    Well.... Have had my 13 Taco DCLB 4x4 about a week / 250 miles. LOVE IT ! :D

    So far I've only noticed a few--what I shall call--curiosities.

    Why is there no indicator lamp on the dash when one activates the DRL's? The little green light-symbol only shines when the headlamps are activated. Odd.

    Why doesn't the fog-lamp switch have an indicator (light) to show when they are in the ON position? I realize the switch is either "depressed" or "out". But a light would be nice.

    When using the Radio Mode button on the steering wheel it will only cycle through Bluetooth, AM, and FM "1" (have not tested with CD or USB). This requires that I use the touch-screen to get my next set of FM favorites (FM 2). Odd.

    Homelink, Satellite Radio, bed-side storage cubbies (the ones with no lid)--kiss 'em goodbye!

    And I have yet to ascertain, for certain, what the engine shut-off whine/moan is.... (info on another thread:

    And the Neon Orange substance on the exhaust tip bolt: Bright Indeed! ;)

    But wait--If that IS ALL I can nit-pick... WOW--what a great Truck!

    :yay:
