I don't, so that's the difference.

A Lariat with a heated wheel without adaptive cruise might be hard to find, if such a thing even exists.

 

She has all thumbs!

My wifes new Camry has adaptive cruise and all I can say is IT'S AWESOME!

 

Maybe, maybe not. The adaptive CC is something like a $1200 add-on, and the heated wheel is only an extra $200. So there's probably a few out there.

 

A friend has it in his Forester. It's pretty neat, but I see it being more useful for populated areas than for where I drive. I'm almost never on a highway and if I am, it's a rural one without much traffic to follow in the first place.

 

The GF's Mustang has it. It's handy for her commute and she uses it pretty much every day, but I've only used it once or twice in the nearly two years she's owned it.

 

My commute doesn't have much for highway. A few secondary roads, a couple state-maintained minor highways (just two lane, sometimes with a third as a climbing lane), and a dirt road that cuts off a few miles. But I haven't taken the dirt road since I got the new truck. It's steep and rough and feels like you're driving over railroad tracks in sections.

 

Yeah, we live 5 minutes from the highway and then she's on I-95 all the way to South Portland, so for her it's very convenient.

 

My taco has it. I use it occasionally on the highway. When I used it the first time I actually never pressed the brakes when getting off the highway since there was a car exiting in front of me. Brought me all the way to the red light at the intersection. I was a little weary of it but wanted to test it out so I had my foot an inch above the brake the whole time haha.

 

When I was young and dumb, I put a billet shifter knob on my Ranger 5 speed. Looked great in the summer but I froze my damn hand off in the winter.

This is on my short list of mods to do but I've been finding Lariat steering wheels for like $150-160ish... Can you use a F250 lariat steering wheel? I don't know why the 150 steering wheel would be that expensive. I'm doing it for the leather wrapped wheel as mine only has the vinyl. I researched it before evening buying the truck, seemed like a relatively cheap and easy mod.

 

I have a shifter beanie for the truck. I have a 1lb metal shift knob. But with the tint doesn't get bag

 

I would think so. I'd have to look and make sure the buttons are the same.

Mine is leather already because it's a 302a XLT Sport. Either the sport package or the 302a gave that to me. But, it's not heated.

 

Lol this is what I have in my Stang, since it's a nice weather car it usually is just burning hot. I just took of my socks that lost a partner and keep that in there for when it's needed.

Man I don't come in here for half a week and you guys talk enough to go 30 pages....ain't no one got time for that.

 

You could either catch up on the 30 pages, or paint 10 emblems haha.

 

My guess is people would rather me go with the latter option.

 

I'm not looking for a heated one, that might be why mine is cheaper. Haha, if you buy a heated one, maybe I can buy your old one off you!

 

Northeast Corridor thing.
People were nice in North Central Pennsyltucky when I used to travel there.

 

Wrong! I look at TW mostly at work so essentially I get paid to surf it.

 

Just do what I do on a Monday: Ignore what happened over the weekend, jump in on the most recent page, and ask if you missed anything

 

I'll let you know if I happen to pull the trigger.

Kind of low priority at the moment as far as the truck is concerned. My first mission is probably going to be another set of wheels so I can have dedicated snow tires for winter.

Did you swing by that general store when you picked yours up? I realized the Huntington one is bigger and nicer, but the Williamsburg one is still worth a stop.
