    You must've thought that it worked really terrible, but that Toyota did a really good job of disguising the lines on the window :laugh:

    I always thought it was a steering wheel warmer. Living in California, I've never had a reason to use it. I use my heated seats all the time though. They feel so good on my lower back!

    They're nice. Especially in this climate, when you go out in the morning in January and every surface in the car is -20 degrees.

    I can't wait to leave work and look at the button again. In my mind the icon is more round than rectangular. I guess that's simply because I was thinking it was a steering wheel...

    Cleary it's used to set the manual on fire. Note how it demonstrates how your hand is away from the flame.

    At least you have (or had) a manual...I'm still lurking to purchase this fall.

    I thought what a stupid yuppie I’m not paying for such a lazy mans ridiculous feature. Then the freezing rain came. While I might not have been willing to pay for this option it came with the truck and boy do I love it. I am not sure I can live without it now.
