Interior/Comfort Requests

[agir]

I support the:

Reverse Down Tilt mirrors

And may I add darkening said mirrors just like your rear-view mirror automatically? If you havve a car/truck behind you with badly adjusted lights this makes a huge different. Coming from BMWs that had these features decades ago, I wish ther rest of the world adjusted faster.

Also, I'd like:

Dog Mode

So if I leave the dog in the car, the car automatically barks to let folks know that if you break the window I will eat you. Just kidding, I'd like a remote temperature monitor, and to be able to set the car temp to a certain degree and maintain it while shopping for food, etc. Tesla has dog mode, probably Rivian, too.

Now, as to "comfortable seats", "quiet cabin", "premium audio", those are sadly subjective. What you may like may not be remotely good for me. I'll give you an example: I just sold my Toyota 4Runner, because for me the seats were unbearable. I'm just 5'7", but I have long legs, and didn't pay attention before getting the car that the seat cushion reaches to 3/4 of my leg.

So instead we could get an adjustable seat front, so if you need it longer, you can make it longer. Again, BMW did this.

Quiet cabin? I love my For F150 cabin, I think it's quiet, but who knows if you'd all agree.

Now the premium audio system for me is JL Audio or Burmester, Bowers and Wilkins. lol Not Bang and Olufsen. But the Fender audio in a VW Alltrack was pretty snazzy in the small cabin.

So you see it's not that easy for them to do this, plus to keep the costs down, and not want to make the board happy.

Ok well I have an 1978SSII by Anything Scout,they did a great job...that said,I also have a 2024 Porsche Cayenne,and the ability to option this truck was enormous,I hope this is the same with the Scout,if you dont want to take the options then dont,at least you have the opportunity....Ok heat cooled and massage seats,although cooled/vented is never that good...heads up display..camera in the rearview....auto lights/brights.....adaptive cruise.....leather seats...no skimming on the seats themselves,I think we all will be driving this on long trips...and others.

Heads up display has become a favorite

I second this. Absolutely love mine

So, a 4-spd manual and manual glow plug like my 1980 would not be an appropriate interior comfort request?

I haven't seen any stick shift Ev's I think that's a reach

But maybe a manual glow plug button then??

 

[joewilk45]

There's no need for a glow plug on EV maybe have a few more glow plugs and check back later n next year ??

I'm apparently all alone in the, give me the most basic truck you possibly can.

I don't need carpet, leather, heated anything, or even power windows or locks.

I need the most capable, basic, cheapest truck I can get.

People beg for these things to be stuffed with unicorn leather and zebra hide, then wonder why prices have spiraled out of control .

If ya dont want the option then dont take them, the idea is its good to have options like investing in the market, many investment opportunities.
