Tom you are smart to buy the stripped truck with fewer gadgets. They are all built to get you into the showroom to go WOW, and then a couple of years later they all start to give you grief. Power windows that wont go up or down in the winter, climate controls that have a mind of their own, air suspensions that are total garbage, heated seats that the heating element fails in so you have a cold seat that you paid $500 extra dollars for, stereos that have power amplifiers and speakers that start crackling after a few years, electronically controlled automatic transmissions that have speed and position sensors all over the vehicle that leave the vehicle on the side of the road useless if one of the sensors go bad. About twenty door position switches on the doors that have to all be tripped in the zero degree weather or all the dome lights stay on, electronically controlled transfer cases that sometimes like to be in 4wd and sometimes in la, la, land. Less is better on any new vehicle, but it sounds like you know that already. I know too because I was foolish enough to buy a Lincoln Navigator which is not only the worst automobile I have ever owned but is more than likely the worst item I have ever owned period! Keep it simple and don't worry about resale value. None of them have any resale value so the less that you pay at the dealer to begin with the less it can depreciate. Good luck.
