    Is anyone else bugged by where the USB is located under the climate controls? I have to bend my head way down to see it. I know...I know....1st world problems.

    Done and still this doesn’t apply to me. My fog lights Can be cut on and off whenever and it doesn’t effect my headlights at all. I can turn my headlights on without my fog lights too. They are completely independent

    Congratulations then because that feature has been non-existent on Tundras and Tacos until 2018. I haven’t owned a single Toyota or known of any vehicle for that matter that factory fog lights can be turned on without the headlights on without doing some kind of mod.

    Location is annoying, but I don't like how little power it puts out even more. I use it to charge my keys (aftermarket remote starter) and a 12v adapter to charge my phone. The stock USB just barely holds my phones battery level when I'm using Spotify, while the 12v adapter easily charges my phones battery when doing the same.

    My fogs can be turned on with just the DRLs and not the headlights if the switch is in this position (fuzzy picture):

    The C-pillar is 15 inches wide and the head rests are comically large. Both reduce visibility when changing lanes. Other than that, I am pretty happy with mine.

    Dash vents blowing heat, right rear head rest/piller dbl cab blind spot, no rear bumper step. Not "hate", just room for improvement.

    What do I hate? The gas mileage, but I knew that going in. I don't care at all about the TSS stuff, other than the blind spot monitoring. The radar is dumb. And that damn intermittent buzzing noise from behind my glove box that I am pretty sure I know how to fix, but it's been too cold to sit outside and remove the glove box. Otherwise, I could literally hug my truck I love it so much.

    I get that "buzzing" also. It sounds more like a relay that is going crazy, on-off very quickly. It is very intermittent, only happens once every three months or so.

    Mine is something loose behind the dash, usually only happens when it's cold, then quiets down as it warms up. Lots of different buzzing noises people are trying to solve with these trucks. Oh well, at least they're reliable.

    WOW!!! What a bunch a whiney ass big babies!!! Hell! I just looked at several of these, this one complaining about the heated seats don't heat quick enough, another complaining why the window on the dbl cab isn't automatic, etc. etc.!! Why don't you trade them in and get something fancy?? Hell, I'd give anything to have back my 'REAL TOYOTA TRUCK' any day of the week! It was the last of just the Toyota trucks, 1993, dxl cab, 4x4. 25 yrs. gone in one day. First wreck, Flipped it down a 15+' embankment, Feb. 12th. And walked away from it. I'd put that old boy up against any of these trucks, any day! That SOB started right up after it was taken to the auction house. No damage to the undercarriage, mainly the roof and passengers side. So, if I were y'all, I'd quit your dang whining about this and that.

(that's my trucks name, & what will be on my tag) It"a my Granddad's middle name. Didn't know what it meant till I looked it up. Its German origin. Talk later.

    Well, to be fair, the whole point of this thread was to ask people what they didn't like. To have them knit-pick things that could be changed for the better, in their opinion. So it might be a bit harsh to decry "whining" here.

    So far the only thing that comes to mind is the fact that Toyota ran out of their good paint colors and had to paint a bunch of Tundras white. :devil:

    My 2015 Sierra's radio had a replay option- you could rewind live radio. I didn't realize how much I used it until I got the Tundra.

    The average is in my signature. Right now the overall average (16 fill ups) is 12.9, mainly in town driving. Best has been 16.8 on open road @ 70MPH max for about 1/2 the drive.

    Truly, the most fantastic vehicle I've ever owned. I rarely buy a vehicle, much less a new one and this Tundra of mine tops the list. I did buy a brand new 2006 Tundra (that my daughter now drives and LOVES it with close to 250,000 miles on it) and that encouraged me to shop for my 2018. My wife bought a new 2017 Sequoia in June of that year and that clinched it. Had to have that 381 horsepower.

    Now, a little over a year and 28,000 miles, most fantastic. Love it every minute and actually look for excuses to jump in and head down the road.
