Please clarify a couple of basic options for me...

Wait..What? Don't tell me you went out and bought one behind my back?

This is the first vehicle I've ever owned with IA and I love this feature and yes it only on the Lariat. I was all set to place my Bronco order and get a Base model but now rethinking this because I've grown to love most of these features I now have in my Ranger. Plus it doesn't help I keep watching videos from KOH where they show the nice big 12" touch screen and 360 cameras with all the angles & views. Now I'm up another 10K to go back to my original choice Badlands.

No, haven’t bought the damper yet...but who knows? They say you don’t miss what you never had and I never had keyless entry before and I love it.

Oh since you mentioned that. The Lariat does not come with the dampener, correct? Installing a DeeZee is not a problem but you would think it would come with one.

No, it doesn’t come with one, but maybe on the new generation there will be one.

You guys are forgetting about 4wd and a keyless entry benefit. No more keychain, lucky rabbits foot, house keys, finger nail clippers and other gizmos you might hang on your truck keys hitting you on your knee while driving (especially off road).

Oh, yes. Lots of vehicle break-ins in surrounding areas

Well, let's just say "Never say never" .

Seems as Ford can't figure out a power rear window without running into problems. There was a recall issue with the one on my first Sport Trac (2001). Went to put it in the vent position and it went all the way down and wouldn't go back up. Got alot of looks cruising down the highway in Maine in the middle of winter with the whole back of my cab wide open. When I went to buy the gen 2 Sport Trac in 2007 Ford didn't even put in a opening rear window ( tried to eliminate the issue hopeing nobody would notice maybe?). Had to wait till mid year 2007 before they put it back. A got a 2008 and was afraid to open it, when cold anyway.

Wait, so in 2021, they are selling vehicles where only the top of the line model has push button start/keyless etc? So there is an actual key in a 2021 XLT 302A package?

That's disappointing, we have a 302A truck coming in a couple weeks. We have a 2014 Explorer (albeit Limited) with full keyless. I have a base 2018 Mustang GT full keyless. We've had two mid range ECOSPORTS as a loaner while my Mustang gets a new short block, both with full keyless entry. So on a truck that costs probably twice as much as the POS Ecosport, they don't have intelligent access keys?

Guess I should have scrutinized the differences a bit more, but odds are we still wouldn't have gone with the Lariat as to get the other features we wanted (remote start, etc) it would have been another $3500-4500 jump (depending on if we still went with the BAP). In Va, we pay a tax yearly on car values, so that extra is felt there too. I'm just disappointed that something I see as pretty common and IMO should be included in a high XLT isn't included. Bad assumption on my part. We test drove a Lariat which of course had it.
