Power really isn't the issue with this truck. If Toyota would have simply dropped in their 8 speed auto which has been on the market since 2008, they could have remedied this shifting issue a decade ago plus the truck would be much quicker and would get 15-20% better mpgs.
Toyota is an ultra conservative brand that is totally risk adverse and typically 5 to 10 years behind in technology.
