    Hi, Fellas. Is there a reason Toyota removed the Driver's side grab handle? It was present on the 2nd gen, and then removed on 3rd gen. I would love them to offer the option to put in on.

    Just curious what you guys thought.

    Cheers!

    NBD. Wasn't trying to be an asshole to you. Just saying it's been covered. My apologies.

    No offense taken. I guess I should have just searched for it.

    There was an airbag on the A Pillar in the 2nd Gen too, l believe it is a cost cutting measure.
