5 reasons to buy the 2022 Toyota Tacoma
1. It's outstanding off-road
All pickup trucks are good for work, but the Tacoma stands out for play too. If you like to get off the beaten path, you'll love the TRD Off-Road or TRD Pro trims. Each trim comes with off-road-tuned suspension, an electronically locking rear diff, and active traction control that will help you get to even the most remote spots. Just be sure to opt for the four-wheel drive system, which is available on the TDR Off-Road and standard on the TRD Pro.
2. It can haul your toys (or work supplies)
Whether you want to hitch up your camper and head to the mountains or haul a load of gravel for a landscaping project, the 2022 Toyota Tacoma is up for the job. With the available 3.5L V6 engine and two-wheel drive, the Tacoma can tow up to an estimated 6,800 pounds when properly equipped.
3. Plenty of driver-assist features
If you want a little extra peace of mind on your next big adventure, the 2022 Toyota Tacoma can offer it. All 2022 Tacomas come with a suite of driver-assist features.

4. Lots of options
The 2022 Toyota Tacoma offers plenty of configurations and options, allowing you to find the truck that's right for you.
