I’d say as a conservative estimate, 1 out of every 5 2nd & 3rd gen Tacomas I see out on the road have either a camper shell, rack or other heavy object over the bed, not even counting all the termite companies, pool cleaners, and other work tacos. So you’re estimate of 1 out of 100 million might be a tiny bit off, haha.

A couple bed stiffeners built into the truck from the factory would make about as much difference in fuel weight/economy as eating a breakfast before you drive or not, but they would make the truck stronger and better at handling many tasks that many owners will put their trucks thru.

Lol my number was hyperbole.

Thing is, I agree with you 100%

But we all know, Toyota will either
A: not give a crap and not listen to their customers (this is what car companies do)
B: "listen" to their customers, then come up with some $800 plastic add on that doesn't work right, then when nobody buys/wants it, they'll go back to saying "see? Nobody cares"
