I agree... nice feature, but I’ve been burned on these “new and improved” gizmos before. Give me a bare bones truck any day without all the bells and whistles. We’ll construct a shrine of burrito shells and LaBatts Light in your 1/2 parking space. The Fords have a step with a handle that comes out of the top of the tailgate, that one looks like it could be used also as a seat for those not tall enough to sit on the actual tailgate. Originally I thought about going with the extra warranty on it because of all the "Bells and Whistles" and electronics on these new trucks. I loo back at my first truck (first that ran and I used as a Daily driver) a '98 Dakota regular cab and there was nothing to it besides the electronics needed for the computer and Fuel injection 1
US Egg Posted June 18, 2019 Posted June 18, 2019 (edited) True truck buying story and possible advice. Told my wife I was going to look at trucks 12/23/16. Bought a new Lariat and drove it home same day. Traded in a 2015 GMC I regretted buying 1 1/2 yr. earlier. Wife knew she couldn't ruin Christmas. We had lots of comings and going to tend to that Holiday week. Advice is knowing when to take a chance. .....and that Ford is a much better choice than GMC, and wife now likes driving it.

I can deal with marathon and half marathon rumors. But Bernie and CoExist is where I draw the line. Don’t you even dare start that bull spit rumor. I will stab you in the face with a dull spoon next time I see you.

I keep them handy to Hotwire your POS Toyota and @Gugny‘s Nissan Versa Note. Lol. It cracks me up every time I type Nissan Versa Note. I can’t even keep a straight face anymore. It’s what I imagine Backstreet Boys would be if they were a car.
