lol That might be a good idea seeing how long this list is. But then I'll have to keep merging all the new threads when they come up and that's a lot of work.

Oh come on now, think outside the box and how this could be used for an advantage. All threads about deleted items can now be moved to the new members only "Deleted Items Discussion" forum. If you wish to discuss deleted items and become a member please contact Dave for how to buy a damper and order 303 spray which will grant you access to the "Deleted Items Discussion" forum. ?

From the build dates people have posted it would appear that sometime between February 2021 and April 2021 the front fenders switched from aluminum to steel.

Rinsed the mud out of the engine compartment today.

Can someone point out where I find the prop rod?

I posted this earlier, but mine was built in March of '21 and they're aluminum. Did it start in April?

I created a table to keep the eliminated features all in one place. Seems cost cutting grew as the model years went on to the dismay of owners, while the bean counters are now happier.

My '21 Lariat has the glove compartment light. You're spreadsheet shows them being removed in '20 some time?

Oh....a wet engine compartment.

Do you use something like this to dry it?

I’m adding hood struts to mine so I’ll have dual hood support capability. Just in case. But for the right price I’ll let the prop rod go

No, it was a little breezy so it got a blow dry. Clean engines are much easier to work on.
And I know some are squeamish about getting the engine wet but I've been doing that forever. I'm not using a pressure washer or even full pressure out of the tap, not soaking it, just a shower to rinse the dust and splattered mud. Only cars I ever had issues with were when they had old plug wires and that was resolved with wd40.
