The emergence of the new 2016 Toyota Tacoma has been long-awaited by truck fans everywhere.  Throughout its history, the Tacoma is largely known for its rugged toughness, utilitarian nature, and classic Toyota reliability.  However, despite its history of success and popularity, the outgoing second generation Tacoma had begun to become long in the tooth.  Aside from a few aesthetic alterations here and there, the last-gen Toyota Tacoma remained largely unchanged throughout its ten year run starting in 2005.  With an astounding 75% share of the mid-sized truck market, the word on the street was that Toyota had grown somewhat complacent.  However, the 2016 Toyota Tacoma – the first of a new, third generation – offers many new improvements upon Toyota’s award-winning formula.

What’s New for the 2016 Toyota Tacoma?

For starters, a brand new 3.5-liter V-6 with 278 HP and 265 lb-ft replaces the outgoing, outdated V-6 (the base level 2.7L I-4 engine remains the same).  Aside from the improved power, torque, and fuel economy (est. 19/24/21 mpg), the new V-6 Tacoma also will be the first Toyota truck to use an Atkinson-cycle engine.  Additionally, the engine’s computer can also shift between direct and port fuel injection.  All new 6-speed automatic and manual transmissions can be mated to the new V-6, both of which are viewed as huge improvements to the outgoing units.  The frame and suspension have also been highly upgraded, and the interior features a quieter cabin, a useful hand lever e-brake, and a new central control center.  There’s even a GoPro camera mount that comes standard near the rearview mirror.  It’s perfect for filming your off-roading adventures, which brings us to our next point…

Roads?  Where We’re Going, We Don’t Need Roads

A large majority of Toyota Tacoma fans appreciate the truck for its rugged nature and its ability to handle whatever off-road obstacles are thrown at it.  The new 2016 Toyota Tacoma is no exception to the rule, with Toyota claiming that it can conquer just about any terrain.  The TRD Off-Road trim offers a new multi-terrain selector system, allowing the driver to inform the vehicle of what type of environment they will be encountering.  This system allows for instant changes in transmission mapping, throttle response, gear selection, and traction control levels to specifically match the current landscape, whether that be mud, snow, sand, or rocks.   Additionally, the Tacoma also features Toyota’s exclusive “crawl control” system, which essentially enables the vehicle to handle throttle and braking control, allowing the driver to concentrate solely on steering in more demanding situations.

With the new 2016 Toyota Tacoma, drivers can hope to harness some of Toyota’s legendary off-road racing heritage as they tackle their own sand dunes and rock canyons, much like famed off-road racer BJ “Ballistic” Baldwin.  Recently announced as the driver of the new Tundra TRD Pro Baja truck for the upcoming 2016 SCORE International season, the three-time SCORE International champion hopes to further cement his and Toyota’s legacies.  With the release of new pedestrian and racing versions of its trucks, Toyota is certainly hoping to flex its off-roading muscles this year in 2016.

Protecting Against the Off-Road Onslaught

With all of the off-road adventures guaranteed to come your way while driving the 2016 Toyota Tacoma, we recommend looking into some proper protection from any and all “off-road onslaught.”  Husky Liners – one of the leading manufacturers in floor liners, mudguards, and other forms of “vehicle armor” – has recently released a line of mud guards for the new 2016 Toyota Tacoma.  Husky Liner mud guards are custom molded and tailor-fit to match the 2016 Tacoma’s fenders perfectly, offering a sleek style that looks like a factory OEM addition.  The mud guards are made from durable, impact resistant, all-weather thermoplastic that is guaranteed to protect your Tacoma from any kind of debris Mother Nature kicks up at it.  They are even built with maximum width for full tire coverage – there’s no way any rocks are getting past these bad boys.  The exclusive “Husky Shield Film” that comes with the mud guards makes them not only easy to install, but also offers an extra invisible protective layer between the mud guard and your vehicle’s paint.  As we all know, the faster it takes to install the mud guards, the quicker you can be out off-roading in your new Tacoma – it’s a win-win for both you and your truck.  To top it all off, all Husky Liner products come with a hassle-free, lifetime guarantee.  It really doesn’t get much better than that.

You love your truck and do everything you can to make sure it’s taken care of. Regular maintenance? Of course, you never miss it. Needs new tires? No problem. But what about your truck’s interior? What do you do to protect it from mud, dirt, sand that you and your passengers track in after getting outside and enjoying all of the adventures your truck takes you on? That’s where Husky Liners floor mats come in and why the STILLEN team just spent the morning being trained on all they have to offer. We want to make sure we can help you choose the right supercharger for your truck, but also make sure we are equally as knowledgeable about the selection of floor mats we offer.

Team STILLEN Learning About the Husky Liners Product Line

Why Husky Liners?

Since 1988, Husky Liners have been designing and manufacturing the best floor liners for trucks and SUVs available on the market. Here are a few reasons why we like Husky Liners:

  • Form fitting – Each custom fit floor mat features a form-fit edge, which blocks spills from damaging your door sill and carpet.
  • Stays in place – Designed with hundreds of nibs, the Husky Liners team can pretty much guarantee that floor mat will not be shifting and moving around under your feet throughout your truck or SUV’s interior.
  • Lifetime guarantee – Husky Liners is so confident in the quality and durability of their floor mats that they offer a manufacturer’s limited lifetime warranty on their floor liners.
  • Made in the USA – STILLEN is proud to support other manufacturers, like Husky Liners, that design, develop and manufacture there products in the USA.

Floor Mats

Husky Liners X-Act Contour Floor Liner

Husky Liners offers three models of floor liners for you to choose from – Husky Liners Classic Style, Heavy Duty and X-Act Contour floor mats. All three lines are form fitting, vehicle specific designs with patented nibs to help keep the mat in place. They all also come with Husky Liners industry leading lifetime warranty and are all made in the USA.

The biggest difference between the three lines is the material they are made out of. The X-Act Contour floor mats are made from a flexible rubberized material with a soft comfortable feel. Comparatively, the Classic Style and Heavy Duty lines are made from a more rigid, rubber material. Both are equally durable and long lasting. However, the customer favorite seems to be the X-Act Contour floor liners.

Mud Guards, Cargo Liners & More

If you’re looking for total protection, you’re in luck! Husky Liners makes a wide range of products to help protect your vehicle for day-to-day wear and tear. In addition to their floor mats, Husky Liners also makes custom molded, maximum length mud guards, vehicle specific cargo liners, convenient gear boxes that fit under the seats of the trucks, protective paint shields and more.
