    A simple bracket system to mount into the OEM roof rail system that could be used to mount a LED bar.

    I'm honestly thinking about putting a sized solar panel on the top of my tonneau. I'd try to make it 'blend in' so I don't look like a nerd, but it would be really nice to always have a trick charge going on my battery, never have to worry about dead batteries anymore.

    sun/moonroof? electric sliding rear window? i have no idea why the sliding window is there in double cabs! heated mirrors... so many convenience things that the tundra comes with! but, the tacoma has always been kinda bare bones. rear disc would be nice..

    You can reach the sliding rear from the drivers seat on the other models. I miss the electric adjustable drivers seat from the Tundra

    exactly. i can easily reach the slider in my access, but not in the double cab unless someone is sitting back there. its a pain in the ass if i want to open or close it. i cant believe i didnt think about electric seats!

    tacomas are expensive as it is though, all of these little convenience goodies are just going to jack up the price even more. i dont want to have to pay $40k for a brand new one. its nice to daydream though.

    As said before: a real offroad package(lift, solid axle), cargo lights. And the infinite tread life on tires and self filling gas tank would be awesome

    Also, more interior lighting. All I have is one dome light that doesnt even work

    That is very interesting...If it wasn't more than a good set of shocks, I might look into it more lol. I would try to put one on the roof or something to trickle charge the truck all day :D

    I was told by two separate dealerships yesterday they discontinued the Supercharger for the 05-11 model year but have a new one for the 12' model years but you have to have your ECU flashed by the dealership to make sure the new one is compatible with your ECU. I was told they won't even sell you the new supercharger until they check your ECU first to see if it is compatible because they don't want to deal with people trying to return a used 4k supercharger that throws a CEL and there is nothing you can do to fix it.

    I thought it sounded odd when I was told this by the first dealership so I called a second one and acted like I wanted to buy one and they told me the same thing.
