New MGM TRD Offroad DCSB.....my Gripes

Just bought it this past week. Traded in my 2015 JKU Rubicon for it. Jeep was awesome offroad but sucked on the road, sucked gas, plus it was a Jeep. Anyway I traded for another Tacoma and so far really like it. Gota derp that front grille though! My gripes.....my Galaxy S5 wont charge wirelessly I suppose. But then again Im not all sure what I need to make this happen. I have the Otterbox cover on it and not willing to give that up I dont think.

Its 2016! Why cant we have automatic headlights!! I guess I will get used to it but dang.....come on.

Again its a 2016 model.....I have 110 power in the bed but cant have it in the cab to charge my electrical stuff? Is there a mod to move it up there besides having to run a extension cord thru the back glass.....LOL!

Also the chrome side steps have to go....chrome is from the 80's and 90's. The chrome rear bumper has to go too. I live in Colorado so if anyone wants to do some swapping or whatever Im up for it. I like colormatch or black. Other than that I seem to really like it!

 

Sounds like you should have gotten the premium and tech package. Auto headlights and body color bumper... Along with the other upgrades.

 

I kinda got what was on the lot. I trade vehicles alot for the most part but hopefully I keep this one awhile. Anyways dealing with dealers and whatnot I just dont have alot of patience for right now. We just moved from Texas to Colorado and my nerves are shot. They offered more than I owed on my Jeep and came off the sticker a little....like $850. I bought it. Might could have shopped around and saved a grand more between my trade and the sticker combined but it is what it is. Time is money to me.

 

yep, prem/tech package would have given you fixes to all your gripes except the 110 outlet in the cab. Plus you would have got heated seats & Dual Climate Control too!!

I traded in my Jeep as well. It was a JK soft top lifted & running ToyoMT's. So Ill miss going topless all summer, but the ride is so night and day better in the Taco!

 

Was just FYI. Enjoy your truck.

 

No worries VetteVert. To be honest I didnt do alot of research on the new ones other than the engine/drivetrain. Seems alot dont like the new 3.5....I like mine. The bumper Im not so worried about really. The auto headlights....again its just something I will have to train myself to get used to again. Plus anytime visability is impaired in the LEAST I turn my lights on. Alot of times when the autos are still off. Somebody will come up with a fix to the 110 in the cab Im sure. 110 is on the truck so getting it into the cab cant be hard. If I remember right the 2nd gen models the inverter was under the console.

Yeah Chasin Tale......the ride is SO much more better. I had 2.5 RK lift with Fox shocks and 35" MT Deegan 38's and while it rode pretty decent it was still a Jeep and the wind WHIPPED its and my asses for too long.

 

My 2013 doesn't have auto headlights so I always leave them on. They automatically shut off when you turn the truck off and open the door.
