    What Tacoma setup do you WISH Toyota made?

    For me if Toyota made a DCSB 4 banger, 5 speed standard, 4x4, one would be sitting in my driveway.

    I'm content the way mine is. Wouldn't want to add any more junk. Would be cool if I could turn off the passenger airbag. Not sure I need so many airbags.

    X1000 for manual transfer case. Sitting at the dealership as I type this having mine checked for difficulty getting into and out of 4 low. Not much of a problem with rev hang in mine though. Either that or I'm just used to the Civic SI I had last year for a mpg beater that had TERRIBLE rev hang. Like a full second or two.

    I would like one with:
    Automatic headlights
    Heated mirrors
    One-touch up and down for all windows
    Better fuel economy
    Dual zone climate control

    or you could just say: stuff that pretty much every full-size truck now comes standard with in a truck that would actually fit in my garage and parking spaces.

    Do dents and scratches count?
    had some issues with my 2014 coming out of 4low. Found that if I roll the truck a little it disengages. Seems that the drive train gets a little bound up and rolling releases the tension. Sometimes their is an audible pop as it comes out of 4low as well.

    Thread jack over...

    The bed in Canada is 4'. Because of the exchange rate.
