2025 Toyota Tacoma TRD Lineup

How could an earthquake more than 7,100 miles away from the North Carolina mountains impact your bottom line if you're car shopping? It's all about the supply chain. The truth is, no one has a crystal ball and knows for certain, but smart buyers are considering the possible impact. Toyota and several other Japanese manufacturers temporarily paused production at some facilities following the recent earthquake while engineers inspected plants, suppliers, and transportation infrastructure. That's a standard safety procedure after a significant seismic event and doesn't necessarily indicate long-term production problems. Still, the pandemic and the shortages it caused in our supply chain are still fresh enough in our memories to cause caution. It's a reminder that today's automotive supply chain stretches around the globe, and events thousands of miles away can eventually influence what shows up on dealership lots here in North Carolina. Which Toyota Models Could Be Affected? Industry analysts have identified a few models that could experience tighter inventory if production disruptions continue for an extended period. These include: Toyota Land Cruiser Toyota Prius Toyota Corolla It's important to emphasize that no widespread shortages have been announced. At this point, manufacturers are still evaluating facilities, suppliers, and logistics before determining whether production schedules will be affected over the coming weeks. We've Seen This Before This isn't the first time the automotive industry has faced unexpected challenges. Over the past fifteen years, manufacturers have dealt with: The 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan Global semiconductor shortages during the COVID-19 pandemic Shipping delays and port congestion Severe weather events affecting manufacturing plants Labor disruptions and transportation bottlenecks Each event affected inventory differently. Some caused only minor delays, while others created shortages that lasted months. The lesson is simple: the automotive industry has become very good at adapting, but unexpected events can still influence availability. Should You Buy Now? There's no reason to panic or rush into a purchase simply because of one news story. However, if you've already decided to purchase a specific Toyota—especially a particular trim level, color, or package—it may be worth beginning your search sooner rather than later. Limited-production models often have less flexibility than high-volume vehicles, and if inventories tighten, buyers may have fewer choices. If production returns to normal quickly, nothing changes. If disruptions last longer than expected, shoppers who waited may discover longer delivery times or fewer vehicles matching exactly what they wanted.

Overlanding has been a thing for quite some time now. But seeing as we are still in a global pandemic and flying is not the ideal form of travel, more and more people are seeking adventure in other ways. TruckHouse has capitalized on this trend by creating the BCT. The TruckHouse BCT is essentially a luxury camper truck. Drivers and passengers can take extended trips across the country, hit the beaten path, and live off the grid without sacrificing comfort. This vehicle continues what the 1980s Toyota Sunradar started. If you can imagine a miniaturized RV falling onto the cargo bed of a 2021 Toyota Tacoma, you’ll have a pretty good idea of what the BCT looks like. Yet, the design is remarkable, and it doesn’t give off a hodgepodge appearance. Does it come at a cost? You bet it does. Customers should expect to pay anywhere from $285,000 to $380,000 for the transformed Tacoma. But just wait until you see how awesome the BCT is. Below, we’ll talk about the primary features, some of the best adventure trips you can take in the United States, and more. Main Features Let’s start with the truck. There are three “stages” available for the BCT: One, Two, and Three. You can get Stages One and Two with a Tacoma TRD Access Cab or TRD Sport. For Stage One, TruckHouse puts on a new rear bumper, a reinforced chassis, long-travel suspension, a specially fabricated rear axle, and 33-inch tires. Stage Two adds 35-inch tires and builds on Stage One from there with a modified front bumper, drilled and slotted disc brakes, extended-range fuel tank, a snorkel, an air compressor, and a front winch. The features really beef up for Stage Three, for which you need a TRD Pro. Special front and rear differentials, an upgraded long-travel suspension kit, ultra-tough front and rear winches, and auxiliary lights are added. Now, for the single-piece carbon fiber reinforced composite house, which is not your average camper. It looks sleek, and it seamlessly fits onto the Tacoma body. The house offers an automatic awning, seven dual-pane safari-style windows, a three-point locking entry door, an electric entry step, multi-access gear storage, a torsion-free mounting system, and a 10-speaker soundbar, among other features. The interior of the camper doesn’t leave much to be desired either. Sleeping accommodations for four adults (including a queen-sized bed), a bathroom with shower and toilet, and a full galley come standard. You can also opt for a 32-inch LED TV, heated floor, 12v air conditioning, heating, Wi-Fi, upgraded insulation, two captain’s chairs, and Bosch appliances (including an oven and a marine-grade refrigerator and freezer). In other words, it has everything you need for a glamping adventure. Behind the Creation As previously mentioned, the TruckHouse camper fits the Tacoma body perfectly. That may be because TruckHouse spent more than 1,000 hours on blending the camper with the Tacoma’s proportions, body lines, and utility. Describing the design process, COO and co-founder Nicolo Monforte said: “We started by breaking down what the perfect overland camping experience was to us, and from there we built the most capable and livable vehicle we could imagine.” He has also stated that the Tacoma was chosen as the foundation of the BCT for its “modest size, maneuverability, and proven longevity.” Adventure Trip Ideas Whether you determine to invest in the BCT or you simply want to continue daydreaming about what could be, here are a few of the top locations for adventure tripping in the US: Grand Canyon. Perhaps America’s most famous natural landmark, the Grand Canyon is simply majestic. Along with breathtaking views from countless angles, this spot provides lots of opportunities for hiking, whitewater rafting, and many other activities. Yosemite. This is a favorite among outdoor enthusiasts, and it also offers grandiose scenery. Visit Yosemite National Park, and you’ll find plenty of opportunities for hiking, horseback riding, and biking. Yellowstone. If hiking is one of your favorite pastimes, Yellowstone National Park may be the cream of the crop. Splendid mountains, canyons, meadows, geysers, and waterfalls stretch over 3,000 square miles, and you’re sure to see bears, buffalo, elk, and other wildlife on your adventures. Adirondacks. Moving east, the Adirondacks in upstate New York provides adventurers with stunning scenery and opportunities for thrilling activities. Skiing, bobsledding, canoeing, and fishing are some of the most popular activities enjoyed in this mountainous area, which stretches over six-million acres. The TruckHouse BCT is expensive. But boy is it amazing. If you’re looking for the ultimate adventure vehicle for exploring the US, then it doesn’t get any better. Just keep researching all the different trips you could take, and let your imagination run wild with what you could do with the specimen that is the TruckHouse BCT!

The 2020 Toyota Tacoma comes from a long line of successful midsize pickup trucks and has garnered a loyal following from off-road enthusiasts over the years for its superb performance and reliability, among other factors. But the popularity of the “Taco” reaches far beyond the niche of those who take the road less traveled. In fact, it’s been the best-selling truck in its class for a decade and a half. In particular, the TRD models make the Tacoma something to talk about year after year. And 2020 sees some notable upgrades that are sure to impress those who are in the market for a midsize pickup truck. To help you determine which truck will suit your needs, let’s discuss the new features and break down the three Tacoma models in the TRD lineup—the TRD Sport, TRD Off-Road, and TRD Pro: NEW FEATURES Toyota has gone to great lengths to make their vehicles safer. The Toyota Safety Sense P safety package comes on all 2020 Tacoma models. This includes High-Speed Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, Lane Departure Alert, Automatic High Beams, and Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection. There are also two cabs available across all Tacoma grades: an extended cab (Access Cab) and a four-door cab (Double Cab). All models are now compatible with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Amazon Alexa. Each model above the SR grade, which includes all TRD models, comes with an eight-inch touchscreen for the infotainment system. The TRD Tacomas receive perhaps the most extensive upgrades for 2020. The TRD Sport gets a Panoramic View Monitor, LED fog lamps, chrome insert tail lights, passenger Smart Key, and 17-inch wheels. TRD Sport buyers who opt for the V6 engine will also get a 10-way power-adjustable driver’s seat, and LED/DRL headlamps are available as well. Moreover, Toyota’s specially-tuned shocks come standard on the TRD Sport. Step up to the TRD Off-Road, and you will get all of the features mentioned above with Bilstein tuned shocks in place of the Toyota shocks. And if you go with the Double Cab configuration, you will receive the Multi-Terrain Monitor, which gives you a view of the wheels and surrounding areas. Not surprisingly, the 2020 Tacoma TRD Pro is the cream of the crop when it comes to taking adventures on rough terrain. Along with all of the off-road features of the TRD Off-Road model, the TRD Pro includes Rigid Industries LED fog lights, sequential LED/DRL headlamps, bold black-insert tail lights, and blacked-out 16-inch wheels. The new wheels are more than four pounds lighter than the ones on the 2019 models, and the suspension on the 2020 TRD Pro has been modified to complement the lighter wheels. Also new on the 2020 Tacoma TRD Pro are two color options: Magnetic Gray and Army Green, the latter of which is exclusive to the TRD Pro grade. Super White and Midnight Black Metallic are also available, bringing the color options to four. Furthermore, Panoramic View Monitor and Multi-Terrain Monitor are standard for the TRD Pro, as are a JBL Premium Audio System and a 10-way power-adjustable driver seat. 2020 TOYOTA TRD SPORT Now that you’ve seen some of the new stuff offered on all of the 2020 Toyota Tacoma TRD models, let’s take a more detailed look at the TRD Sport, which is consistently one of the best-selling pickup trucks in the country. Unless you’re seeking off-road adventures, the 2020 Tacoma TRD Sport offers all the performance you could ask for. Coming standard are a sport-tuned suspension, rear-wheel-drive, and 2.7-liter DOHC four-cylinder engine. The four-cylinder is good for 160 horsepower and 180 pound-feet of torque. Most buyers go for the optional 3.5-liter V6 engine that produces 278 hp and 265 lb-ft of torque. The TRD Sport is available with either a six-speed automatic or six-speed manual transmission, and it can tow a maximum of 6,800 pounds. And buyers can also opt for a 4WDemand part-time four-wheel-drive system. The interior of the 2020 TRD Sport seats up to four passengers. Though it may not include some of the luxuries offered in higher grades, the cabin of the TRD Sport makes for a comfortable ride while staying true to its rugged, sporty styling and materials that set it apart from other trucks on the market. And when it comes to legroom, there’s plenty to go around in both the front and back seats. As far as the exterior goes, the 2020 Tacoma TRD Sport comes with an all-new grille, as well as 17-inch wheels and more chrome inserts throughout the entire body. Also, an aggressive hood scoop comes standard. Buyers who are looking for a midsize pickup that looks aggressive and sporty won’t be disappointed. The Toyota Tacoma TRD Sport also comes with impressive technology features. Along with the eight-inch touchscreen, buyers get the Toyota Smart Key with Push Button Start, Toyota Entune 3.0 Premium Audio with Dynamic Navigation, and a Qi charging system for wireless devices. Starting at $32,745, the 2020 Tacoma TRD Sport is considered by many critics to give Tacoma drivers the most bang for their buck. 2020 TOYOTA TRD OFF-ROAD Going a step up to the TRD Off-Road grade is likely a good move for drivers who have a taste for the dirt and hills. The 2020 Tacoma TRD Off-Road comes standard with the 3.5-liter V6 engine (278 hp and 265 lb-ft), as well as the automatic six-speed transmission, which performs efficiently and smoothly. This makes for easy passing on the highway as well as heightened performance on rough terrain. Of course, you can opt for the manual transmission, which many serious off-roaders prefer. Also standard on the TRD Off-Road is the part-time four-wheel-drive system, a specially-tuned suspension, Bilstein shocks, and 16-inch wheels. A locking rear differential adds grip when the terrain gets challenging, and a hill-start assist feature helps prevent the truck from rolling backward on steep inclines. Another impressive feature is Toyota’s Crawl Control; similar to cruise control, this feature allows you to program five different speeds so that you can keep the truck moving slowly and steadily around obstacles without having to worry about the pedals. Despite its stellar off-road performance, the TRD Off-Road offers a decent ride on pavement, with secure handling and body control. Like the TRD Sport, the 2020 Tacoma TRD Off-Road’s interior is sturdy and rugged, and the cabin boasts well-made materials that will rival any competitor. However, the Off-Road grade makes it clear that you have stepped up a notch with a bright-red trim adorning the dashboard and soft plastic on the passenger side with an eye-catching crosshatch pattern. The TRD Off-Road seats up to five passengers, and there is ample storage space throughout the cabin. Along with sizable door pockets, the truck offers plenty of storage in its glove compartment and center console, which includes several little cubbies. 2020 TOYOTA TRD PRO When it comes to an aggressive, sleek appearance and powerful off-road performance, the 2020 Toyota TRD Pro is a midsize truck to dream about. Though it comes at a higher price, it offers the most for buyers. Here are some details to consider: Performance Like the Tacoma TRD Off-Road, the TRD Pro comes standard with the DOHC 24-valve Atkinson-capable 3.5-liter V6 engine. Zero to 60 mph measures at 7.3-8.1 seconds, while zero to 100 mph comes in at 21.22-22.6 seconds. The TRD Pro also comes with 16-inch wheels, Fox 2.5-inch-diameter internal bypass shocks, progressive-rate leaf springs, a TRD exhaust system, skid plates, a two-speed transfer case, and a signature snorkel that allows for better airflow to the engine when navigating deep water. Every aspect of the 2020 Tacoma TRD Pro was designed with the trails in mind. And it shows. The Tacoma TRD Pro’s 35-degree approach angle and 9.4 inches of ground clearance outdo competitors like the Ford Ranger and Chevrolet Colorado, and vertical slopes are tackled with minimal effort. Furthermore, the six-speed automatic transmission is surprisingly responsive and smooth on the trail. Interior In the cabin, the TRD Pro comfortably accommodates taller drivers despite the high cabin floor that gives the truck its impressive ground clearance. Also, a 10-way power-adjustable driver’s seat allows you to adjust the seat height until it suits you perfectly. And the Tacoma TRD Pro boasts uber-comfortable leather seats with attractive stitching and “TRD” emblems. You will also get a moonroof standard. Exterior For its outer appearance, the 2020 Tacoma TRD Pro offers even more aggressiveness than its other TRD siblings. It’s distinctive exterior leaves no room for mistaking it as any other truck. This is accomplished with a large grill, flared fenders, and an upward kick in the rear window, among other features. In place of the Toyota logo is a vintage “TOYOTA” badge in the middle of the grille, and blacked-out trim, wheels, and rear-seat windows make for a mean-looking midsize pickup. The extra-beefy tires add some oomph as well. The TRD Pro’s tailgate brings a touch of modernity with a big “TOYOTA” stamp on the bottom of the tailgate. This is balanced with a raised ride height and shorter bed, which resembles the proportions of more classic pickup trucks. And let’s not forget the slew of “TRD” logos boldly adorning the truck’s exterior. DECIDING WHICH TRD MODEL IS RIGHT FOR YOU When it comes to deciding between the 2020 Tacoma TRD models, it all depends on what you’re hoping to get out of your pickup truck. On the inside, all the TRD models are quite similar, though the TRD Pro offers some minor touches that set it apart. Nonetheless, performance and exterior appearance should be the deciding factors. The TRD Sport is simply a great-looking truck, it’s really fun to drive, and many buyers find that it offers the best all-around value. It does everything you would want a sporty pickup truck to do when on normal roads, especially when equipped with the 3.5-liter V6 engine. But if you plan to take the road less taken, the TRD Off-Road or TRD PRO are the better options. With the TRD Off-Road and TRD Pro, the wheel size drops to 16 inches, which lends itself to better performance on rough terrain. You will also get an off-road traction control system, several terrain modes, specially-tuned shocks, and a locking rear differential, among many other features designed to enhance your off-roading experience. The TRD Off-Road is truly the middle ground of the TRD grades. Despite its name, it provides a slightly more comfortable ride on pavement than the TRD Pro. On the trails, however, the TRD Pro outperforms the TRD Off-Road in every aspect. Both of these models look mean and sleek on the outside, but the TRD Pro is unmistakably more aggressive. Conclusion If you’re in the market for an attractive, functional, and reliable midsize pickup, any of the 2020 Toyota Tacoma TRD models will do the trick. Which model is right for you all comes down to your preferred features and the type of activity you will be using the truck for.
