Toyota Tacoma Overview

Toyota Tacoma is available in Regular Cab, Access Cab (extended cab) and Double Cab (crew cab) body styles, in either two or four wheel drive. Regular and Access Cabs come with six-foot beds; Double Cabs have the choice of a shorter five-foot bed or a standard-size six-footer. The base engine is a 2.7-liter, 159-hp inline-4 mated to a five-speed manual transmission; a four-speed automatic is optional. A 236-hp 4.0-liter V6 is standard on all Double Cabs and optional on 4WD Access Cabs. The V6 is paired with a six-speed manual or five-speed automatic. Four-wheel anti-lock brakes with electronic brake-force distribution and Brake Assist are standard, while stability control is optional on all cab styles, and side-impact/side curtain airbags are available on Double Cabs.

The 2008 Toyota Tacoma is largely a carryover.
