¹ With the Available tires: the maker’s figure for the configuration with that factory option.

A dash means the maker’s documents we have don’t give that number for that configuration, and a column with no number for any configuration of the year isn’t shown. “Door label” means the maker prints it only on each vehicle’s certification label, and “not published” that the maker doesn’t print it, or points elsewhere. “Up to” is a ceiling the maker prints over several configurations; a range is the maker’s own, printed across the grades of that configuration.

Estimate ±A dashed underline marks our estimate where the maker prints no figure: worked out from its other numbers, shown with its margin (±), and never used for a headline, comparison or ranking.

02 / What changed

New for 2000

The 2000 Tacoma against the 1999, the previous model year we hold. Only what Toyota’s documents show: nothing here is inferred.

No retail configuration added or dropped: the 17 sold in the 1999 are all here.
Ground clearance: 6.3–12.0 in (1999: 6.3–12.4 in).
Same range as the 1999: towing, payload, curb weight and length.
Length differs on 8 of 17 configurations sold in both years: +0.7 to +0.8 in.
Ground clearance differs on 1 of 17 configurations sold in both years: −0.2 in.

The 2000 documents

6 documents behind the 2000 Tacoma’s figures. The maker’s own come first; a third-party page fills in only a number the maker doesn’t publish, and wears its own mark.

Documents last checked Oct 9, 2026. How we read them and what the marks mean: how we source the numbers. A figure doesn’t match its document? Report a wrong number.

These are Toyota’s published figures for the models it describes, not a weighbridge or a tape measure; your own vehicle’s options change them. Found a figure that doesn’t match the document? Tell us.
