Tacoma not on the "best used car" list - WTH??

According to a Consumer Reports study, Tacomas didn't make the best of the best used car list.

At least it didn't make the worst of the worst list.

That is interesting. I think it may be an oversight.

When I look at the ratings on the Consumer reports site (as a subscriber) the Tacoma report show a sea of a red (a good thing) and the Reliability Ratings page for Compact pickups has the Tacoma (4 cyl) as number one, followed by Nissan Frontier (V6) and Tacoma (V6).

Dang- like 3/4 of the "bad" list is GM vehicles. They ought to add the Silverado to the list though, mine was breaking something almost monthly toward the end (93k miles). Its someone else's problem now though
