    Nah, most of those have become pretty basic features/options in vehicles now. As much as I LOVE my Tacoma, it is not the greatest value proposition for what we get for the money, IMO (for TRD's and Limited).

    I don’t think so, ie if you have a sunroof. At least in the off-road models.

    I know 4x4 OR’s do not. The crawl control and MTS are located where the sunglasses holder is located. I have a 4x2 off-road and I have the sunglasss holder tho.

    That would require me to shift into reverse. Hard to do that while on the expressway

    I can see those being useful mods to combat morning traffic.

    Mandatory tint, in-channel visors, and 265/75R16 MT Toyos.
    Well as most new cars...they use cap less system. Also the gas cap fits in the handle for the nozzle at the pump which you can use to keep a good constant flow even when there's no latch to keep the flow.

    Rear camera anytime switch. I use the rear camera in my SUV to see if I've pulled into the garage far enough to clear the door. PITA to have to keep shifting into reverse to see if I'm in far enough.
    Frame mounted truck bed d-rings as an option.
    Truck bed support notches sized to fit standard dimensional lumber.
    8 foot length inside tailgate so I can transport 4x8 sheet goods with the tailgate closed and not hanging over the top of the tailgate.
    Power tailgate lock, and a tailgate security device one step above a hose clamp.

    As weird as it sounds, i have seen some new vehicles that do not have gas caps any longer, I think the are equippd with some sort of check valve if you happened to roll over though.
