i had this same issue when i got my first 2014 tacoma.
i drive a WRX and can go from break to gas fast and hard. So that said the Tacoma i had to learn to back the seat up and plan easy breaking. I also up graded to Hawk pads and Bramo rotors. Also Bilstein struts and shocks with BF Goodrich KO2 Tires. now all that said the truck feels more planted on the ground and my stopping distance is shortened without the jolt you get when you hit the brakes hard.
Hopefully this helps anybody out there.
just understand that when you buy a truck from a dealer they don’t put the best parts on it for obvious reasons of cost and to make majority of the public happy.
