having the stock aux switches was a game changer for the Bronco Community, made wiring up anything super simple. Looks like Toyota isnt putting this option in unless its the higher trims like TRD Pro / Trail Hunter. Yet in my area of Ma/NH I have yet to see anything besides those 2 trims have the aux switches optioned.

For those with non-hybrid, wish that it has 40A inside the cabin so that it can charge a power station quickly while driving (40A x 14V = 560W.)

Just FYI, you need some seriously thick wire for 12V@40A (see this chart showing gauge vs distance of the run: https://dcthermal.com/wire-guidecharts/ ) For example, from the table, 8 gauge to go up to 4.5 feet. Thicker if longer than that.

If Toyota provides 40A, I assume they put in the proper gauge. That's why I wish they put in 40A for in-cabin instead of 10A. I'm not sure if there is an easy way to run thick gauge wires from the engine compartment to inside the cabin?

Way easier than on the 3g Tacoma. The grommet through the firewall is easier to get to and much more flexible, at least on the non-hybrid version.
