You think XLT guys have it bad, Toyota tundra have it worst, My buddy got a 2017 limited tundra no folding mirrors, no A/C seats, no push start, no 4A, no LED lights, cheap leather, a old fashion key fob, no flex fuel, and this a LIMITED.

I also did notice your 2 year remark but again you're crazy if you think toyotas going to come out with anything majorly different like Ford did with the 2015 and Ram with the 2019, i don't even wanna mention chev because that things not nice in anyway lol
I was actually pretty interested to see what the 2020 tundra would be like but its still hush hush, i did find a short video of the 2020 sequoia and it looks like they didn't do anything major other than the TRD version. They finally got rid of the key and went smart key with push button but as petty as this sounds after seeing the key its totally fits the Toyota standards. Cheap and basic lol



What about GM? you said Ford is behind dodge and gm when it comes to interior styling. Surely you dont think the pre 2020 gm interior is nicer than ford do you? Even the 2020 gm interior is not getting great online reviews lol
You seem so caught in the Ford sells the most.....impressive.
Even tho the GM/Chev twins technically outsell them.
Ford does enough to sell trucks....hope they do more with them in my 2 year time frame....unlike GM
GM f.....d up big time by saying all new truck when interior is pretty much identical, and powertrains, except for 10 speed the same.
You and I have no clue what the Tundra is gonna be....hopefully they follow Rams lead and greatly improve pakages and their interiors and powertrain.
I don't mind its exterior look.
As far as the GM interior goes its on par with Ford,I was ok with my 15 interior....but they definitely missed the boat with their 19.....something Ford needs to avoid.
Ram has raised the bar as far as interiors go.....pretty much everyone who has sat in one agrees.
Ford needs to aim there.

It means they probably have a pretty good idea of how to equip their trucks to appeal to buyers despite the keyboard experts who insist otherwise.

Ford has the packages they do because of cost. It costs more to stock more parts, harnesses, assemblies to accommodate more options combinations. If they have fewer combinations of packages/options, they save money and manufacturing is simpler.

I will agree that no one knows what toyota has up their sleeves but i would be willing to bet my truck that they dont come out with anything revolutionary.

That you currently have to get a 502A or higher package to get a heated steering wheel is a joke.
Call it a convenience package, luxury package.....whatever.
If Ford hasn't improved the packages and redone the interior by the time warranty is up in 2 years(I have the decal cold rattle which doesn't inspire confidence in engine durability) then I cant see me driving another F150.
Toyota.....Dodge....who knows

Nobody is saying ford builds the best, i guess you missed my post where i didnt say that lol
You originally complained about the option packs and said fords not keeping up with the times and my argument is fords doing everything right because they're the number 1 seller.
reading really is hard sometimes........

Exactly! He has to argue that fords not keeping up but when we post real numbers he just brushes it off lol I really dont know how else you can translate success other than being the top seller

That's ok tho, keep your expectations low and you will be happy
