    Quebec. -30 Celsius. That’s -24 Fahrenheit. And isn’t fuel injection fantastic too. Never use a block heater. They just start. Back in carburetor days you had one try at it.

    I'm in Northern Ontario, Canada, -33C currently coldest so far was -44C with the windchill. This winter has been brutal. Heated seats and block heater are a must, the Tacoma is not happy starting that cold, and will squeal like crazy in my experience.

    Our 21 Rav4 XLE Premium has heated steering wheel, wish that was available on the Tacoma. We also got the Comfort+ package with it, which is an aux heater, trickle charger, block heater and bluetooth module. It's a decent heater that you can control with your phone as long as it's plugged in, no need to idle the engine to heat the cabin. Trying to convince the wife to let me get it installed on the Tacoma as well.

    From reading some of these comments it seems to me that some of you have forgotten that our tacos have auxiliary electric heaters built in that provide cabin heat much sooner than waiting for the engine to get warmed up. I have heated seats and between them and the electric heater it gets comfortable pretty quickly. It’s not 40 below where I am however so your results may vary.

    Wait till you find out about heated carpet squares for your desk at home! I have one under my desk, aside from having to share it with the cat my feet stay toasty warm on these cold MN days.

    Just got back from snowmobiling in that weather, Northern WI. -19 air temp.

    Taco was not happy to be fired up the morning of the return! Clutch pedal was almost inoperable for several miles. Then I watched a warm engine cool in a Starbucks drive thru. Idle couldn’t keep her at operating temp.

    You folks that deal with that BS all winter definitely need seat heaters!

    I have a fused spine and even when I lived in S Fla I kept the seat heater on full blast..

    When I bought the Tacoma, I calculated in the need to add heated seats [and seat covers - Clazzio] b/c I kinda need them to be comfortable for any drive over an hr..

    I also like to drive with the heated seats on, the heat on my feet and crack the windows for some fresh air flow [or sunroof in my car]..

    [I got a heated toilet seat and one of those squares under my desk too ;) cause cold sorta sux]

    Just added toolbox and roof-rack to haul my fishing boat 100's of miles into the backwoods every week. Goodrich K02s, Bilstein 5100 front and back, no lift.
    Jeez when I worked outdoors as a carpenter in winters in Calgary, we had only portable toilets in -30c weather. Takes all the fun out of crapping, no chance to sit and read. Freaking horrible lowering your ass onto that seat and you hope it don't stick.
