I, like probably 90% of people with 4x4, don't need the big lift Ford and other mfgrs' 4x4 trucks have. I'd like to see a 4x4 "standard" suspension the same ride hight as the 4x2, or perhaps an inch lower than that. I need 4x4 and use it almost every day, but for snow, mud and very steep drives - I'm not into extreme offroading. An optional "high lift" (or some other marketing term) could be available and similar to the lift in Ford's current 4x4 - or even more so.

RAM boxes are very practical, but they do take a significant amount of bed space.

As for the 100K warranty - my dealer gives a LIFETIME warranty on all engine lubed parts, including turbos.

As for the 8/10 speed transmission - be patient, is not that feature on the way in the next year or so.

Speaking of the Titan, I love my Utili-track System. Let's you put the dividers or tie downs where you want/need them.

Not from a truck but every good feature from other trucks have been mentioned. I would love to have adaptive headlights on my truck. Absolutely loved them on my BMW.

Had a 09 Ram for about a year before I went back to a Ford, got drawn in by the new body style. Really liked the in-floor storage "bins" that were in the floor of the second row. They had a inner bucket that you could remove to clean. Made great spot to stash stuff.

1) Onboard clock synced (heh) to GPS time and aware of what time-zone and daylight savings rules are in effect. It's 2015. The fact that when I reset time to GPS, I then ALSO have to manually advance the time an hour is just... disappointing. Not a catastrophic issue obviously, but just... disappointing.

2) Truly premium audio offering. Not something that sounds "okay" or "good enough." But, like my Acura TL mentioned below, something that when you hear it literally drops your jaw and makes you giggle like an idiot because it sounds so clear and so phenomenally good.

(I'm assuming someone else's truck handles these better. My 2013 TL is a savant when it comes to stuff like this. It's like basic environmental issues -- climate, time, audio, etc. are just effortless and beneath its arrogant demeanor to worry about. Things like that are just always the way you'd expect them to be in that car. You truly forget about them. Great vehicle. Acura ELS audio might be best sounding audio system I've ever heard in my entire life. Not just for a car -- I mean ever, for anything, anywhere. No joke.)

I just bought a 2016 Fully loaded Lariat. I wanted race red so I didn't get the Platinum or Limited. The two things that I will miss from my 2014 1794 Tundra are
1) the rear window that fully drops
2) The nice LED DRL on the front headlights. I don't know why but I love those friggin LEDS on the front of the Tundra. Makes it look awesome.
