Important: Frontal crash test ratings can be compared only among vehicles of similar weight.
Test details:
The Toyota Tacoma was redesigned for the 2005 model year. Two tests of the Tacoma were conducted, one by the Institute of a 2wd Access Cab and the other by Toyota of a 2wd Double Cab as part of frontal crash test verification. The overall rating of Good is based on review of both tests, which independently result in overall ratings of Good. The ratings and vehicle specifications based on Toyota's test are shown below because the 2wd Double Cab is similar to the crew cab configuration of other pickups tested more recently.
Restraints/dummy kinematics — Dummy movement was well controlled in both tests. During rebound in the Institute's test, the dummy's head hit the roof rail.
Injury measures — In each test, measures taken from the neck, chest, and both legs indicate low risk of injuries to these body regions in a crash of this severity. In the test conducted by Toyota, measures taken from the dummy's head also indicate low risk of head injuries. (In the Institute's test, a high head acceleration occurred when the dummy's head hit the steering wheel through the airbag, indicating that head injuries would be possible.) Head acceleration from the roof rail hit in the Institute's test was low.
tacomas are twice the truck a ranger is!my 02 taco is still worth 16k and no one sells them because they are such good trucks. stick with your plastic ranger "edge" my truck eats yours for breakfast

By jtotheace1 [Affiliate User] 1202140412 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removeyes, its VERY dangerous for passengers who are sitting in the bed.
By VSeun [Affiliate User] 1201117036 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveThe newest Toyota trucks are underrated. I bought an '07 4-door Tacoma (Pre-Runner) and it's fantastic. I had looked at Colorados for months prior. Still for Chevys though.
Tacoma has several recent safety feature installations in the front portion, alone. There's nearly a foot between the front bumper and the radiator (to avoid damage there); and there are metal hooks beside the hood hinges that prevent the hood from intruding the windshield on frontal impact. :D
Agreed with immediate above.

By cabuco2006 [Affiliate User] 1199174978 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveYeah they are but not to crumple on the humans in them and crush them. The ford f150 2005 truck was a joke. Just go watch it and then watch the chevrolet, dodge, toyota. No comparison. If I had a ford truck I'd sell it fast as possible because they clearly don't care about safety.

By awaugs [Affiliate User] 1198585965 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveWhat is it with people who compare TOTALLY different trucks? I notice a lot of ford-lovers bashing tacomas like idiots. I love ford too but damn, man, you're taking it too far, you're soiling ford's name with your stupidity. I mean really, tacoma's a mid size petrol, the 7.3's a 1 ton diesel. Get you S**t straight, asshole. Your foolish pride stinks and it will remain in my memory every time I see a powerstroke.

By PWRSMOKE [Affiliate User] 1196852199 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveI just watched a colorado crash test and windshield never broke in it either so maybe it's not so impressive. I also watched a F-150 and it folded up like a pop can being stepped on.
By matt78tv [Affiliate User] 1196247804 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveHey, did you guys notice the windshield didn't even break. I've always been a GM man but the more I read about the tacoma I'm leaning that way. I have a 97 S-10 that I bought new and have never done anything to so it will be hard to buy a toyota but this is impressive. Anyone own a new tacoma who has had a colorado to tell me your impressions?

By suicidehummer [Affiliate User] 1193844326 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveWell if you don't mind living in a box...
By suicidehummer [Affiliate User] 1193844229 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removeto answer your question, a 22r-e is a 2.4 liter I4 fuel-injected gasoline engine developed by toyota. and to be blunt, it kicks ass. these engines are known best for their longevity. lets put it this way: i look forward to giving my toyota to my future grandchildren. buying american products simply because i am american is an appeal to loyalty. that is not proper justification for buying an american car.
