Here’s the ultimate tough compact truck.

After all, this 2014 Toyota Tacoma is the kind of versatile machine that has a nearly indestructible reputation. And when this fuel-injected 4×4 is also loaded with features and has four full doors, this really has it all.

This is a low-mileage modern pickup, and so the factory Silver Sky Metallic paint shows off the excellent body panels for a look that is straight, clean, and premium. Not only is the reputation of this truck tough, but it’s looks are quite intimidating, too. The hood has a hint of a power bulge, the fenders are flared wide, and the premium TRD package stance is nice and tall (the upgraded 17-inch Fuel wheels with large Toyo Open County tires also helps, too.) And this has all the versatility you want in a useful truck. That’s why you have a proper tow package and a full bedliner. In fact, if you take a look inside the bed, you’ll notice an inverter with proper electric plug – it’s the kind of thing that’s quite handy and only found on a loaded more modern pickup like this.

The interior is just as impressively clean as the exterior. The door panels, dash, cloth seats, and overall condition tells you this is a truck that has been treated with respect. This is loaded with the best features, including power windows, power locks, keyless entry/alarm, cup holders, and cold-blowing air conditioning. The radio is a modern AM/FM/CD touchscreen unit that’s your gateway to features like Bluetooth, satellite radio, and the backup camera. A modern vehicle also means the modern safety of dual airbags, side airbags, and ABS. The premium Double Cab setup means four full doors and adult-sized room in the rear. But no matter how many people are along for the ride, you’ll always be comfortable thanks to a high-back bucket seats, tilt steering column, and a center console with armrest.

Toyota’s 4.0-liter V6 is from a long line of robust powerplants, and this is the original motor for this low mileage truck. These are great all-around motors where the fuel-injection, multi-valves, and DOHC give you give you good acceleration around town. Plus, the big torque gets you through the rough terrain. And speaking of off-road, the two-speed transfer case gives you true go-anywhere 4×4 ability (the ultra-clean undercarriage makes us doubt it’s seen any rough duty.) But more than just good on the trail, a truck like this was built to be comfortable in any situation. Power steering, power brakes w/discs up front, cruise control, and a four-speed automatic transmission w/highway-friendly overdrive make this as comfortable as a commuter.
