Many Texans find it incredibly difficult to resist the call of The Great Outdoors, and we certainly appreciate when a pickup truck is built to maximize our enjoyment of the many adventures around Arlington.
Outdoor enthusiasts love trucks because they’re so darn adaptable, and the 2024 Tacoma is going to shock with its capabilities.
Read on about how the Tacoma is one of the best trucks for outdoor adventures thanks to its off-road abilities, towing capacity, famed reliability, and its affordable price range.
Strengths of Tacoma’s Off-Road Capabilities
If you’re dedicated to fully enjoying the outdoors, you need a vehicle built to handle the demands of some serious off roading near Grand Prairie, and the Tacoma is the midsize Toyota truck for you. Many Tacoma trucks are equipped with four-wheel drive (don’t worry, we can get you a 4×2 if you’d like) which grant immediate safe access to off-road trails and paths.
Every Tacoma owner thinks asphalt is overrated, and this Toyota truck is also available with these features to prepare you for rugged rocky desert, massive dunes, and anywhere else your adventures take you:
- Electronically Locking Rear Differential that distributes power evenly to maximize traction and push you up and over obstacles
- A Steel Rear Bumper with Recovery Hooks that was developed with the help of the overlanding and off-road enthusiasts at ARB
- Stabilizer Disconnect Mechanism (SDM) which increases suspension articulation to enable even greater off-road domination
Toyota Racing Development (TRD) carries on their off-road heritage with the reimagined Tacoma TRD Pro. This off-road icon features a purpose-tuned FOX suspension, segment first IsoDynamic Performance seats, and 33-inch rugged terrain tires which help you enjoy your adventures longer and harder than ever before.
Tacoma shoppers near Hurst and Irvin should also consider the Trailhunter trim level of this Toyota truck if they’re eager for overlanding expeditions. This grade of the 2024 Tacoma works incredibly well for camping and hiking, but was designed and built to be the ultimate overlanding machine thanks to specific new equipment like:
- An Old Man Emu suspension equipped with 2.5-inch forged monotube shocks that feature external remote reservoirs as well as a high-performance combination of capability and stability to ensure your overlanding trip is fully enjoyed
- 33-inch Goodyear Territory R/T tires mounted to beautiful bronze 18-inch wheels
- An onboard air compressor in the bed will get the PSI in those Goodyear tires back up to spec in moments
Benefits of Tacoma Towing Capacity
The Tacoma is a midsize Toyota pickup truck that offers plenty of towing and hauling capacity to ensure your outdoor adventures go off “without a hitch!”

The 2024 Tacoma is rated to tow a maximum of 6,500 pounds when properly equipped, and that gives you plenty of options when it comes to pulling fun and adventurous equipment around.
Many pop-up campers weigh less than 3,000 pounds and the Tacoma will happily tow one from Fort Worth to wherever your family is planning to camp. If you prefer a bigger camper, or just one with insulated walls, there are plenty of small camper trailer options that weigh far less than the maximum 6,500-pound towing capacity of the 2024 Toyota Tacoma, making it an ideal setup for a family getaway.
Do you prefer a little water involved with your adventures? The Tacoma can readily tow two full size jet skis and their trailer, but you should also be quite safe and comfortable towing most bass boats to your next tournament or family fishing trip.
Ski and wakeboard boats can also be safely towed by a 2024 Tacoma, but their weights vary quite a bit. Make sure to verify your truck’s max tow rating and read your owner’s guide for complete towing details on the Tacoma.
