2012 Toyota Tacoma Double Cab V6 4dr Double Cab 4WD 6.1 ft. SB (4.0L 6cyl 5A)
Oldie but Goodey.. Built for it's year
 I just purchased this beauty (been searching for a Tacoma for 3 1/2 weeks) and have read up alot on reviews, Pros/Cons.  This truck was built for it's year '12, of course fuel economy wasn't great back in the year but fuel at that time was cheap as well.  This style reminds  me of my time, when I was younger, so it brings back alot of memories.  It's not the High tech/push the button on warm seats/easy smooth turns, etc etc plz people it's a truck that will do the job when needed.  To save gas on long distance hwy (put the gear in 4-D drive, it will save you gas (around 22-24 mph).  In the city well that's different (can put you at 16-18, all depends on how you drive, right).  As for metal to the pedal, me personally it picked up quick and felt the power/jerk on this baby.  Long bed vs Short bed: long bed you get a better smoother ride when accelerating compare to the short bed. Long Bed you have a better balance and you can put more items in the back.  I'm an old school kind of guy and this truck fits the year it was built.. people these days want old school trucks to be like luxury and well, they should either sell it and get a more of there style truck.  I had the option to get a '17 or '16, but body style was different, remember (for those who knows) '12 was the beginning of a new body style change for Tacoma and it was also a change of technology as well.  So... it comes down to this: great truck, it has the power (long bed) I have the TDR sport and so far at 80k now.. i havent had any issues...
