One thing you would add...

The first mod I did was the USA-Spec ipod/mp3 interface, so that is probably it. It would be nice to have heated outside mirrors, heated seats ( for us old farts with aching backs) and power seats, power rear window. Nav system. Like some mentioned, these would add up on the purchase price.

 

3) Ventable or fully power operable access cab rear windows - Hello? A Ranger has these! WTF!?

This one would be my number 2 for sure!

 

go buy a camry. all of ya.

 

backup sensor
nav system

Some good replies here. But hands down.... locking tailgate!
20-25k truck and some loser steals your tailgate. 500 deductible and guess what.... you are basically buying a new tailgate.
locking lugs come in second.

 

A real stereo would be nice with a 30K truck. Mine came with the JBL and it was the first thing I replaced. Heated mirrors (which are standard on my 20K Subie) would have been nice too.

 

power seats with memory...
mp3 port also

 

1. Heated mirrors or a cold weather package like on the tundras
2. Heated Seats
3. Power Moonroof
4. Power Seats
5. Power Rear Slider

 

That's a 10 minute and $36 fix. The power sliding glass and MP3 player are a pain in the ass and the slider is big bucks.

 

power rear window, 6-way power drivers seat

 

I agree, all those options are nice, and if i had them i wouldn't complain, but i bought a truck not a car. I can deal with lacking all those options as long as i have the functionality of a truck and reliability of a toyota

 

Those were dealer installed options on my Taco. I didn't think they mattered much. Is there really a problem with tailgate theft?

 

I fully agree with you ND.

 

Understood Alliance master but that wasn't the question.

It was what would you add if you could?

I got a truck and I love it and I love Toyota. BUT, I don't think it's a "truck" thing to ask for opening back windows and an MP3 option. What the hell does that have to do with it being a truck or not?

In other words, as long as it comes like a Flintstones mobile then it's a real "mans" truck?

C'mon with that macho bullshit.

 

Lmao

 

I had heard tell ( my wife said her friend said....) that there was a problem with tailgate theft. I dunno. I've thought of taking the tailgate off when not actually hauling a load of something. Not sure how the change in airflow would affect mileage, good or bad. But does anyone else have a more reliable take on whether or not this is really a problem or not?

 

I have read in the past, maybe in a mythbusters article that the tailgate should stay up.

Here is a site I found the explains the physics (sort of)...

While not factory defiantly not bad either http://www.muthco.com/products/kits/220-0269.htm

 

Thanks for the link. Yeah, sort of. I suspect that that bubble of air depends on the airflow speed, but I can see the rationale.
