14' single axle trailer tossed it around. Loud and noisy cabin. Exhaust tone sounded like a toy. Fuel mileage was worse than my wife's gladiator and not much better than my 2500 Ram. Stereos sounded better in early 90s Geos. Radio and screen was the most counterintuitive setup I've ever seen. I gave up trying to figure out how to do things so many times. Even my 13 year old had a hard time just finding the radio. She hated it and she never hates electronics. Backup camera was a joke. Pretty sure they could have made nicer ones in the 80s. Everything is flimsy and cheap. Just confirmed everything I thought about Toyota. They are a joke and most overpriced and overrated vehicles out there. |

I own a 2009 with the 4 cylinder that I bought new for around $20k. I haven't cared for the 3rd gen ones and probably won't like this one either, but when I finally have to replace mine, I expect I'll be stuck buying another Tacoma because the other choices out there are worse.
I won't even consider a woke Ford shit pile. |

It appears the rendering folks have looked at a lot of current GM offerings.

Never understood fan renders. They’re all the same. Instead of coming up with something new, they take current design features snd smash them together. Yes there are styling cues and patterns from every manufacturer, it hardly do they just add them all together.

Those are some seriously ugly renders.
Does the President of Toyota pull school children out of origami class, sexually molest them, and then put them to work in the Toyota styling department? I cannot think of another reason that Toyota styling is so foul. |

Concept pictures are a bit rough but the official (?) pics look way better.
Honestly , none of the trucks in that class are all that hot. The ford has some nice features , but after driving one for almost two weeks I wanted nothing to do with the ranger. Chevy , ah no thanks. Nissan , idk maybe ? Old tech again , but fairly proven. Toyota , old tech but fairly reliable long term. ??????? |
