New Tundra Questions after reading Owners Manual

Have had the truck for a week, read over the manual front to back and figured out all of the features and controls. First I’ll say I’ve owned trucks for years, off-road/hunting, towing, construction so I know how to use trucks, but this is the first ‘fancy’ truck with all of the collision and control features.
Some questions:
There are a gray and white cover caps to protect the tailgate harness connections when removing tailgate. Should these have been supplied with the truck? I don’t have them.

Do you have any negative experiences with PCS? The warnings about inadvertent activation basically cover very normal driving situations which is concerning. An example is if it activated when going around a stopped car which is making a left hand turn.

There is no maintenance schedule like the corolla has. Does Toyota have it on their website?

What is recommended for driving off-road, we have hunting land in northwest PA with trails that get pretty rough. Is there a way to turn everything off at once or do you have to do it one by one on the Multi into display. Is this what ya’ll refer to as beast mode?

Does traction control turn off when in 4HI?

As far as PCS goes I’ve never had it go off unexpectedly and I’ve had the truck for almost 2 years. The only issue I’ve ever had is occasionally if the front emblem gets dirty or if it rains really hard it will turn off the pcs system

 

Well that’s freakin usefull! Thank you, dumb question. When in 4HI they talk about 1 push, 3 sec push, etc. what are they pushing? I push, push and hold the 4x4 control outside knob, no lights change on the dash so I’m not sure I’m doing that right or I’m super confused?

 

This vid explains the traction control pretty well.

The 4x4 knob turns. Push and turn to engage 4low

 

traction control button next to "Tow-Haul-Ass" button.

 

Ahh got it I had to look for the traction control button. It is located in the center next to the USB ports so I had not noticed it before now.
