What improvements would you like to see to the Tacoma?

I don't have any real complaints, but I'd like some map lights in my regular cab... always have to feel around for a minute to find the dome light. I agree that a diesel option would be sweet, although I probably couldn't afford it anyway...

 

So to this point, the improvements to the tacoma have already been done and its called a tundra

 

Diesel
V8 engine
heated mirrors
6 spd auto tranny
6 spd maunal need beefy tranny
3.92/ 4.10 axle choice
4wd transfer case illumated switch.
keep the truck in med size.. NOT in 1st gen size.. too smallish.
better radio.
auto dimming view mirrors

 

speaking of the tundra... a heavy duty tundra would be pretty sick! put a giant ten cylinder or straight 8 turbo diesel. make it a crewmax with a long bed and a dually. with a fifth wheel in the bed. heavy duty starter. stuff similar to the 2500s and 3500s chevys fords and dodges.

 

Now that's a good idea for a 50k truck!

 

not sure if thats sarcasm or not but I believe it is. my moms trd crewmax was about 40k anyway. maybe 15 thousand extra to turn a half ton (i think thats what the tundra is) truck into a full ton?

 

Not really, was rounding up. But the description given of what he wanted to have in a tundra would be mid 40's, easy, ESP with 5th wheel, dually, etc

 

just not exactly ideal for tacomas lol.

 

The dash is led...all modern cars from at least 2002 have led lighting

 

7 Years of happy ownership here is my list in order of priority:
Better corrosion protection on the frame
Better fuel economy
Rear disc brakes
Cab brake light needs an integrated cargo bed light (This is basic pick-up truck stuff).

 

When I bought my Tacoma(this one and the one before) I knew what I was getting. I don't need a lot of gadgets and what not to keep me happy. I got the touch screen, bluetooth and steering wheel controls. I don't need much, just simple works for me.

I found that with the domestic makers that they give you all those extra gadgets and what not so they can skimp on reliability. I'll take little to no gadgets knowing that my truck is going to go 100k, 150, 200k without little issue. I wish I could say the same for the domestic makers. I wouldn't change a thing, I like my Tacoma the way it is.

 

Heated Mirrors


you're welcome OZ

 

Heated Mirrors and folding mirrors along with Auto headlights

 

They have auto headlights?

 

Heated mirrors, auto lights, quieter cabin, more efficient engine.

 

Heated mirrors, an 8 speed auto and a v8 option maybe a diesel as well but overall I cannot complain

 

they have auto lights.. turn your lights on and never turn them off.. they turn off when you open your door..

 

A robotic arm, that gives me hjs while driving. Ill put a bow on it, so no one questions its gender.

 

Larger fuel tank
