3rd Generation Toyota Tacoma at Kalispell Toyota
In Northwest Montana’s sweeping landscapes, from Glacier National Park to Flathead Lake, a midsize truck must do more than endure: it must thrive. The 3rd-gen Toyota Tacoma (2016–2023) isn’t just built for the terrain; it resonates with it.

Enduring Strength, Tailored for the Valley

  • Power That Keeps Pace with Adventure
    The Tacoma offers a steadfast 2.7-L I-4 or a potent 3.5-L V6 (278 hp, 265 lb-ft). The V6, paired with Toyota’s direct injection, delivers the towing and torque needed for hauling gear to Whitefish trails or launching boats on Flathead Lake.
  • Off-Road Mindset, Montana-Made
    Opt for TRD Off-Road or TRD Pro trims—Equipped with Crawl Control, locking differentials, and FOX shocks—to conquer forest backroads, snow-packed passes, and rocky riverbanks.
  • Modern Comfort Meets Rugged Lines
    With sound-dampening upgrades, soft-touch materials, and refined infotainment, the Tacoma delivers surprising comfort amid its angular, muscular exterior—perfect for early-morning drives through Kalispell or tailgate prep at Blacktail Mountain.
  • Trim Options That Fit Your Lifestyle
    From the utilitarian SR to the luxurious Limited, or the specialized TRD Sport and Off-Road, there’s a Tacoma variant ready for life in the Flathead Valley.
