    Hello,

    I am in the market for a Tundra and have settled in on a few 2014-2016 used SR5s. Couple questions I have: Do all the SR5s come with "standard" equipment like back up cam, bluetooth, keyless entry, fog lights, power "everything", heated mirrors, towing package, deck rail, etc.? Or are there significant variations? Some list all this stuff, others do not. Any big differences between '14 - '16 SR5s??
    Any help/insight would be appreciated. Thanks.

    The tundra packages are a little complicated. You should go to Toyota and build a new one just to see your options. But if you want a 38 gallon tank, which I highly suggest, you have to get a '16 or '17 with the SR5 upgrade package. That will also include power drivers seat, center console with bucket seats, garage door opener, auto dim mirror, and maybe a couple other things. But you can't get the front bench seat. And our keyless entry means remote fob. Not true keyless entry. Hope that helps

    A little of this and a little of that.
    Just get a Limited or a Platinum. Then you'll have all the basic add on's. Joonbug's suggestion about seeing what's available is a great idea. I wish I would've done that before buying my Limited, although I'm never selling my truck now. Unless it's to buy a new model Tundra. I fear I'll have too much sweat equity by then that'll make it cost prohibitive. Plus she's my first, lol!!

    Check out Toyota.com and see all the features that are available, and remember that a lot of the add on's you can buy with the truck can be fitted/modded on.

    I don't know your time frame but really digging into this site will unveil a ton of ideas for you that you may or may not want on your truck.

    Good luck and welcome to the club (almost).

    5.7L comes with tow package, deck rail system is an accessory not a package so it depends on individual truck. Navigation is with TRD package. The other points were answered by others above.

    Not sure about nav. I think it comes with entune premium. I don't have TRD upgrade package but I have nav.

    Nav inclusion to TRD package may have started in 2016 cuz the one I test drove had it as part of TRD.

    Since I can't get a transferflow, looks like I'm going with the @Hattori mod.

    Got holes drilled and positioned, just need some stainless steel hardware. Should have it done in next couple of days. Thanks Tommy, I almost gave up on cans like this because most say they can't ship to California. These are perfect.
