Default To order or not

Somewhat torn to order a truck and what to order....
Supercab....probably another EB either space white or silver
Things I dont want are power running boards and tailgate,wouldnt mind heated steering wheel.
Cant build anything here on Canadian site so I dont even know if our packages will be the same as US.
Heated steering wheel means a 502A....which probably gets me power running boards...dont want
502A with tailgate step gets the power tailgate....dont want.
Looking like Im gonna sacrifice something here.
302A loaded up wont get me the heated steering wheel but such is life.
I really need to see the space white in person too.
It would be nice to configure a truck exactly the way you want with a factory order....but you just cant.

I just built a 2021 xlt super cab on Saturday at a dealership near me, yes the build site isn't up for Canada but I was able to use the American site enough to know exactly what I wanted and went in to my dealership (southern Ontario) and built one, whole process was less than 30 minutes. I spent more time drooling over all the trucks and muscle cars out of my price range... yeah I'm talking about you f-250 tremor with the power stroke for $89,000 god dam it was gorgeous.

So Canadian packages and options are pretty much the same then?
I havent gone in to do a check with my salesman....
Ive drooled over a couple of Tremors too....but the 90K sticker isnt justifiable in my world for an every day driver.

yes, I was told the packages are the same, I was told that the block heater cord was law in Ontario so I didnt have to pick it as a extra. Some items they didnt know about yet like the tonneau cover because of possible bed redesign but I kinda doubt it. And some of the options that kick out other changes are a glitch in the build and price on American site, example picking wheel well liners removes the fx4 package. Crazy we gotta go into a dealer to spec out a truck the correct way. My dealer said canada build n price wont be live till end of December start of January. Good luck bud

A 502A SCab will be hard to find on the lots.

Oh I know all too well....its literally impossible.
In 2017 when I bought my current truck there were none in Canada.
Crew cab box is just too small for my needs.
Another 302A Supercab is a possibility if I can find exactly what I want.
But leather would be nice for clean up(lots of off road n dirt tracked into truck)
Circulation issues leave my hands cold always....hence the heated steering wheel.
Memory seats,homelink....a few other things would definitely be nice.
Ive been playing around on GM site....you cant get a double cab with 6.2L anymore...wtf.
Chev you can.
After owning 2 Ecoboosts and a 6.2L Chev there is no way I'm stepping down to a 5.3L.
GM also has some weird stuff....so Ford isnt alone in not being able for me to configure a truck exactly as I want.
