    Heated seats in the SR5. A $36K vehicle should at least have them as an option.

    Buy a first gen V8 Tundra.
    Then do aftermarket for way less. The switch may look different but I guarantee your butt won’t know the difference and you won’t have to worry about the oem module getting slagged.

    Options are never free. Now you are to $36.5k :rofl:

    A full size from what year. They are already equal to most full size trucks of yore. Just smaller than full size of today, due to Mickey D bloated drivers.

    Are they bigger? Doesn't seem like much, but haven't checked. Hard to find one that isn't beat to $hit tho.

    This year. My take - I could use a bit more back seat room for my kids and dogs, but don't want to daily a full size. It would be great if they would give us a 2-3 more inches in the back seat of a DCSB (and even give the wheelbase an inch or two, without it looking too odd). Another inch of roof height would be great as well. I'm 6'2" 195lbs with a 34" waist, so not a "Micky D bloated driver" by any means.

    The way I have heard it explained from automotive engineers (this was a GM engineer talking about the Corvette) is that there is no camera on the market that will meet automotive OEM standards. Yah, the camera on my Iphone can shoot in 4k. But its not going to survive 10 years mounted to the windshield of a car parked in death valley.

    Not really answering your question but I will say this.. If you are using the back up camera to reverse on off-road terrain that is not flat/level you will have difficulty determining elevation differences that can give one some serious problems.. best to have a spotter from my experience anyway.

    For the matching spare tire to have a tire sensor in it and that the location could easily be reset (for doing five tire rotations).

    How tall are you? I'm 5' 11" ... if I had fit, I would have liked to have a moonroof in my access cab.

    I'm surprised nobody has mentioned a steel bed.
