I just purchased a new 2014 Base SR5 , can't find the compass. Brochure says all models receive one. Anyone else have this problem?? We're is it located?

Just test drove the '14, and noticed that their is no compass by the clock like in my 2011. It's also missing the gauge which tells you how many miles you have until empty tank.

Other things I noticed that were "down graded"
No side mirror turn signals
The rear bumper looks a lot cheaper in person on the '14 year compared to the '11.
The front IMO does too.
The 4wd shifter is now automatic, I like the standard knob one better.
The new sr5 wheels are uglier... (Trails are nicer IMO)

Things I liked:
The doors now have a leather trim on them instead of plastic, much nicer.
A lot less chrome outside, which is good
The headlights look so much nicer then the '11 year.
They have usb in the front, and they have 2 12volt auxiliary plugs in the rear mid section
Seats are Same quality.
*note, I test drive the NON premium version sr5

The digital display for the odometer is now multi function and gives much more information than previous... Average mpg, range, and I believe instant mpg along with tire pressure etc.
 
I just took delivery of my 2014 base model SR5 and was also wondering about the compass. Looked in my owners manual and it said only models with navigation receive the compass. Was a misprint in the brochure and online!

Did you look directly above the "odo" on the digital display between speedo and tach?
 
I did yeah it is not there. It doesn't come on the base model SR5 it only comes on the premium package featuring navigation!

Did you notice any differences in how it rides?
 
A lot of stuff is now missing on the base

Base also added a lot of stuff which was options before.

E.g. the 8-way power driver's seat (with adjustable lumbar support), roof rails, backup camera, the Optitron instrument cluster, etc.
