    Thick gloves only keep your hands warm when you are working & stuff. Over here on the east side of the Cascades where it gets a little chilly at times I wear these in the mornings or out in the wilderness driving around. I've been wearing them for years since my Army flying days. These are the real thing, the cheaper options are crappy

    How about we be a little more conservative? Give us the 4.0L from the 4Runner at a minimum. Anything besides the crappy* 3.5L they're currently putting in it.

    *I'm sure it's very reliable but it's not a suitable truck engine.

    A working audio head. This JBL is a complete piece of crap. Wish I got no radio at all and put it into a Crutchfield complete system.

    After driving my new truck for a couple of weeks, I wish steering column would extend another inch or two.
    And that 360 degree cameras in the TRD Sport could be manually turned on at low speeds, ala TRD OR.

    Those gloves are the best. I should have snagged a few more pairs before I got out.

    2014 Tacoma 040 SR5 4x4 DC SB V6 AT5 Tow Pkg Entune+ Mostly stock with a couple of non-OEM nods.M mods.
    Stock (99.999%) OEM Bed Floor Mat, Front Bed Rail Cargo Net and hooks, Auto-Dim mirror w/Compass and outside Temperature display, TRD Pro Grille, Uni-Filter air pump modification, WeatherTech floor liners f/r. (winter) OEM All-Weather floor mats (summer).
    If I was ever buying another 4WD truck, even it wasn't a Tacoma, and if it was offered, I would check off the box for a manual transfer case and manual locking hubs. ...and I would pay extra for it. I live where I might want/need to engage 4WD 2-3 times in a year. If it's going to be sketchy on the road and the weather is coming: start the truck, turn the knobs before you start out on your trip, and drive off in 2L. 4H is still "shift on the fly" if you need it. No electrics, no motors, no ECU, no 2H/4H/4L lights. The stick on the floor tells you what is selected. When the sky clears, the roads are dry or when you get back to the Fire Road: switch the hubs to "Free". Move the stick to 4H: Done. I can't fathom how you would ever break it or what could/would go wrong and blow it up. Unless you somehow managed to select 4L at 30 mph.... Talk about problems! :facepalm:

    V8 mostly for the sound. Nothing compares to that unique growl 8 pistons produce.
