    I would like to have this info as well. I have the same unit as you do and so far no one seems to know anything.

    My owners manual shows a 2013 touch screen non entune model with "Car" info such as trip info, miles till empty, miles traveled, avg MPG, time, distance and ?? When I ask at the dealership they don't know, :confused:

    I haven't seen a Tacoma with this unit in it yet so I don't know where our manual gets the model from.

    This feature is not available on the Tacoma. There's no "car" button on the audio unit.

    The audio owner's manual that came with the Tacoma is a generic version, used for all of Toyota's vehicles.

    ^^^ thats what i was thinking, im thinking there has to be a way to view the info we just need to figure it out. maybe a call will tell us but if i had to guess they would say it isnt possible that way we would have to buy the entune BS

    I think those features are for the prius, so yeah just the generic manual for all vehicles.

    it was a $1500-$2000 option at the dealer so not sure how much to just buy one, I'm still thinking there should be away to get the info on the regular touch screen i just need to look into it more

    So all 13 models and above have the touchscreen standard, whether or not it's JBL/entune equipped? Interesting. What sort of features does this head unit have over the regular (black and white digital) head unit?

    Here is the email reply from Toyota



    We apologize; the Display Audio with Navigation and Entune option is only available as a factory-installed option at the time of manufacturing. A dealership-installation kit is not available.

    I have a 2013 Tacoma Limited with Entune and it still does not have the vehicle information. The special manual for the Entune only clearly shows a tab on tho touch screen to access this info. When you go to the screen on the vehicle that tab is not present. The dealership is looking into it as I have only had the truck for 4 days. They say according to the manual it should be there . They are baffled.

    Not sure exactly, but I can say that...
    Both bluetooth and wired options (via the USB port) both show my Pandora and Music from my iPhone 5 with Artist, Album and Track information fully. I dont see cutting off short or lack of data. That is a bug plus.

    Then the BT phone calls shows the persons name and the red/green buttons to answer, hang up, etc.

    I think for stock headunit it is very capable. However, I really want to phase it out and I've only had my truck 5 weeks. The audio quality is subpar.

    all you need is an amp to improve the sound...the stock
    headunit is underpowered, but the sound is actually good. just no power

    of course if you want better than that, new system. but pretty good results
    can be had by adding an 'amp only' to the stock head and speakers
