    You can easily control it with brake pressure so that the engine never shuts off, unless you want it to. Like at those red lights from hell where you sit for 3 minutes.

    I do and when i do its says basically press harder to engage start stop. Its my choice. So toyota designed it to be used 100 percent of availability, it probably only asks me 50 percent of stops and of that i use it 50 percent of the time so i have no concerns

    And when you shift to park and it shuts off, then randomly turns back on. No thanks. Or when you press the gas and the engine has to restart, ya amazing for oil pressure…..been proven time and time again over the last 4-5 decades the worst wear and tear on an engine is the starting process.

    auto / start stop is a joke and nothing good comes from it, ever. Well except the extra sales of batteries, because it’s a nightmare on batteries as well.

    I only have one: “Snow Mode”. A simple, one button option to shut off all the extra sensors when hit. Living in the north east my truck lights up like a Christmas tree in the snow as sensors get covered and there is no easy way to turn them all off.

    Great list Matt except for mud flaps. Not for me. (guess I’d have to remove and toss)
    I’ll add just some;
    - Let us move the truck after opening the door (without using the work-around)
    - Reverse the wiring on the rear window button so Up is Up and Down is Down.
    - Let the Stereo keep playing after I shut off the truck for 15 mins or until I open the door.
    - Make more config settings User-Accesible via the ITScreen Settings menu.
    - Don’t read the fuel level immediately after Starting until the inclineometer data shows the tuck level and not accelerating/decelerating to get a correct reading. (and for all reads during operation) (hopefully the TSB fixes this. I’ll find out next week)
    -Much brighter interior lighting with dimmer control.
    - Fully customizable gauge package for the IT display screen. (All temps, pressures, voltages and amperages and altitude)

    Ah, I feel better - LOL

    Reversing with the door open
    Make the beeping when key in pocket but out of truck optional
    Totally agree on the rear window switch direction
    Make the options you need Carista for available in the truck settings infotainment menu
    Smooth out the adaptive cruise control as mentioned above
    Fix the flimsy driver seat panel from the last two decades
    Go back to a one piece console arm rest, the 2.5gen was perfect
    Make the center console toggle switches available in the parts department for your blank unused toggle switches
    Ditch the luxury truck (SUV) auto features altogether and refocus on a functional truck style(like the flawed auto tailgate)
    Give us a physical button for infotainment screen on/off so you don't have to go three menu steps deep to turn it off while driving
    Fix the hood waffle at 70+
    Harder, more durable paint
    110% agree on 18-in wheels for TRD OR package
    Fender well storage options ( have you looked up under your fender wheel well area? There is so much room in there. There is so much wasted space in there)
    Wheel well liners as mentioned
