    Seriously, one of the best inventions. -30 again here this morning. At least my ass was warm after 5 minutes.

    I've had heated seats since 2003. Never going back. Unfortunately the heated steering wheel that was in my last car isn't available on the Tacoma. THAT is a total winter game changer.

    I've been searching for a place that can add a heat element to the steering wheel but I've had no luck. It's such a luxury and I miss it every day in the colder months. I'd be willing to pay some serious $ for one.

    I had a Jeep Renegade, briefly, and this is my most-missed feature.

    Same. I hate driving with gloves on. Heated wheel makes gloves something for cleaning snow off only. Does Toyota offer it at all on any vehicle? Our Highlander has damn near everything and I don't recall the heated wheel an option.

    Higherlander does have it I believe, also the Venza. The new Tundra's have it for sure. Not sure how feasible it is to try to put one of those in a Tacoma, but I half tempted to try lol.

    Dude...you MUST!

    Costco is selling the Bio Bidet again online for $200! I bought one 3 years ago and it is incredible! Seat temp up to 102°. Water temp up to 102°. It's an add on for your regular shitter. I'll never go back. I'm buying another during this sale.

    My wife's '20 Highlander Hybrid has it. It is one of the many things hers has that my Tacoma doesn't. But my heated seats are great.

    I'll never see -30° but I just added Seat Heaters to my rig. $100 for both front seats, bottom and back with OEM style switches and full harnesses/ relays.

    Not an option there is much call for here in south Florida, but when I lived in Vermont it was great. I know where you are coming from!

    What about cooled seats? That could be useful down there?

    Sure could be. For me it's not so bad because I have cloth seats and use a sun shade in the windshield during the summer. But if you have leather seats in can be brutal when you first sit down, especially if you have shorts on. Ouch!

    Heated seats are so nice in the winter, it was -15 a few weeks ago and windchill made it feel like -30.

    Also it may be my mind playing tricks on me, but I feel like heated seats help my back which on most days makes me feel like an old man.... (no offense)

    My work truck ('21 Chevy 2500) has heated seats and steering wheel. I do not like to drive the Tacoma when it's cold out. I'll add heated seats eventually, but the heated wheel is a game changer.

    I'd take the heated steering wheel before the seats. I don't care for leather seats and the cloth ones never feel that cold to me. Now my hands get cold even in gloves on those under 20 degree days. I forget to turn on the heated seats when driving my wife's car.
