    As we all are aware, recent crossover suv's have monitor alerts for traffic. Does anyone know if after market adds are available or being developed??

    I was referring to the side traffic indicator in the mirrors. Also the lane monitor which beeps and pulls back in lane. Some also have traffic monitoring in front when on cruise control. Toyota has it on Highlander RAV4 and Honda does as well. While optional in some it is becoming standard. Sorry for the confusion. As to navigation I have found with voice commands the system is pretty well worthless.

    Only on the Limited if it's offered there. My 2016 Tacoma had them, wish mine 4Runner did.

    yeah, I do too. I don't think on limited either. can't believe somebody has not figured out how to add after market. Bet they will.Wife has on Highlander and really really helpful.

    Well I will admit I've forgotten the lights at least 25 times coming from an "automatic" setting which I did like more.
