Things My Tundra Does That I Didn't Know...

The cup holder in the center console also lifts out for additional storage... or a nice hiding spot

A little thing I though was useless: Just tap the starter, and it runs until the truck starts.

Just returned from a substantial trip, driving my wife's Highlander to Edmonton AB and back. Had to hit the starter twice almost every time I started it up.

Why drive the Highlander? 17 MPG on the Tundra, 21 on the Highlander. Adds up when gas is 90 cents a liter!

I-Tap is very useful.

The intermittent wipers vary the time between wipes even between the detents on the switch.

The Delphi (Delco) systems really set the standard years ago and Toyota is just catching up to their logic and input frequency response. One thing Toyota does have over the Delphi system is the cancel option by pulling the stalk selector. On the Delphi you "had" to tap the brakes or turn the system off, the latter resulting in memory loss.

My 97 Taco with the 3.4 V6 and auto tranny had this feature.

I really like the little light on the front of the console that illuminates the ashtray/cupholders.

I noticed that on my vent control switch that the knob has stops in between the settings. Does that blend between the two or is it just dead space. (example between the defrost only setting and the defrost plus legs setting)
