    OP, these threads always end two different ways:
    1. People end up wanting stuff that will fundamentally change the Tacoma into something other than an affordable midsize pickup or
    2. They want stuff that only a full size has.

    Bottom line...
    Nothing can improve the reliability and durability of a stock Tacoma so all mods are based on individual use or simply for looks.
    Toyota makes a few changes based on feedback from real customers from dealers or focus groups. Not from forums.

    ECT mode that doesn’t hold 3rd gear twice as long as any other gear. Also, no door open chime.

    Stock and staying that way
    Air conditioned seats. I probably wouldnt add aftermarket ones but would trade into a new one if Toyota offered them.

    Well, you can access a bit more low end/midrange with OVtune.

    Not bench racing here.

    How about a regular cab, short bed, manual, V6, 2wd?

    How about some real sport seats in the TRD Sport?

    How about making those seats heated and cooled too?

    And a standard power rear window on all trucks. Some of us are not double jointed!
