    yeah... JBL is only available in the Limited model here in Canada. It sucks because I'm sometimes a bit of an audio nut, but I hate chrome, and not a big fan of leather

    Exacky why I didn't get the limited too. I wish it was a stand alone option in Canada.
    I wish Toyota would allow some factory ordering on models.

    Would like drivers electronic adjustable seats with height adjustment.

    I receive text meassages. Truck Will read the to me.

    Would like a bit more adjustability of the steering wheel.

    Only had the truck for 4 days total. But overall very satisfied.

    I have not had any of the following problems others have stated including :

    QI wireless charging
    Phone syncing
    Air noise

    There is no perfect vehicle. I am amazed that my phone fuctionality and all music on it are available without hooking up a cord. Even more amazed I can wireless charge it while using it and never touch it while driving.

    So now it's an option?

    That was one of the first mods that I did to my '12. Pro EFX heated tow mirrors. Awesome!

    ... and it's filthy.

    How the fuck does that work? Do lightning bolts shoot out of the charge port and into the phone?

    It's magic. Toyota engineers put a spell on the electronic controls. Some mind control tactic that Japanese shogun used during the rebellion.

    <=====I'm with you.

    Tired of reading Taco owners complaining about the lack of luxury features in a pickup truck. One of two things have to happen to add their luxury options:

    1) in order to stay at the present price point, they dumb down/cheapen something else, usually the quality of the general mechanical structure of the vehicle. (ie, Metal part changed to plastic, or lower its "truck" capabilities.)

    2) raise the price again.

    From what I read as some the complaints on this forum. Half of the members sound like they would be happier with a Ridgeline.

    A lot of people have complained about the text feature. It works sometimes. Usually doesn't.

    Would be happy if the offered the V6 MT in the SR utility package, price it $1500 more than the 4 banger option.

    Every time I look at a 2016 I think that if the forward edge of the hood ran straight across the front of the truck in-line with the top of the headlights, and the hood itself sloped down to that point from windshield, it would look much more aggressive and balanced. It would have a sort of old school throwback vibe to it, and would make visibility really good as you could look down the nose of the truck.
