Test drove a Tundra last night. The main thing I didnt like compared to an F150 is the sightlines out of it seem to be notably narrower. It might have helped if I raised the seat a bit but my head felt pretty close to the ceiling already. I feel like transmission smoothness and expected resale value/reliability are the only things it really does better than an F150, everything else I would care about seems to favor an F150.
I'm curious about how being subscribed to the connected services impacts what info from your truck/travels is available. It may not be a lot of $ but it does chap my ass they'd do some bullshit like that. That is one of the main reasons I might look elsewhere.
Let me know if you find something.
I used the remote start a few times when I first bought the truck a couple months ago just to try it out. About a month ago I unsubscribed from their connected services. Then I recently tried the remote start (key fob) and it will not function. The article someone dug up for me on the tundra forum was dated but said it was part of the subscription. And everything I've found says the same.
If its just a malfunction on my vehicle's end then I owe the toyota exec's and their ancestors/families/pets some apologies because I've ben cursing them all day.
