2004 Toyota Tacoma

 

Toyota's line of compact pickups loses a bed style for 2004. Nothing much had changed in this year's Toyota's highly-touted Tacoma compact pickup truck. The 2004 model basically revives everything that made it a standout last year except that it lost its optional flare-fender StepSide cargo box. Same with the 2003 model, 2004 Tacoma is available in two-door regular cabs, extended Xtracab type models, and crew-type Double Cabs with four conventional side doors and a 3-place rear bench seat.

 

Among the highlights for this year includes two forward-facing rear jump seats for the Xtracabs, a V6 and two 4-cyl engines offered in both manual and automatic transmissions. Likewise, three engines come available for 2004. The base model uses a 2.4-liter inline 4-cylinder engine. It puts out 142 horsepower at 5000 rpm and 160 lb-ft of torque at 4000 rpm. The other is a 2.7-liter model with 150 horsepower at 4800 rpm and 177 lb-ft of torque at 4000 rpm.

 

Then the leading engine for 2004 is a tough 3.4-liter V6. It gets up to 190 horsepower at 4800 rpm and 220 lb-ft of torque at 3600 rpm. Variety is one of the main concerns and selling points of the 2004 Toyota Tacoma hand in hand with ruggedness, reliability and versatility. Its available options provide wide choice for its customers along with guaranteed satisfaction.
