New Tacoma on Toyota.com

There's not a lot of info but the new Tacoma is on the Toyota website.
http://www.toyota.com

They rate the X-Runner 4.0L @ 240 horses and 275 lb.-ft. The regular Tacoma's 4.0 L is rated 245 horses and 282 lb.-ft.

Is there any reason for this difference?

Looks great to me....but I am loving the quality feel of my 03 Runner...definitely going to test-drive. Maybe it will take the place of my T and the Runner?!

I eagerly awaited the new 4th gen 4runners, and when I saw photos of it, said it was the ugliest thing I've seen. Toyota ruined a perfectly rugged looking 4runner. It so bubbly and round, it looks like a highlander.

Between that time and now, I bought one

Personally, I love the new Taco. A lot of the styling cues from the 4th gen 4runners carried over to the Taco, and it looks awesome!!!

I now need an excuse (and money) to buy one!!!

It looks like a new F150 and a Chevy Coloroado had a secret love affair and forgot to use protection. It may eventualy grow on me, but I don't like it now. Then again I didn't like the original Tacoma back in 95 either.
