The 2024 Toyota Tacoma Trailhunter (US$62,900 starting in the US, CAD$82,950) is a brand new trim for the Tacoma lineup, and comes with the 326 horsepower, 465 lb ft hybrid i-FORCE MAX engine. With a focus on overlanding, the Trailhunter is equipped with forged monotube shocks from Old Man Emu, a disconnectable front stabilizer bar, 33 inch tires and an intake relocated to the passenger’s A-pillar. But how is it to drive? And how does it compete with its stiff competition in the mid-size truck category? Thomas is excited to find out! We hope you enjoy the episode. SUBSCRIBE!

  • "I'm Thomas, and where's James? I'll tell you: he's being held as collateral by Toyota while I drive more of their vehicles." 😆

    sometimes I swear these 'extra throttle house' videos are main channel quality...
  • @chris_ntah
    These guys could review a tandem bicycle and I’d watch it through 30 mins straight
  • @joncurlett
    "Thanks for wa-" 😂 Love the subtle (?) reminders that this is EXTRA Throttle House. Perfection is not allowed.
  • @dannypinyan3949
    I have to say this is gotta be one of the most honest reviews I have watched in a long while. Thank you, sir.
  • @JJacobs107
    The comment about underbody protection was fantastic, laughing out loud! 😂
  • @gabegonzales8618
    I remember “save the V8s” now it’s “save the 6 cylinders” 😭😭
  • @davidz47
    Old Man Emu is no joke - I own an FJ Cruiser and had OME suspension kit installed, the upgrade is amazing!
  • @jeaneche697
    Is James being held hostage by Toyota so that Thomas doesn't wreck the Tacomas?
  • @gregp.7148
    $80-90k (CAD) for a small (even big) p/u truck is insane. People should not forget that in Canada you pay an extra 12-13% in taxes (Alberta only GST of 5%). These should not cost more than $50k all in. Then on top of it you also pay $2,000-3,000 per year for gas. But it does look cool.
  • I appreciate the honesty of the review especially since you were at a Toyota event. The pricing on the new Tacoma lineup, not just these models, seems too high even in this world of crazy pricing. Glad Toyota offers more than one bed size.

    You guys make everyone else in this space look like children, you touch on all the key points, the camera work isn't just someone holding a camera to capture audio. You show what should or needs to be shown. There's some real thought and effort behind your videos and I appreciate it. Keep it up. Cheers.

    Thomas video editing: "So yeah, and thanks for wa..." Even if it wasn't planned, it was excellent!

    I’m a diehard Toyota fan and Toyota is all I know. However, going forward after seeing Toyota continuously butchering these iconic models with nonsensical designs and gimmicks I feel like I may consider trying some other brands going forward. The whole reason of me choosing Toyota over the others was because of their no nonsense, tried-and-true naturally aspirated platforms with minimal electronics. But now that Toyota is also began to caving in to the same design trends I think it’s time to switch cults. Thanks for your honest review. Much like you, if I were to spend close to $70K on a midsize tiny pickup I’d much rather go with Ford Ranger as well (cheaper, more powerful, V6 engine and probably better performing too). I doubt these hybrid 4 banger Toyotas are going to be as reliable as their predecessor anyway.

    This was a really good video. Seriously, nice compliment to your "main" body of work.
  • @IOSALive
    Extra Throttle House, I can't get enough of your content, so I subscribed!
  • @GhostRyderFPV
    The new Tacoma, without the Earth-mover chin spoiler, looks pretty good! The one you reviewed a few months back, with said goatee, not so much...
  • @Hobbies4Hire
    Great job on the video Thomas! Thanks for making it.
