    They got rid of the two open storage bins in the truck bed above the wheel wells! I don't understand why they would get rid of those. They were very nice to have when truck camping - they were like bedside tables.

    Anyone notice other changes that I may have missed? (other than front end looks, awesome touch screen stereo)

    HAHA - I can't tell if the three dots mean sarcasm, but I do miss those bins. It took me about 2 minutes with the new bluetooth touchscreen and backup camera and I was over the bins. Living in the rust-belt, I am sooooooo happy to have a clean truck with a black, freshly painted frame.

    No sarcasm. I really miss those bins.

    I camped this weekend with a truck tent on the bed, and then I REALLY missed them.

    They are part of the ultra-exclusive TRD Sport package. :jerkoff:

    My truck is Canadian too - i know sometimes the packages are different but that usually amounts to us getting less options.
