    This may very well be true. Running changes happen all the time.

    Clearly I’m bored. So I looked up the VIN for the nearest such vehicle and checked it out on the Toyota website. It lists the engine oil cooler and power steering fluid cooler just as on OP’s sticker. No ATF cooler. You would think it would specify an upgraded radiator though unless they’ve all been upgraded.

    For what it’s worth the date of first use is Jan. I didn’t see a build date unless that’s the same thing.

    I have 2018 and decided to see what my specs said and it doesn't mention an ATF cooler in the specs either. Yet my truck came with one :notsure:.

    Will you please stop making sense! That's not the theme here!

    On another note, I just checked my truck and there's two trans coolers.
    :yes:

    My 2020 built in 11/2019 has the cooler. Wonder if it’s a later build date with a new radiator design?

    The engine oil cooler is a cube looking thing between the fan and the engine, near the crank pulley on the driver's side.
