Time to let go of that Tundra? Haha

 

Let’s not get ahead of ourselves lol

 

They actually did it .....

Real ARB stuff

Real suspension
Full time 4x4 on limited....

 

Best update to the 4th gen:

no more accumulator on the manual!

also get iMT(rev matching) and anti stall that can be toggled

 

Did Sheldon just say the MT is avail on SR and entry grade?
Hoping for an OR MT, but doesn't sound like it.

Edit: at 28:52 Sheldon says we offer this in the ORP, this is the sport but we offer it in the ORP.
What is "P"... product?

 

I assume off road premium - like on the 4runner

 

The biggest question I have is if Pro is AT only or Pro comes in both hybrid and non hybrid so MT would be non. Seems like it would only come in the iforce max which means only AT but that is a big change from 50/50 AT vs MT on pro.

 

Pro is non-hybrid only, so no MT

 

Toyota confirmed the Clutch-Start-Cancel stays too - pretty cool considering push button start is standard

 

Lol, love the accumulator part. For those dozen accumulator apologists out there, he basically said it was unnecessary and limited precision and consistency or "fidelity". Kinda like the ADM crowd has been preaching for years, but now straight from Toyota.

 

So no more pro MT? Only OffRoad? Makes a little bit of sense.

 

Welp....

Damn

Wrong decision, the 4th gen should have an accumulator too

(I might be biased...)

 

Happy to give you the one from my turd gen OR.

 

LOL, nope, you can certainly keep it

I sell the accumulator delete disk (my bias).

In truth I'm glad for future owners that they don't have to deal with this thing. Good move on Toyotas part.

 

couple things in this close-up of the shifter - it looks like that iMT rev matching / stall assist "intelligent Manual Transmission" feature can be easily turned off with the push of a button instead of having to putz with the radio






and if we're not going to get a hand brake, the next best thing on a electric brake is the HOLD feature where it pulls it for you at red lights and such so just like a 3rd gen MT, you don't have to sit at a light pressing the foot brake. I've really come to appreciate that on the autos I drive. If this thing drives well, then Toyota looks to have nailed it.

 

Shift knob looks too close to the center grab bar. Looks like a knuckle muncher for big hands...

 

hard to tell for sure, but it kinda does

 

Really hoping that comes out easy. Not a fan of it in the least.

 

Hope that shift knob isn't connected to the skirt anymore.
When I spun on my TRD knob she dropped her skirt and hasn't pulled it up since.
