Why buttons and knobs on the center console like a car?

Have you ever used a hand brake?

 

At least we still have a gear shift lever and not a button or knob. Albeit, it's electronic, but still ....

 

I'm about to go full Scottish Alexa now. Im not even dressed yet. Thanks OP.

 

Congratulations. You are the first person on TacomaWorld to make the assertion that an overabundance of toggles and switches "isn't manly enough."









You are welcome to trade it for a Model Y at any time.

Here. There's no shortage of real estate to spill tape measures upon.

 

What really gets my goat is that OP coerced me into defending a 4th gen.

 

dont get me wrong I want physical buttons for everything just not right under where I typically hold cups of coffee when im hitting bumps. Just to confirm, yall like the buttons and 4x4 knobs right there in front of the center arm rest like that?

 

but now it has a button on the shifter that you have to push just to shift like a car. That kills it for me

 

so I can control the tension. I go light tension while parking with no trailer then heavy tension with heavy load on incline or decline if that makes sense

 

hand brake is also usable if brakes fail or sliding on down boat ramps. I can control it without a computer telling me when and when not I may use my own ebrake for the love.

 

most vechiles are designed for female drivers, they are often the decision makers in homes. been marketed towards women for the years, back in my Honda, Subaru days they literally explained the marketing strategies to female buyers and trucks and and SUV are for women now. sell the wife and youre good to go

 

There are actually a lot of things I despise about the design of the 4th gen. The buttons are in funny spots because Toyota decided that cars with IMAX theaters bolted to the dash are what sell these days. And indeed, the 4th gen is selling, despite me sitting on the couch, arms crossed, continuing to harrumph and not buy one.

 

THEYRE RIGHT my dog used to step on the dsc button all the time in t4r. i disabled it for that reason

 

transfer case mapping on the glove box son

 

Whats that welded to your transfer case shifter...

 

is that a Toyota can opener welded to the transfer case shifter?

 

You got three levers and only two hands how are you supposed to drink that Coke?

 

shoot I'm just worried about ripping that coke into reverse tearing that whole cup holder out of the dash lol
