I have actually warped a few turns of tape around a pen to make it stay.

I realized today that the windshield washer nozzles are under the hood, rather than mounted in the hood. Keeps the look clean.

I have so many pocket tire gauges, one of them will fit in there.

I like the trail control feature more than I expected. Initially I wrote it off as 'nanny BS' but after using it on some really rocky and hilly hunting trails it beats stabbing the gas over bumps. It is turning out to actually be a pretty cool feature. The truck is great off-road by the way, and I've definitely put it to the test on several occasions.

I know this puts me firmly in the stupid column - but, I recently realized that my steering wheel goes both up and down and in and out. I've found a compromise position for the wheel that is comfortable and allows me to see the top half of the speedo.

That's a huge plus. I was watching the videos on it right before we went up to Sedona and couldn't wait to try it out. It was way better than I thought it would be and like how it controls the gas and braking. What's nice too is you can give it more gas if you need to go faster but as soon as you let off it goes right back to your set speed,I can't wait to use it more. Funny because I had the crawl control in my Tacoma and never used it once.

It is supposed to work in reverse as well!

Don't feel bad. I didn't know the steering wheel did that until just now reading your post. Thx:like:
