What is this little cubby for?

'19 SR5 w/TRD upgrade package, passenger side of the center console.

I put a spare pair of readers in there, but I have this terrible fear that there's a super cool reason for this little niche that I don't know about.

Does it have a specific purpose?

What do you put there?

 

My wife shoves her trash in there. She knows I can’t see it from my seat.

 

Okay, so far that's not the "super cool reason"...

 

Yeah, this has been asked before. No super secret awesome use for it was discovered.

 

Probably not the traditional use, but I keep a 22-year-old Mcdonald's happy meal toy in mine.
It was my daughter's favorite toy for a while when she was 7 years old, she is now 29..
I kept it in my 97 4Runner, then my 2005 Tundra, and now it resides in that cubby in my 2014 Tundra.

I always thought it was a Lion King toy, but I just looked at the tag and it's an Animal Alley ToysRus toy made for McDonald's.

 

It's a grab handle that you grab with your right hand while pulling 3 Gs on a right hand turn.

 

Try a spare pistol magazine.

 

You put your weed in it.

 

A foot hold for hot, topless women to stand up through the sunroof?
I dunno, I have an SR with the bench seat. I just assume that your life is an 80s beer commercial if you have upgrade packages and the center console.

 

Dude, I LOVE that!! Ya' big softy.

Only thing I love more than that story is your avatar. Is that Raquel Welch?

 

But... I don't even have a sunroof. And there hasn't been any hot topless women in my truck in weeks.

 

I figured the question had probably been asked a bunch of times but didn't know what the hell to search for on that one.

 

Obviously bullets and shotgun shells for the passenger

 

Hmmm, you might be right!

 

There’s a cloaking device that snaps into the recess and when programmed to interact with your brain waves allows you to become invisible to the subversive organizations that are constantly monitoring your activities. That’s the good part. The bad part, is that the data is all routed through the Toyota central computer and is available to the highest bidder. Obviously to be used for various nefarious activities.

 

This is absolutely my favorite use posted by anyone!

 

I have a box with some of my 32 year old son's toys in the attic I need to give him, same for the daughter.
I have artwork from their grade school days in a folder somewhere.
I'm really not a hoarder, I just keep stuff like that for some reason.

As to the avatar, yes, I put it up when Raquel Welch passed.
I always thought she had a lot of class, something missing in 'celebrities' these days.
I have a habit of changing my avatar on a whim..

 

Hoarding is when it's useless junk. You're hanging onto treasures... I like it.

Its an OH SHIT!! handle

 

It's where the winch remote goes!

 

Ha, same here. I tend to find it when getting gas and searching the cab for stuff to throw away.

 

I’ve been putting things I want to disappear in there evidently. Everything I have put in there I have forgotten about and seen it days later when I open the passenger side. Yesterday I found a half bag of those delicious mints that banks give out. It felt like winning. Kinda like unintended, delayed gratification lol.

 

Haha, my wife does the same shit! She stored 50 used face masks in there and when i finally trash em, it became her trash can because I cant see it from my seat. I bought a trash can for her. I hate trash in my truck!

 

Lol never fails they do that.

 

Ok, the worst part about this is that now I’m going to have to walk out to my truck to see if this exists and I just haven’t noticed it yet. Lol (yeah, truck is new to me).

 

Map pocket. Since I dont use those anymore, mine sits empty until I haul the families littles.... Then its a magic pocket that holds all kinds of fun until I remember and clean it out. Kids are scary good at eating candy without you seeing and then throwing the trash in there.

 

Is there one on the other side? If so, it is where a giant can pick the truck up through the sunroof, if not, I'm stumped.
