Best non Toyota feature I’ve seen

I just step on the tailgate and hop in when its open.

 

Ah, to be young and healthy......enjoy it and hope it lasts forever!

 

Yeah I would like to turn the clock back 30 years too.

 

I'd be happy if the at least put that bumper corner cutout step on our trucks. My old ass has a hard time getting into the bed nowadays.

 

I'm doing much better now. I'm itching to move back to Northern Ca some time in a year or two

 

Sweet! Here’s an early “welcome back”!

 

Yeah, like this, it’s my same aftermarket Fab Fours bumper but on a Tundra.

It’s a cool feature, I guess there wasn’t enough room for the cut out for the Tacoma.

What’s great is that you can still use it with the tailgate down.




Here’s a generic picture of the bumper I have, they could just put a step cut out where their logo is, would be perfect.

 

If I could just turn mine back to the one day I blew out my knee playing softball. That knee was pretty much trash after that.

 

Exactly.

 

You could probably modify the stock bumper end caps, but I don’t think the plastic holds much weight.

This was one of the main reasons I replaced it with a metal bumper. That and I basically tore the stock one off backing into shrubs (yes bushes) in the driveway.

 

Seriously! I ride my dirt bike right up my ramp and into the bed. Never damaged a tailgate on my 2nd gen or 3rd gen.

 

Yeah, even my 2002 4runner has it. I used to use it all the time.

 

People are insecure and need "real truck" to feel manlier when the ridgeline can do everything that like 90% of all of the members here use their tacomas for.

If I didn't actually take mine off road where I needed 4low and a rear locker, I would have highly thought about a ridgeline.

 

Yeah... it may be a gimmick, but it beats the hell out of any recent Toyota idea...

 

Please no, I think those step cutouts are hideous

 

I would guess most Truck buyers are not cross shopping a front wheel drive based minivan. I highly doubt it will ever sell in any substantial numbers as it is basically just an expensive Niche vehicle.

 

That makes no sense.

 

if you have limited cognitive capability, then perhaps

With a manual...I will take 2

 

I just use my tires/wheels to climb up and in
