    I totally agree with the OP on everything except for #7, the TRD Sport does have auto headlights. A few more items that bugs be that aren't listed are...

    12) Rear window defroster. Why isn't it there? My rear windows are fogged up like crazy during the rain...shucks!
    13) Side mirror plates easily moves when trying to de-ice it using ice scraper. Woke up this morning to heavy freezing rain/sleet/snow which created a sheen of ice on the side mirrors. Just beware when using a ice scraper, it will literally shift the mirrors from the adjusted spot. You'll have to re-adjust it again.

    But let's point out the cool features! I freakin' love the extended sun visors! It is genius! Who agrees?

    #4 - I really don't recommend.
    IF your truck ever gets stolen you are at fault and insurance will not cover any damage.
    THIS happened when my Jetta was stolen.

    From my understanding, the "valet key" OP is talking about only locks and unlocks the tailgate. It doesn't start the vehicle for those with push button start.

    Correct. There is no key hole for the ignition. This key is only used to unlock/lock the tailgate. It has no other use. I say Valet Key because its the same style as the valet/spare key you get with any other vehicle.
