    I was just thinking about the compass/temp gauge. I think it's the most useless thing I paid for on my truck. What else sucks?

    "Paint Protection Package", also known out here as "Desert Protection Package"......Its a scam, and people pay for the thing. Next up, would be "Nitrogen Filled Tires".....

    Glove box dampener. It allows the glove box to softly open.....but it falls off often, unless you screw it into the box, or throw it in the tool box...and vow to never use it again....(what I did)
