Who cares how much fuel someone fills up their 36 gallon fuel tank with? Some people don't have the money to top it off every fill up. Some of you guys would argue with the sky if you didn't like its shade of blue.

There was one in Dallas last year, for a few days. Mainly because the hurricane hit Houston and trucks could not get out, people panic'd and ran every darn station out of gas in the DFW area! Work even sent us home to try to get gas if we could, then said work from home the next several days. It was a little comical.

Option I don't regret getting, BLIS. I'm blind in my right eye, so it really helps when changing lanes or looking to the right when backing out of a spot, although I usually back in to park 95% of the time.

Some hate BLIS so not really an everyone likes option. Guys lower tall trucks and raise low ones. Guys with soft suspensions want them stiff and those with stiff want a better ride. Some buy a bottom dollar truck and then spend huge adding options. Guys change exhaust to every conceivable option and any engine choice is hotly debated. Some hate electric parking brakes and some can't stand remote start or adaptive cruise

I do note, however, that we NEVER have a thread about:

Going from 3.73 to a taller gear
Going from 36 gallon tank to a smaller
Replacing OE tow mirrors with anything
Removing the factory tailgate step.

Agree, but we have seen several comments that people specifically avoided a Lariat or higher due to them.

We couldn’t get gas for a while after the 89’ earthquake. All it takes is a natural disaster, which can happen at any time depending where you live.
