    I'm definitely interested in seeing how the engine preforms just like the rest of you guys, it would be amazing if they've improved reliability even more. I'm also very excited to see that leather and luxury are now an option because as much as i love my cloth seat, a fancy interior would be nice as apposed to all the plastic and such in my truck

    It would be nice if one could get a Limited with all the TRD-OffRoad goodies. Locking Diff, A-trac, Off-road shocks, and crawl control, with leather and the better looking grill would be awsome. I would trade my 2014 for it.

    I would not count on that. They have always seemed to reserve certain options for the different levels etc..

    Honestly, if they could produce a hybrid system that used electric motors for some of that sweet instant torque and maintaining highway speeds, I could see a hybrid system working pretty well in a pickup.

    Not sure tech is quite there yet, but it's getting pretty close. The Tesla has bonkers torque numbers.

    If that's the case, I'm putting TRD Pro stickers on my wife's Prius. Only fair.

    I am always curious what changes/improvements are made on new models. Other than what I have read in MT I don't know much about the '16. I am very happy with my '10 and have no plans to get a newer one unless they make some dramatic changes. Hope the Tacoma's don't let the new Chevy/GMC midsize's out strip them on features, etc. Better gas milage would be nice, but it is still a pu.

    Just notice the tail gate handle asembly including the camera and lock looks like it's coming straight from the 14+ Tundra. Cool way to share components from Toyota :thumbsup:

    For what it's worth. The Atkinson engine in the Prius is UBER Toyota reliable.

    Had several problems with the RAV4; 1st model year.

    Have had ZERO problems with the Prius; 43,000 miles in.

    There's a heated rearview mirror in the cab.
