    This website is the passion-project of a USMC veteran/mechanic, @Tyler. I created Tacoma3G.com to share my knowledge of this subject with others and to provide like-minded folks with a comfortable space to ask questions and create 'build threads' within our Tacoma Forums.

4X2 | 4 cylinder

The only downfall to me is resale value. I’ve had plenty of 2wds, since that is all I needed and 4 cylinders are still out there.

It comes down to what you need the truck for. Commuting, camping, etc.
 
I own a 2wd and I love it. Specially when I shock a lot of people when I go on curtain trails. I live in the desert. It's all about how you drive in the dirt and what kinda tires you have a suspension.

What kind of setup do you have on your 2WD? Tires, suspension, etc.. I have a 2018 Off Road 2WD and I am exploring upgrade options.
 
If you plan to do any off-roading other than fire access roads or light trail riding, definitely go 4x4. If you want a Tacoma to have a truck & transport stuff from Home Depot to your house, a 2x4 4cyl will do the job perfectly.

Almost everyone who buys a 2x4 and decides to go off-roading ends up regretting not getting a 4x4 so keep that in mind.

I use too have an Icon Stage 8 suspension with 4'' spindle with 285/75/17 Toyo R/Ts on my other truck I use to own.

For me the point of getting a new vehicle was it had to be 4x4. If I wanted a 2x4 4cyl then I'd have gotten a van.
