    Want, yes. Need, no. It would be cool, but I can live without it. The thing that I could use more than anything is 110v receptacles in the bed. I honestly don’t know if Toyota offers it, but my buddy’s Titan has them and it’s really useful.

    The newer Tacos have the 110 plug, so next gen Tundras likely will. :fingerscrossed:

    Multifunction tailgate? I say no.
    I'd rather not have to shell out 5 grand when it breaks, just because it has a step, speaker, or margarita mixer built into it.

    How about some gadgets like oil slick and missiles like in that old Spy Hunter video game? I’d pay at least 5k for that.

    I'm not a fan of the silly tailgates they put on some of the new trucks. Looks like something that will break and I just want a regular tailgate. The outlet in the rear like tacomas have had since 2016 would be nice though. Also some rear under seat storage would be sweet.

    I'm good. I don't want cylinder deactivation, turbos, fancy tailgates, etc. As long as it's reliable... I am happy.

    It'll be a great theft deterrent, not many know how to drive stick nowadays.

    Tailgait itself fine for me. How about Auto up & down tailgate and remote locking?

    Really just settle for remote locking.

    Edit: 110-120 VAC receptacle should be a "No Brainer" as well.

    No crazy tailgate like the gmc. I like the no slam feature. Simple. Didn’t break and I’ve had more weight than I should on it and didn’t bend or break. Only thing could add. Is outlet in bed like Tacoma. Maybe two because then we would have one more than Tacoma :curls: and same or higher clearance rear bumper with a step like gmc. That’s all.

    A 18 speed is a pain in traffic. It always moves between 4th and 5th gear. Flippin the selector button up and down
