Random stuff you LIKE about your 3rd gen tacoma

I agree,what a simple thing,but really needed.

 

Steering wheel, most comfortable I've ever held.

Push button start, thought I'd hate it and leave the fob in the truck. Instead I love it and leaving the keys in my pocket. No more fumbling around in the dark trying to insert the key.

Parking brake location. Matches my sportscar.

Have to add the color Quicksand, nothing quite like it on the road.

 

amount of cup holders
side mirror defrosters
auto-dimming rear view mirror
tailgate assist

 

On demand tire pressure information is handy as hell. Even when I think they look low they're not.

 

If you have SR5 or any of the TRD/limited trims, it's on one of the menu options in the dash screen.

 

Well don't I feel stupid,now that you showed the pic I thought because my icon to the right were real dim I couldn't access them,so I went out and clicked the right button on the right of the steering wheel and yup there are all my features.Guess I will have to spend more time with the book,but since I have a basic model the books talks about many features I don't have. Thanks for the help

 

I still haven't gone through my nav system, guess I am not looking for anything specific so I don't know if I have some things or not.

After my wife just picked her new Jeep Renegade up this past Sunday and I saw what hers does, now I am hoping mine does all of it as well, if not, I'll be disappointed.

 

No worries! I didn't read the book myself, and I find learning about the truck here on TW is much more fun.

 

Any previous 2nd gen owner will appreciate this one...

The center console opens from the MIDDLE now!!! That was seriously annoying as hell on my 2nd gen.

 

I had missed this feature from my last vehicle,but not anymore.I like this feature since I drive on dirt roads,i like to watch for slow leaks.
I like the non computer managed heater, Other vehicle I couldn't get heat until up to temp,that doesn't work in -21 temps.
I like the amount of cup holders.
The storage behind the back seat is great.(once I found it was there)
Tow package and 2 pins choices.
The color,i got blue but I sure like the inferno to.
I have 4wd again,not going to try those Awd low hung ones again.
The bed is short but with a hitch extender I haul 14 9 foot kayaks fine.
I like the vents and that they turn 360

 

One thing I'm amazed about is how fast it can respond with the keyless door unlock. I grab that handle so fast and pull and it barely has a chance to unlock but has never screwed up yet. Good design...

 

TPMS with individual tire pressure readouts ... it has already saved my bacon once. I punctured a tire on the highway and the system alerted me to the problem so that I could get stopped before any additional damage to the tire (or the truck) occurred. I had the tire patched and kept on trucking. I do wish the jack was a little taller though. That thing barely got the truck high enough to get the spare tire on.

 

Try it with one finger.. lol
sensor needs 2 or a properly positioned 1
Like come on toyota...

 

I came from a 02 Sentra Spec V indeed pile of garbage, totally regret investing so much time and money into it

 

QS color pure sex.
Aggressive looks.
Beautiful headlights.

Of course once cement 2017 PRO comes out, my love for my 16 QS will be dead.

 

I'm more impressed by how well it works in the rain. I had serious doubts, but lock and unlock on the handle both work great even in pouring rain.

 

I like the fact that everything is modifiable and I can buy a SR Truck and turn it into whatever I want!!! Which is my current plan!!!

 

I like the trip details when you turn off the truck in the speedo screen.

 

It should be a screen under the pitch and roll meter page. Or is pitch and roll and TPMS only a TRD and limited package?

 

Oh yes! You guys are right. Push button start is awesome! Turning a key is barbaric.
