What were everyone's "must haves" when they bought their truck?

I got mine off the lot and mine were crew cab, 3.5 engine, 4x4 and center console. I hate the flip down seat in the front. Color I could have not cared about as much but found my velocity blue which I wanted the most.

Lets hear them!

No turbos

Not Forest Green

I would have loved a manual transmission, manual transfer case and the 6.2 V8 but no dice. Not in 2021 and probably never again. I looked for over 18 months at used trucks for sale and they were either overpriced, out of state, or totally knackered.

I would have liked if Ford could have optioned LED headlights, The 4A transfer case and a rear sliding window in the regular cab but I guess they don't want me or anyone else to have them. It was very hard deciding on what I would get within my parameters.
