    Half the dash lights are out, and the headlights suck.

    That was once sentence, so I think that counts. ;)

    They are actually the base cushions from a spare set of 3000gt seats I had sitting around. Basically I took the taco base out, took the metal frame from the new seat and drilled new holes in the sides to mount to the taco frame. Then placed the cushion back on and bolted it down. That way I have all the same bolt holes for mounting, but I have the cushion and more importantly the support of the 3000gt seats. They keep ur butt much more anchored in place :cool:

    I hate that if i start my truck to warm it up in the morning i cant lock the doors. i had a spare key made so that i could, but most of the time the tumbler is frozen. Other than that i love my taco!

    WD 40 in the lock keeps moisture out in the winter. Hence the name "Water Displacement" :p

    Anything that displaces water works. Oil, WD-40, grease. The best thing I've found is WD-40 because it doesn't get all over your key and your pocket.

    true. Any lube that is greasy will attract dust, especially if you live in a dusty region.

    I like silicone lube (aerosol stuff). It dries and doesn't attract dust.

    No cruise control, intermittent wipers, power windows, power locks, (power from the engine), annoying sr5 badges that apparently meaningless designation of no options. ok, more than 1 thing.

    Too few to list.
    I don't like is the plastic window lever/locks on the access cab windows that eventually breaks. Good thing I found an aluminum replacement.

    I have a top of the line TRD 4WD 1999 with NO clock? Seat belts do not retract. Hate the radio tuning knobs. Most trouble free vehicle I have owned and rides great.

    OIL filter, I had a 1995 nissan frontier that had a filter so hard to get off, the local quick change oil place refused to service it.
