Pro Trailer back up assist

Early this morning I was able to witness a 4 door F150 2.7L with the tow button feature in action where the truck did all steering input

As we were getting all our race cars on the trucks, watched in amazement how new technology worked for the driver

Do we see any kind of auto tow assist like that upcoming in Tacoma or tundra?

Trucks are such a hot market that usually companies copy each other

Any rumors out there if it's coming on toyotas ?

The Tacoma should get a power seat first ffs

 

probably too hard to do with the engine surging issues many people experience.

 

Interesting, didn't think about that. I was thinking with throttle by wire, it would be easy modulation, but what you say makes sense.

Appreciate it.

 

Is the current Tundra re-design another 3-4 years out????

 

But the 2014 was just cosmetic refresh, not a redesign, right?

I really don't want to keep my PRO for another 4 years .

UGH

 

Makes sense

 

Love the Tundra PRO. But my next truck has to be useful to my lifestyle.

Tunda
5.7L
4wd
Double Cab
8 Feet bed

Those are my requirements.

 

I LOVE the rear seat of the crew max. However, the Double Cab has enough space for me at the rear. For me the 5ft bed is no go, need the 8 feet.

Mine will be RED

 

I have been backing up trailers for 30 years I have no need for tow assist and the extra cost

 

I am not saying it is for everyone, or every one needs it.

I used to drive a Toyota with 3 on the tree shifter. I have had roll up windows most of my life, AT windows are nice to have at times.

I am not saying its NEEDED or REQUIRED.

I just saw it in action, and it was amazingly quick and helpful.

I am sure I would be fine in a 73 International Scout, and don't need a modern Toyota Tacoma either, Bill

 

Hutch you are NOT a good person.

I traded the TRD OR with 3800 miles. Just hit 3700 miles on the PRO. I want to keep it till at least 10K miles!!!!!!

 

I JUST did the 2800 mile trip to Mexico in the PRO. Yes I am ALMOST ready for something new

 

thank you. Just making a statement that I have not need for something that is going to add cost with no benefit. To me this is like LED DTRLs. Not sure what real purpose they serve other than adding cost. Of auto manufacturers like added revenue.

 

BETTER BE POSTING SOME PICS

 

Holy moly

Jealous

Interior pics
Rear ass shot

More more

Congrats brotha!!!

4wd?

 

I test drove a trd off road tundra crewmax and would have bought it over the 4Runner, but I wish they gave you the option for color matched! You're right, tame the chrome!!!
