I think with the Ford there was a ton of pent up demand since 2016 and earlier Super Duty trucks were so dated, primarily with respect to the chassis (kind of a fundamental part of the truck). As far as the trim levels go, it always amazes me how much people are willing to spend on stuff that's so unimportant. The amount you spend on luxury features over the base level trucks is almost pure profit to the manufacturers.
I'd be willing to bet that I got as much off retail on my $80,000 sticker as you did. I will pay to use the "unimportant" to you stuff but when I go to sell it I will also get some of that back also. I know it's not important but I like the fact that I don't have to compromise with the DW with the climate control. I like that my seats are cooled and heated along with the heated steering wheel. I also feel good that I can find my truck anywhere it is on my phone, even if it is just in the parking lot or if my wife is on the side of the road with a flat. I also like that no matter what I have in the bed it will always ride level. There's a lot of little perks that one never thinks of that all the unimportant stuff gives that i didn't even mention. I use to think the same way as you but each truck I bought got a little nicer and nicer and now I say, I want it all.
