    Ahaha, well I've had my 2019 Tacoma about 2 1/2 months now, and that was the last "what's this button do" on my list. Well not really, I pushed that face/voice button on the steering wheel today and my Taco wanted me to call someone via my iphone bluetooth connection... :D

    Yeah, I was feeling around the rear window and winshield for heat, nothing going on there by pushing the defrost button, shut it off and drove away with foggy wet side view mirrors early this morning :D
