Which feature on your gen1 do you seldom use?

for me it would have to be the adjustable power mirrors
I rarely ever touch them

 

I'll bite, this rear seat cup holder


You must not drive at night much

 

Rear seats have to be #1 for most people

 

I never used the air bag.

 

I'm an electrician my back seat is all klein and dewalt no passengers maybe some 12-2. It's only cleaned out today cause it's a Holiday Happy new year everybody!

 

I hope I use my cup holder before my airbag. lol

 

Seldom does not mean 'never'

 

Clutch start cancel switch. I did use the F out of the cd / tape deck combo. Those were the days...

 

Differential locker

 

I've thought about bypassing the clutch switch and making it so you have to hit the cancel switch to start the truck just to fuck with people. But too few people would notice to be worth the trouble. I do use it when I have the truck parked with the handbrake and out of gear sometimes. Or when I was checking a few things.

Least used for me has to be the passenger airbag disable switch. Can't think of a scenario where I would engage it.

 

Never used the diff lock either. My truck has never seen gravel.

 

I like to leave mine off, and when I give someone a ride I enjoy asking the passenger if they would prefer me to arm the airbag.

 

Invaluable in snow the one time I got stuck

 

Overdrive off. There has been times while pulling something with a little weight to it, I’ll feel guilty of overworking the transmission and give it a press. Shortly thereafter, with the engine sounding like its fixing to blow up, and gas mileage probably in the single digits, hello overdrive.

 

Don't tell @gearcruncher

 

4WD...

My brother bought a 4X4 so he could go skiing in the winter... But he hadn't skied in the past 10-12 years... I inherited it 4 years ago.

I changed transfer case and diff fluid, but never got around to actually locking the hubs and trying out 4WD... Yeah, it's got the manual locking hubs...

I mostly just haven't found a place to try it out.

 

Turn signals.


j/k
Factory clock due to its ridiculous location.

 

This isn't BMWorld

 

So you previously owned a BMW or Audi.

Totally agreed, aside from the ball joint design my biggest complaint is the clock location.

Mostly a highway princess, I use most of the above features rarely but I do use them in a snow zone. I'd say the one thing I've never used is the sun visor slide-outs.

You really should, every 4 moths or so, so it doesn't malfunction. Any gravel parking lot or side road should do. You could even do it on pavement for a short time without hard turns.

 

I turn the O/D off when I’m in town.
