I am new here, but I am here because I just purchased a 2021 TRD Tacoma Off-Road. I have owned Two Tundra's, but this is my first Tacoma. For starters, I am very impressed with the ride for a mid-sized truck and just its overall general performance. I have only had it for about three weeks. I live here in Tampa Bay, but I took a road trip to Asheville, NC where I will be moving to shortly. It rained all the way and at an average speed of 75 mph, the stability of the truck felt like a warm blanket. Once I got it into the mountains, that is where the truck excelled. It walked those mountains like they weren't even there. My only drawback with the truck is the gear shifting. It is horrible. It is clunky and the thing won't get out of its own way. Highway driving felt like work. The technology that comes with the vehicle is amazing and I am writing about adaptive cruise control. If it finds a reason to slow your speed down, getting you back to your original speed felt like a bumper car ride. Acceleration is not as smooth a process as it should be, but the gears are throwing you all over the place. On the drive back home, I did not bother to use the cruise control. When you step on the gas pedal, there seems to be no consistent control for smooth acceleration. It jumps from gear to gear trying to decide which gear it needs to be in. I have decided that I like the truck but would like more control over acceleration and not have to stand up on the gas pedal to get the thing to go. Any ideas?
