What are the most enjoyed feature of your vehicle ?

I have 5 features that I REALLY cherish and would not live without it.

-Cruise control (on most trips I never touch throttle, I use CC buttons to slow, a ccel, etc.), I use it everywhere.

- Overhead temp gauge ( I live in MN, it's nice to see how cold is outside, even in summertime)

- Water temp gauge (it keeps going up and down, I call it Mario Bros. , keeps me cheaply entertained)

- Oil pressure (it's stuck up there but I can see it on the other corner of my eye)

- Trans temp ( added to my former '99 auto) PRICELESS if you have an auto, now I don't need it.

Now, what's yours favorite feature ????

I'm with ya on the cruise control, I sure am missing mine. My favorite features must include the almighty P7100, a push button start, and chicken lights.

It has got to be the steering wheel radio controls... TO much traffic here to even use the cruise control.. Only time those buttons get used is to activate the high Idle to warm up the truck....

Hmm heated seats and mirrors are near the top as well as the remote starter and automatic idle up. Can you tell I live in the
north?

THe Juice with attitude is great as well. Also just added a backup camera, makes hooking up the trailer a snap, first time every time!

Espar heater. Nothing like a warm truck without ever having it run. Other than that, it would be the throttle and clutch. Whats the fun if you can't shift gears then plant the pedal?

I really like all my gauges! I need to wire up my tranny temp gauge too. Oh I also like my indash monitor so I can kick back, eat popcorn and watch movies on those long trips.

I like that I have to pay $60 for 600+ miles of driving.......That's really the only feature my truck has, aside from the power seat (not seats) the prev. owner swapped in.

I've gotta say, in addition to everything mentioned above...

I love the cupholders. Large enough to almost hold a Nalgene and small enough to hold a Red Bull
