I love two-seater, RWD convertibles and own a 2004 Mazdaspeed Miata for pavement fun and a lifted 2001 Miata for pre-running. I race air-cooled Volkswagens in desert races like the Mint 400 and the Baja 1000. I have won the Rebelle Rally, seven-day navigational challenge, twice and I am the only driver to compete in an EV, the Rivian R1T.

Also on hand is Toyota Safety Sense-P, which includes precollision braking with pedestrian detection, high-speed adaptive cruise control (meaning it only works above 25 mph), lane-departure alert and automatic high-beam headlights.

Out back the Tacoma gets a few tweaks to the tail lamps.

But under the hood is the same old available 3.5-liter V6 pushing out 278 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque, though a smaller 2.7-liter is standard.
