Jeep Wrangler vs Toyota Tacoma
Serving Chattanooga, Ringgold, East Ridge, Hixson, TN
The 2016 Jeep Wrangler is a versatile road and trail capable SUV. It can match up against any SUV or truck on the market, including the 2016 Toyota Tacoma. People who are interested in these types of vehicles have a thirst for adventure and a need for a dependable vehicle that can take a licking and keep on ticking.
There are several different Wrangler configurations to choose from. There's the Sport and Sport S. The Limited Edition packages include Willy’s Wheeler, Back Country, 75th Anniversary Edition, Black Bear and Freedom Edition. You can also choose between the Sahara and Rubicon trim. The Toyota Tacoma has four: the SR5, Limited, TRD Sport and TRD Off-Road.
Awards and Accolades
The 2016 Jeep Wrangler has the benefit of belonging to a family of the most awarded SUV brand of all time. The Wrangler Unlimited just received the Kelly Blue Book 5 Year Cost To Own Award and Best Resale Value in its Class. That means it's built to last and owners are still raving about it. The Wrangler also won 4x4 of the Decade from Four Wheeler. The 2016 Tacoma has also gained some attention. It was a finalist for the Kelly Blue Book Best Buy Award and a Top 10 in Best Resale Value.
Off-road Ready
The 2016 Jeep Wrangler is a Trail Rated vehicle. The automakers at Jeep really put the Wrangler through its paces, testing it for every off-road scenario imaginable. The Trail Rated kit is optional on all models, standard on the Rubicon Hard Rock and Willys Wheeler trims. A front stabilizer bar and fuel tank skid plate are also standard on all models. With the addition of a standard 2,000 lb. towing capacity, the 2016 Wrangler is capable of nearly anything. That's hard to beat, but the 2016 Toyota Tacoma puts up a decent fight. Toyota offers a special trim, the TRD Off-Road, that's packed with its best towing and off-raid capabilities. Yet even the TRD Off-Road must be upgraded to the optional Class IV towing package to benefit from a beefed up 130-amp alternator and trailer sway control.
Safety Features
Both of these vehicles challenge you to push your limits. So that's why safety and stability are important features. The 2016 Jeep Wrangler has best in class safety. It adjusts airbag deployment to match the severity of the accident. It also has a host of electronically-assisted safety features such as Electronic Roll Mitigation, Electronic Stability Control, and Anti-Lock Braking for all four wheels. The 2016 Toyota Tacoma relies more on the standard safety package that comes with all Toyota vehicles. The Star Safety System is a comprehensive suite of features that includes Anti-Lock Brakes, Electronic Brake Force Distribution, and Vehicle Stability Control. Yet, blind spot monitoring and rear cross traffic alert systems are a premium option.
There aren't many vehicles that can match either the 2016 Jeep Wrangler or the 2016 Toyota Tacoma. They're both trail blazers, but every race must have a winner. The Tacoma is constantly evolving, but the 2016 Jeep Wrangler seems to already have this vehicle category figured out. Why don't you be the judge? Head on down to your local Jeep dealership and test drive a brand new 2016 Jeep Wrangler today.
