#10 of 101 Photo of 2005 Tundra Crew Cab by dschmid Sep 12, 2002 (10:46 am)
The Detroit News has a photo of the 2005 Tundra Crew Cab due out in 2004. http://pc99.detnews.com/autosinsider/sneakpeek/index.hbs?myrec=45
#11 of 101 It will be a 2004 model by sbell4 Sep 12, 2002 (10:52 am)
more legroom then Dodge and Ford and the bed is longer and depper then the F150. The inside looked like the Sequoia.
#12 of 101 Future Tundra/Tacoma by docralpho Sep 24, 2002 (6:06 pm)
I saw a Tundra Step-side today; have been awaiting a viewing. The bed capacity appeared reduced a fair amount (inside dimension is narrowed), though it is a bit deeper than the "regular" Tundra. The taillights are large and nicely shaped. The vehicle looked fairly massive to me. Nice appearing truck; will wait to see a few more on the streets to get a better perspective. Next generation Tacomas--I understand these will be 2004 models, will be somewhat larger than the current version to compete with the Dakota and the new Colorado from Chevy. Engines are said to be larger than current ones, too. Likely will be same as the next-gen 4-Runner engines. A V6 of about 3.9 liter and maybe as much as 240-250 hp; and a V8 with less horsepower, but more torque for towing."Time will tell"- Toyota has not revealed much about the new Tacomas that I can find.
#13 of 101 Update--future Tacomas by docralpho Oct 18, 2002 (8:31 am)
Am posting again in hopes someone out there may know more about the next version of the Tacoma. I'm interested in the 2004 Tacoma Prerunner 4 door. I did see a new (2003)FourRunner and was quite impressed. It is my understanding that the Tacoma will be put together with some FourRunner components including engines. The FourRunner does have a 4.0l V6 or a V8 option. It is unclear to me whether or not these engines can run on regular unleaded gas; I hope so in the case of the Tacoma. The '03 FourRunner is larger than the older version and a nice size, I think. A larger Tacoma would be appreciated, and with 4 doors would obviate the need--in my case--for the larger Tundra. Anyone know more?
#14 of 101 Tacoma info by toyotaken Oct 29, 2002 (2:04 pm)
There is VERY limited information regarding the upcoming redesign of the Tacoma. This is not unusual for Toyota, however. One of the biggest discussions that is going on from my understanding is if they are going to have a I4 and V6 engine combination or just a V6 and V8 option. The little that I have heard is that it will be much bigger, about the size of the Dakota and will definately offer the 4.0L V6 that is due to come out in the 4Runner. It will offer at the very least suicide style doors on an extra-cab model and still offer a double cab model. There is a rumor out that they might possibly offer a hybrid version of the Tacoma sometime after the first year. As I get updates, I'll keep you informed.

Please do keep the forum informed of any info you have regarding the updated Tacoma--out in 2004, I think. Thanks!
#17 of 101 See ya! by vixter Dec 27, 2002 (3:38 pm)
Sorry about all your issues sflip, it may help to know that you are one of very few who are having problems like this. There are some things that you may want to clear up before posting again.  Why did your battery short out? Why is your manifold cracked at 37,000 miles if the manufacturer won't cover it under their powertrain warranty (5yr/60,000mile). Why did you have 1qt. too much oil in there for the first year knowing that the dipstick wasn't the right size? Did they replace the dipstick? Being it was Tundra's first year, I assume you've had it serviced only at a Toyota store, is this correct? Did you service it regularly?  Consumers Reports bases their published information on results from surveying people just like you!
#18 of 101 Tundra to get true 4-door crew cab in 2007! by dmmakoski Jan 05, 2003 (2:36 pm)
I just read in Petersons 4Wheel & off-road (FEB) on page 15 in "This just in..." That Toyota will introduce a true 4-door crew cab for the Tundra in 2007.   Can this be ture? This far off?
#19 of 101 4-door model by toyotaken Jan 05, 2003 (5:08 pm)
I don't have the actual launch date yet, but I have a source that has told me that the 4-door model of the Tundra has a prototype out at least. From what they've told me, take a sequoia from the back of the rear doors forward, extend the wheelbase 18", and give it a 6 foot box and you have your 4-door tundra. I'll keep you informed as I get more info.   Ken
