Changes for 2010 Tacoma-Suggested

I went for a ride in my buddies Silverado yesterday and I must say that there are quite a few features/ amenities I wish Toyota would incorporate into their next generation Tacoma that even a LT Silverado has. Things are as follows:

• Moon Roof
• Heated Seats
• Automatic folding rear view mirros
• Rear Sliding window
• Some basic kind of electric rear/front window defroster

Any Other Suggestions??

 

I would like to see leather with heated seats as an option. They have this option in Canada and it would be nice to have it here. Also, factory beam projector headlamps ala 4 runner with factory HID's. Heated mirrors would also be nice to have. Ohh and they should offer more interior colors. I would like to see the black color cloth found in FJ cruisers be incorporated into the Tacoma lineup. Don't get me wrong, I love my sport seats, but ive never really been a fan of light gray interior on cars.

 

Yeah that black cloth(sport seat material) would look really good in a tacoma

 

how about a cargo light built into the 3rd brake light?

and +1 on the Automatic folding mirrors

 

+1

 

• Moon Roof - Don't care
• Heated Seats - Don't care
• Automatic folding rear view mirros - I'm not lazy
• Rear Sliding window - Already have it (???)
• Some basic kind of electric rear/front window defroster - Don't care

The only things I wish it had are a standard locking tailgate (solved with a PopNLock) and autostick/manumatic (whatever you want to call it). Other than that, I don't think it's missing anything and the fact that you're comparing a compact/midsize truck to a fullsize says something.

 

Taco's don't even have defrosters? I thought that was a pretty baisc ammenity...

 

^Yeah, I'm not understanding a couple of his comments. I have a front defroster and rear sliding window. I don't know what he means.

 

on the windshield, yes... i think he means front side windows or something. my 300m had an electric defrost for the back window... basically it's a bunch of small lines that run across the glass and get warm enough to melt snow/ice

 

when you have the defroster on the vents beside the windows blow air too you just have to make sure they're open
I would like to see
sunroof
power sliding back window
and factory hids

 

Obviously you haven't seen the Frontier LE. It's midsize and it has a whole lot more stuff than the Tacoma.

 

A turbo Diesel for 2010 would be my vote!

 

right, i was just explaining that tacos DO have defrosters, and explain how they differ from electric ones

 

technically the taco is mid sized and the frontier is a mini... tacos are better compared to Dakotas. i like the frontiers too but i like tacos better

 

don't we all

 

I would like for that hot chick to come with the truck!

I would like heated seats for my back aches, ohh so nice. also Disc brakes in the back.

 

It's been -35ºC here for the past 4 days and I haven't had a buildup of frost on my rear windows. And I always park outside. How is this an issues?

It's a Truck. If you want a Escalade or 325i then go buy one. You own a truck. It's made to haul shit. Not make you feel like a pimp daddy.

Which is why it's won consumer guide best buy every year since it was redesigned in 2005.

Tacoma doesn't need fucking gimmicks to sell.

 

i believe the 09s come standard with rear disc brakes now...

idk, i don't need them, it did come in handy on the car... and damn tacos for life huh? lol

 

the only things i really wish the taco had are a tundra style roll down rear window and a sunroof.

i likes the air, and i likes the sunshine. but thats just me!

 

I'm happy with it the way it is. I wanted a basic but reliable truck, and that's more than what I got. If all those things came standard, it would have pushed it out of my price range... and then I'd be stuck driving a Ranger. Heck, the standard power windows/locks, side airbags, and traction control are luxuries that I'm not yet accustomed to. I will however give a +1 to the cargo lights.
