Not in yosemite, that's for sure.
I'm sure there are a lot of places to go in the area, but I'm not too familiar with the trails. The one trail I know of that's fun for stock trucks is the road to laurel lakes just south of mammoth. Here's a quick google search, even has a picture of a tacoma: http://www.gbr.death-valley.us/4x4/laurel.htm
The lake is above 10,000 feet so it's got golden trout. There are special fishing restrictions for that lake so look that up if you're going to fish. When you going?

Mammoth Offroad Trails
I was just in Mammoth a couple weeks ago and did the Laurel Lakes trail. It's pretty easy, even for a stock 4X4 and offers great scenery. You can find a write up on it from Expeditionswest.com. I believe that there are some other trails in Mammoth too; the visitor's center has maps of their locations. You can also find more information at mammothsecrets.com by cliking on the offroading link. Good luck and have a great time.
