    My significant other is the one reason I wanted heated seats and dual climate. Currently on vacation without those things and realizing how quickly we've become spoiled.

    I will say dual climate is great. Im the type of guy that wears shorts all year long, my wife like most women, is always cold.

    Yeah, unfortunately these days they just aren't necessary. Especially with aerodynamics and MPG vs air conditioning. Not to mention they were an easy way for someone to get into the vehicle, especially in a big city.

    So. Many. Stickers.

    going to disagree. With the bronco coming out and Jeeps getting more aggressive with their offerings, there's no reason for Toyota to make the Tacoma any softer. If anything it's more capable now than it was in the previous generation. Although I do still wish they would offer a stripper truck with manual windows and a locker and four-wheel drive and not much else.

    Sorry, that was lost on me. I know plenty of people who would love to see vent windows return.

    As long as Toyota knows that the aftermarket businesses are out there to support us offroader type, they will continue to cater the ho hum pickup to the masses that primarily never leave the pavement, because it sells. And if they are selling like they are, then they don't give a hoot what Jeep and Ford are doing for the off road community. Those just fill a niche market.

    I would LOVE a heated steering wheel in my truck, but I have Raynauds which causes my hands to be painful ice cubes at any temp below 50 degrees.

    Yeah it pretty much sucks, I would gladly pay extra for that as a stand alone feature.
