    Yeah I’m aware, but Toyota could do what they seem to be very good at and put a blank there. Or they could make it to where the tailgate will open with a push of a button similar to most other new trucks.

    I don’t think my 2022’s key rattles yet, but in my 2019 I would leave the key in the drink holder and it would rattle like crazy.

    I disagree. There doesn’t seem to be anything on this Corolla my 2022 doesn’t have. It has pretty much the same technology and styling wise it’s similar. It does have standard led lights though.

    Off topic, but that segment is actually competitive and Toyota can't be as lazy as they are with Tacomas. You'll find plenty of other things that Corollas have but Tacomas don't.

    Corollas also have had LED headlights standard since 2014, that just became optional on Tacomas rather recently.

    Ever been to middle class homes in third world countries? lol

    They open the gate and you drive your car into your living room / dinning room/ game room. It’s beautiful man!!!

    They will be working on the brakes while cooking dinner in the kitchen .

    Almost like the Florida guys who park their cars inside the living room when the hurricanes are coming. :D

    I like taking breaks when cooking dinner, especially when grilling. That is an opportunity to down a brew.

    Toyota will not typically upgrade things like key fobs and whatnot until a major model change

    I put my meso key together yesterday. Somehow feels cheaper than stock. Plus the buttons don’t have the same feel, but I never use the buttons anyway. I like the look though - for now.

    It is rubbery, but I felt it looked better covering the plastic Fob. Does not slip out of my hand when I grab the Fob with the cover on.

    OK?

    Actually I just noticed the Tacoma fob does have one. It's a useful thing.... scare people away from the car. Scare animals out of the yard.
