    Hi all!
    I live in Decatur Illinois and I am new to the Toyota line. I was a Ram driver. I bought a new 2017 Toyota Tacoma SR. It had 2750 miles on it.
    I love it, I had a 2011 Dakota Bighorn.
    It is a White 4 door truck, 2wd. I don't need the extra bells and whistlesMy Tacoma.jpg

    I didn't even get intermittent wipers on this truck. I know of old cars that have that on their vehicle. So I questioned my dealer, I was told it was not available. So I said , "If I bought a Toyota Tacoma SR-5 it would have them" The dealer got my drift finally. It will cost $700 to add. I am thinking about seat warmers and fog lamps. Little by little! First was the truck, then...........

    Do not pay $700 to add intermittent wipers, all you have to do is change the switch for the intermittent one less than $150 if you buy it from dealer. And there are tons of threads on here if how to do it, I think it's just two screws to take it all apart really. Fog lamps there's a great write up on here by nitoris for adding them to an SR.

    I was told I need a new wiper motor and the new hand control.. I could go to the junkyard and get the parts. I might be able to do the job!

    I really love my new truck, I know it is dependable. I had a Dodge Dakota Bighorn. It never let me down. I am three days short of two weeks since I put gas in it and I still have over 1/4 tank.! My old truck I would have had to put gas in it by now. Big difference!

    Are you saying that I don't need a different wiper motor, and that the motor on my truck will work?
