I never understood why these long termers just didn't reorder in late 21 early 22. Now they're stuck with not much chance of that option till 24 orders start. You did the right thing.
Maybe there should only be 3 trim levels with most options available across the 3. Used to only be 3 trims in the f150 xl xlt and xlt lariat with most options available across the 3.
