what could you do without

MAN...I didn't get that option on my Taco!

 

hmmm. i really don’t know. Maybe that stupid change holder to the left or steering wheel, I don’t keep anything in it. Thats all i can think of right now.

Maybe the storage cubbies behind the back seat of the DC. I took the plastic out and gained a lot of storage room.

well if you really think about it it gives each person 2 or 3 cup holders which is nice on long trips. I have used 8 or 9 of the 13 before.

 

The small door-less cubbies in the back. Useless.

 

I can drink to that. . .




Also, the bed cleats. Just give me METAL D-rings on every corner. . .

 

X2. I have a lot of nieces and nephew.

I could do without everything but 4WD to be honest, but the only bitch I really have is all the cup holders.

 

The chirping heater fan , the poorly designed abs system , the auto trans without a quick way of checking fluid ,the vibrations in the driveline , the dark key ignition switch and the dark 4X4 selector . I could have done without these flaws but hey !! The chev , dodge and Ford guys have it far worse than us for imperfections .
Can Toyota make an indestructible vehicle ? ofcourse they can ! The question is why would they in this greedy society when they see GM Ford and Chrysler making millions from after sale repairs

 

I don’t think it’s useless. but not “needed” I can back up to our trail 1 first try. But the trailer is a little wider then the truck so that helps. but just about every time all i have to do is back up. stop get out and lower it onto the ball. i have even done it in the dark. and the only light i had was the reverse lights and running/brake lights. I would not mind it having it though, Would help with parking some.

I agree, who needs that crap. Toyota should include an accurate tire pressure gauge with the owners manual instead.
I could live without the sliding rear window.

 

I would prefer that mine had the old-fashioned levers for the transfer case. I don't find power windows, electric door locks, TPMS, cruise control, ADD, steering wheel mounted radio controls, electric rear view mirrors, abs system, stability controls, and similar bells and whistles necessary. IMO fewer components means greater reliability and lower overall expense. I would be happy with modern engine technology applied to my old '85 Toyota. However, since we dinosaurs are in the minority, the manufacturers don't build to my tastes. I will have to live with what I have.

eta: I would also prefer to be able to put tire chains on the front wheels.

 

The unheated mirrors

 

sacrilege !

 

Rear tinfoil bumper and TPMS can go bye bye.

 

Electronic 4wd actuator. No need for a lazy boy switch.

 

The rubber cup holders that pop out with the bottle.

 

The weak inverter in the bed. At first I thought it was cool until I found out how low the wattage is. I haven't even tried it yet.
Might be slightly more useful in the cab.

And if you are going to put a TPMS system in a vehicle, at least make it useful and convenient. My Jeep Commander limited told me the exact pressure in each tire. Easy to keep them even and topped off. You can tell if one has a slow leak or something. Its much better than a light that goes off when it gets really low and then you have to check them all.

 

The bed inverter. And the tires. Those are so overrated.

 

Yes I have one. I don't tow a trailer and don't need it to parallel park. My eyes just can't focus very well on that little screen I guess it's just my age.

 

The engine rev on our manuals. I can manipulate my driving to mitigate the rev but it's no fun driving like that

 

where does one acquire said bitches?
