    Or maybe I've learned to drive my truck offroad and the large hood doesn't bother me one bit??? You can keep telling yourself how serious of an offroader you are though if it makes you feel more hardcore...

    Ok you win. You are a much better off roader than I am. I just wish I had better visibility. But that's just because I'm not as awesome as you. Wish I could offroad blind

    Then why did you ask if you’re the only one that feels this way in the OP, OP? Either collective conscious or off-roading relativism. Pick your tribe already!

    3rd Gen forward visibility sucks ass. Anyone who says otherwise is Toyota-splainin’. It’s god awful, no argument, full truth.

    Still love my truck.

    this is why you need a front camera. Yes you can see out the side window good luck out the windshield but with the front camera helps to not need a spotter . https://youtu.be/tDMbPSIHHag

    And like another poster said, it’s for pedestrians. My WHOLE LIFE I was taught how to not get nailed by a motor vehicle. But these days, parenting is so coddly and weak that the responsibility is on the vehicle owner (by way of manufacturer) to have a weak ass crumbly front end because parents can’t make people smart anymore.


    I’d like my regular-strength front end back please.

    I have a 17 CBOR. I’m thinking of a front camera. Is the display screen separate or on dash screen?
