This is the result of years of people bashing Toyota for having “bland” styling. Their new CEO is on a mission to sportify the brand.

People don't bitch about Toyota's bland styling. They bitch about their bland driving. Styling doesn't do anything to make a vehicle fun to drive.

I just realized why everyone is putting their name in big letters on the grille. It's so you can tell what it is. There all starting to look alike. BAAAAADDD! Why does a pickup need to look like a semi tractor to be tough?

I think it actually looks pretty cool, especially with a lift and some bigger tires. I mean at least Toyota made a change for once lol. I wonder what their 2034 mid cycle refresh will look like? Twin turbo v6 is intriguing too and how it will compare to Ford’s.

I'm curious if they will port some of that design down to the Taco. You will have the hard-core folks sticking with them...but it may alienate some?

If that lower bumper area under the grill was white I think it would look pretty decent. The black section under that makes it look like one giant grill. Honestly though this is much nicer looking than Chevy lol.

And for those hating on big grills... brace yourself for the 2022 ranger if they end up changing it this year. All trucks are getting these monster ugly grills now. It’s a trend.

I Feel like you (and others that say this) are just spewing back out what you’ve heard on the interweb that “Toyota’s are boring,”. Explain what exactly what you mean by this? Haven’t you heard how fun it is to “drive a slow car fast” etc. I mean really, Toyota has similarly powered 4s 6s and 8s, for the most part, as any other manufacturer. Fun is where you find it. If you are sitting at home bored, get off your ass and go find some fun to have. To me “Toyotas are bland” or whatever is just typical Internet bullshit. Any car can be exciting. Are Toyota owners bland?..well that might be another discussion..
