    That truck is a value worth buying new. Exactly what I would order if I was in the market and needed 4wd.

    For those of you who want a little more (like the sliding window and other stuff) but have an access cab, you can buy the trim and pull your jump seats, making it look just like this inside. Yes, it's not cheap. But it's a cool cross breed option.

    When the grand kids get too big for the back thats my plan. And swapping out the carpet for rubber flooring. Just because fishing/wading/kayaking.

    Yeah, that should be their RECCE ruck. I love mine, I can't stand the internal frame crap. There were some butthurt guys when I brought my recce ruck to AA and the majority of the guys were stuck with their plastic framed packs

    Sweet UP Taco bro,

    I love the base model trucks!

    I scored a 2015 AC UP with Convenience also. Had to wait four months after ordering it but I knew that UP front.
    4-cyl, 5-spd. If the wife and weren't trying to expand the family I would keep it and lift it with an ARB rear locker.

    That's not a utility package truck, I think the car seats fit pretty standard as long as you have the rear seats and belts. It's designed for a car seat. Where the utility package truck is not.

    But what I'm saying is you can go to a access cab with back seat and then mod like you want to!!

    Hey op, i am not positive on standard equipment on gen 3, but if the utility package still comes without cruise control and intermittent wipers I highly recommend those mods. Super easy to add, super useful.
