Toyota Tacoma
The Tacoma is practically flying solo in the mid-size pickup category. Thanks to its size, it can get around using either a 159-hp 2.7L four-cylinder or a 236-hp 4.0L V6. The former is paired with a five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic transmission. Add an extra gear to each for the V6. They come in either rear-wheel drive (four-cylinder) or 4x4 (four-cylinder and V6). Extended and double cabs are available.
