    This thread is checking all the boxes...

    lower model is better because its cheaper
    its a truck I don't need features
    my 6 foot bed allows me to do "real" truck work
    drums are the devil
    my higher payload makes it a truck despite being less than a minivans and not able to tow as much as one
    4 banger has plenty of power :rofl:

    What else we miss? :anonymous:

    You missed the clear misinterpretation of convenience versus safety features!

    Haha well you missed:
    *My 4 door OR makes a hella family sedan
    * Gotta have an OR for posin’ and curb hopping’ at the mall!
    *Which tires look most aggressive on my OR? Don’t care how they ride!
    *Gonna do a 3 inch lift on my OR then complain when shit vibrates and breaks!
    *Quick! Take a pic of me with one wheel of my OR sitting on a rock I could have easily went around!
    *Why underpay for a truck when you can overpay almost twice with an OR?
    *My DCSB can carry anything as long as it weighs under 980 lbs - my fat azz, and is short or its hanging way out past the bed.
    * Gonna black out my OR bumpers, door handles, side mirrors. Going for that SR Utility look!
    :thumbsup:

    Alex can't give you anything, he's gone to that big double jeopardy in the sky.

    You should have saved another $120 and got the upgrade. Sucks to be a "poor"?

    At least you solved your own problem for a little over $100. But I agree, it should be a standard feature on all vehicles at this point.

    IMO it's more silly that some vehicles don't come with a spare tire these days, just a can of Fix A Flat. Great for a small issue of course, but what good is that shit gonna do if the sidewall shreds?

    I can't believe thats still not a standard feature on all models. I couldn't believe when my 2nd gen didn't have intermittent wipers. Its a good joke I like to bring up when I tell them how base model my old truck was. It trained me tho, I hardly use me intermittent wipers now in my new truck, I just keep pushing that lever.

    Gardner truck at least sounds a little more upscale than pool boy truck or Terminix truck.
    I personally refer to my bad boy utility truck as an SR Poverty Package, and proud of it. :D
