    You know your trims! Where does navigation fit into the trims and that crawl control? I noticed these options while looking around on the truck after I bought it yesterday.

    Is that the button I saw up next to the crawl knob?

    I didn't know. I was just set on a 4wd Tacoma. I would have preferred to get an '18 Tacoma base 4wd 2.7L with access cab. Not three trims up like this one, in fact, when I bought it yesterday I was under the impression it was the sport, turns out I even got more value than that. This truck is only a tool for me, to get my rural mail route done and stand up to my rugged roads and mud when it gets wet either when it rains or during snowmelt over the long haul. I didn't want to pay a lot more for all the crazy options that this truck has, but I opted for it because it was only 8k more than a Tacoma at another dealer that had the base truck 4wd 2.7L with access cab that was two years older and an hour away with almost identical miles than this '18. If that dealer had been more flexible on the price and made it at least $9,500 difference in price between this one, I would have gone with that truck but for less than 8k difference between them, I couldn't justify. The dealer I got this one was more flexible on the price bec he was desperate to get it off of a GM lot. It had been there since May/June they said!

    I believe navigation is available on all trims? (Dont quote me on that). However crawl control and MTS are reserved for the TRD Offroad 4X4 and TRD Pro trim levels.

    Something tells me you don't want crawl control on while delivering, 5 mph tops?

    Yes, that's the one, but the truck is very peculiar about the sequence when using 4 low and the locker. The owner's manual is your friend for those advanced features.
