| 2007 | 4dr Crew Cab 5ft bed 236-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range |
The TRD Off-Road seats offer great comfort after 3+ hour long drives. see full Toyota Tacoma review |
| 2006 | 4dr Crew Cab 5ft bed 236-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range |
Great for kids and adults much like a sedan. Seats do not feel like a compramise like old jump seats. Wet/dry storage under them is great idea. Storge behind them and fold down hard top storge area is also handy. see full Toyota Tacoma review |

| 2004 | 4dr Hatch 173-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
A very strange relationship between steering wheel, pedals, and seat. A telescoping wheel would have greatly helped, but it was not offered. see full Toyota Matrix review |

It is really too small for adults for more than a couple of hours. No rear armrest either. Door panels were hard plastic. see full Toyota Matrix review |
