I would like to see the CC trucks offered with the same Horsepower and Toque as the pickups. Even if they want offer it like the hellcats with two keys to get the addition horsepower.

Rear view camera on the cab when 5th wheel package is ordered. So you can see while hooking up. Automatic parking brake release when put in gear, my 89
taurus had this. A display that would show what gear the transmission is in. VW Rabbit does this. Spare tire wheel the same as the other 4. Easier tire rotation.

Air ride seat
Air ride front and rear suspension with 3 customer selected ride height and auto level.
Drop down rear glass like Tundra.
Twin fuel tanks 100 gallon total.

This? what?

Love to see the diesel hybrid trucks that on a limited run back in 2004 I believe, the truck was also a generator supplying 120 and 240 power. With the technology today it should be feasible.

This? what?

He's referring to the quote he highlighted in blue.
I'm not sure if he is referring to something other than the Electronic Range Selector (as my Big Horn has it, which is below a Laramie), but once you press the - button, it shows you what gear you are in.

 

[Evanson]

Gotcha. My Laramie will display gear chosen on dash.
New to the forum stuff.

8 speed Aisin, and Adaptive Cruise Control are on my list of "wannasees". LED or HID headlights are pretty high on the list too.

How about Energy Suspension urethane bushings under the entire truck (Spring eyes, all front end joints, engine and transmission mount cab mounts Etc). All movable joints should be serviceable and replaceable, no more plastic injection retaining the U-joints, nor replacing entire front end components because a non serviceable ball joint went bad.
They should have MUCH longer warranties also. As expensive and complex as they are they should have a minimum of 5+ years and 60K+, and 10 Yr 100K complete power train.
Maybe the Mfg will stop cutting corners to save a few pennies here and there.

 

[RClark]

It's easier to be cheap at the start and hope that when it goes it will be out of warranty or the owner would be to lazy to come in.

I would also like to have knobs for the heating and A/C controls. I guess the touch screen stuff is nice but around here the roads aren't the smoothest, so using the touch screen can be annoying when your finger is bouncing all over the place.

 

[Cummins12V98]

I can control the AC from the screen or with push buttons and knob.

But can you choose the floor or dash vents with a knob?

 

[DonFitzwater]

I'd like to see an exhaust system that will last. I fully blame the EPA for what has been done to out beloved tucks but the thought of having to pay for an expensive, government mandated exhaust pipe right around the time this thing is paid for just sucks.

most vehicles nowadays have those TFT screens.
