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.
True dat. Base XL/Tradesman models comp to Longhorn/Lariat/Platinum models is like $20k plus upcharge!
Give me a tradesman Ram HO diesel, carpet delete, manual shift 4wd, no TC, Esp, add driving lights and Longhorn seats, I'd buy it!
All the wood trimmed steering wheel bs and 7 cameras, heat and cooled butt scratchers, 4 way climate control and power folding mirrors drive me nuts.
Lotsa people love it, but even though Im about a generation younger than most members here I bet, I'm still old school for trucks.
