What features would YOU have put in the F-150 directly from the factory? (wish list)

American automakers have been slow on the auto-up feature because of trial lawyers. They are slowly coming around as anti-pinch technology has matured.
I'd like to see a heated steering wheel in the top trim level. The soft-drop tailgate shock is really nice, I installed it aftermarket. Should be available on the top trim level.
driver side grab handle as mentioned above, but I think there is an airbag issue preventing this.
move the ipod input to the glove box or center console. maybe they've done this since my 2010.

That would make sense but isn't the passenger airbag the same thing? My wife uses the passenger side handle when she gets in and has mentioned where is the drivers side one? Oh well, maybe it'll prevent her from wanting to drive it

I driven this generation Ford truck for several years. I still cannot judge the distance of the front bumper from things in front of the truck. So, I would like them to put parking sensors in the front bumper also.

That is a good one...after nearly a year and a half I still usually have the rear of my truck hanging out of my parking space a lil too far.

A proper detent for the door so that it will stay open an appropriate amount. It bothered my on my '10 and now that I have a '13 I thought for sure they would have resolved that, but NOOOO....still sits almost closed or almost wide open. WTF????

Great mod, don't have to worry about someone slamming the tailgate down after opening it. I have a two year old son and his head is at the perfect height to get smacked.
