Limited vs SR5 Premium features?

[westwind77]

I have a '10 SR5 with the Premium package now but thinking of trading it in for a '17 Limited.

Curious what 'goodies' the Limited has vs the SR5 with the premium package, things you can not get with the SR5?

I think the #1 for for me is the full time vs the part time 4wd system. I know they are different exterior with the bumpers and the Limited comes with a matching spare rim & X-REAS. What 'goodies' am I missing? Toyota's site does a horrible job with their comps between models to show what you will be getting for the extra $$$.

Thanks!

This is a good place to start.

There are numerous things that the limited come with that you cannot get on
any other trim package. Dual climate controls, ambient lighting (foot wells, handles, along with other places), "real" leather seating, heated and cooled seats. (Yes cooled)... These are just a few of the things that will play a part in the difference the limited brings. Good luck with you decision.

Differences with the Limited and SR5 Premium are interior & electronics
-Real Leather seats (front heated and cooled)
-Dual Zone Auto Climate Control
-Auto headlights
-Keyless entry & start
-Front and Rear Parking Sensors
-JBL sound system with rear subwoofer

That's all I can think of besides what you already mentioned with XREAS suspension and Full Time 4WD.

Based on my relatively little experience, here are the features I would rate between the two:

Yes:
FT4WD
XREAS
Smart Key (I've gone soft, apparently)
Redwood interior (I'm also picky, and don't like black interior)
*Auto headlights (didn't realize this was an LE feature; again, soft)

Meh:
Dual zone climate control (the wife likes this)
Heated and ventilated seats (the wife likes these as well)
Leather (it's better than cloth, but not great)
Parking sensors (not tremendous, not as helpful as the camera)

Not worth the effort:
Remote start
Premium sound (dunno, maybe it's excellent, but it's just audio).

Oh, you have to be ok with the exterior design as well, which is a big decision breaker for some.
And the reduced clearance/entry and exit angles.

That is exactly what I was looking for, thank you!

I have been fine with the angles of my '10 SR5, but I am NOT a fan of the giant chrome mustache (as my wife call it) on the front. I really was hoping that was going to be changed throughout the years, but no luck. At least I want the silver anyway where it does not stand out too much.

Keep on seeing that the SR5P has heated mirrors yet I am nott seeing a switch for that in my 2016 SR5P, maybe I am blind

The heated side mirrors activate with the rear window defroster. Both share the same button.
