Shop 4WD Toyota Tacoma Trucks in Ames, IA
Four-wheel drive is the configuration most Tacoma buyers in central Iowa end up wanting, and this page collects the 4WD trucks we have across both new and used stock. The reason is not really winter, though winter helps make the case. It is that the useful things a mid-size truck does here, pulling a trailer off a soft field entrance, backing a boat down an unpaved ramp at Ada Hayden, getting up a rutted approach in March, all happen on surfaces where two-wheel drive runs out of traction well before the truck runs out of power.
The Tacoma is sold in both rear-wheel drive and four-wheel drive, so it is worth being deliberate rather than assuming. Rear-drive trucks are lighter, often carry a slightly higher payload rating, and make sense if your miles are overwhelmingly paved. Four-wheel drive is the right default if you tow off anything other than concrete, drive gravel county roads regularly, or simply do not want to think about the second week of January.
Because this page spans new and used, it is a good place to compare a new 4WD SR5 against a low-mileage used truck at a similar payment. Used mid-size trucks hold their value stubbornly well, which narrows that gap more than people expect, and it sometimes makes a better-equipped used truck the smarter buy. We are happy to put the two side by side rather than steering you toward one.

Then get pre-approved once and use the payment calculator to compare a new 4x4 against a low-mileage used one at the same monthly number.

Buying a Tacoma 4WD at Wilson Toyota of Ames: Common Questions
Does the Toyota Tacoma come in four-wheel drive?
Yes. The Tacoma is offered in both rear-wheel drive and four-wheel drive across most of the trim range, and four-wheel drive is the more common configuration on our lot because it is what buyers here ask for.
Do I actually need 4WD in central Iowa?
On plowed pavement, no. Where it earns its money is traction on loose or soft ground: pulling a trailer out of a field entrance, an unpaved boat ramp, gravel roads after rain, and unplowed streets early in a storm. If your driving is almost entirely paved and you rarely tow off concrete, rear-wheel drive is a reasonable and slightly more efficient choice.
Can I trade in my current 4x4?
Yes, and it is likely the most in-demand thing on our used lot. Start with an online trade estimate before you shop, because a strong trade number often changes which side of the lot makes sense. Any make or model.
Do I need separate financing for a new versus a used 4WD Tacoma?
No. Complete the secure finance application once and we can quote both against it, which is the fastest way to compare a new 4x4 and a low-mileage used one at the same monthly payment. Certified Pre-Owned trucks also carry their own financing rates that often beat standard used-vehicle terms.
Can I drive a new and a used 4WD Tacoma the same visit?
Yes, and we would encourage it. Schedule a test drive and ask for one of each. Back to back is the only honest way to judge whether the newer truck or the better-equipped used one is worth more to you.
Can you find a specific 4WD Tacoma configuration?
Tell us what you are looking for with the trim, cab, bed and colour you want. Because drivetrain and equipment vary truck to truck, it is also worth calling 515-232-4081 to confirm the configuration on anything you have seen listed before you make the drive.
Drivetrain and equipment vary by vehicle; confirm the configuration on any specific truck before purchase. Towing capacity varies by configuration; never exceed the limits listed on your vehicle. Offers subject to change; see dealer for current program eligibility.
