Yeah. My next car needs them. I hate that I like them so much.

To be fair, there is a big ol picture of the climate panel showing the missing buttons....
It'd be nice if they'd partner up with someone to offer basic window sticker info though. I wish that info wasn't treated as yet another damned profit center by the manufacturers. It should be easily available.

I almost never use mine. Truck doesn't have them. Vette and our subarus do but I never turn them on. Even yesterday when it was 5 degrees outside and my car sits outside. I don't like a toasty bottom.

Yeah it's 100% on me for not noticing, but still there are things it's hard to figure out without access to the original sticker

Dropped off the F250. We still may kinda look for one, but i think we're both leaning F150 with the higher payloads

So did you at least get some value out of the test drive?

Yeah it was nice to see what it was really like to do some of our normal weekend running around in. Nothing was that much more difficult than our current truck. Ride quality is pretty terrible though, it's not unexpected but still less than ideal. 950ftlbs of torque is pretty intoxicating though

That is Beth's one requirement for any car I get - must have heated seats. I agree with that statement as well hah. I miss the cooled seats of the CTS though...

Yeah I like cooled seats more than heated seats but the package they come with is much more expensive

I don't really ever use the heated seats in our Explorer, or my RS. But I use the cooled seats all the time in the Explorer, even in the winter

I've been very grateful for the heated seats in the Audi the last couple days.

I haven't used them in the Explorer or the RS the last few days. The heated steering wheel though, I used the crap out of it, and it's a must for me now too

Yesterday I had a completely shitty mental health day. I closed all the tabs I had saved with trucks on them felt like crying like a toddler and then went into the garage to work on the WRX.

Seriously wish I was closer to you. Take you out for drinks or something.
But as you know we are all here for you.

Appreciate that. I went to lunch with a friend today so that helped some. Unrelated to the vehicle shopping, sometimes I kinda feel like people don't actually want to be around me so I'm alone a lot especially working from home almost entirely.

I pretty much only hang out with my wife and kids and that's mostly at home. I love working from home but it does make me feel alone more than usual.
