    It is not an option at all regardless of region, same thing with JBL.

    Get the manual. In 2hi or 4hi I can get it started and let it crawl with no throttle input, let alone what 4low will do.

    As far as fuel economy... You can see what my first couple tanks have been in my Fuelly signature. I can get 20+ pretty easily driving on secondary roads up to around 60 mph. Interstate or stop and go I'm in the 17's.

    I got back into a Tacoma (Had a '10 Manual as well) knowing it's not the most fuel efficient vehicle. As others have joked, it's not a Prius. ;)

    Thanks for confirming. I got a line on a spec-d as I want it (QS, DC, TRD OR, MT, tow, electronics) with a build date in the first week of Feb and delivery a couple weeks later.

    Another quick question on placing my order...are there any dealer installed accessories worth considering? Or would aftermarket options be better choices? I was thinking about the tonneau, bed extender, spare wheel lock, bed divider, bumper step. Thought?

    I don't think so, install on these items is all quite simple and they can be had on the aftermarket for substantially less than they cost at the dealer.

    A little late on the reply, but I would say that the towing package is worthwhile. For $650 you get a class-IV towing receiver hitch,, engine oil cooler, power steering cooler, 130-amp alternator, 4- and 7-pin connector with converter, and Trailer-Sway Control (TSC)29 (V6 only).
