A Toyota Tacoma SR5 4x4

The Tacoma continues to dominate the mid-size sector with recent offerings on our forum including this 2018 TRD Pro, 2020 TRD Off Road, and a 2013 TRD Sport with a Super Pacific camper. This iconic truck is not the most powerful or luxurious but it provides fabled reliability, capability, and class-leading build quality. It’s a vehicle that you can trust to take you deep into the backcountry but crucially get you home again. Subsequently, it’s a favourite with our team with various models field tested on the Expedition Portal YouTube; including the 2022 TRD Pro, ATerra camper, and the 2011 Tacoma TX Pro. Today’s 2005 Toyota Tacoma SR5 4×4 Double Cab has covered 177,xxx miles and features a long list of premium modifications.
