Not in the 18s, if you wanted the sync 3 you had to bump up to the 801a.

Yea ford made it clear for the 2019’s they wanted most to opt for the 802a. The 800a vs 801a really doesn’t have that much differences, and if you wanted leather, tailgate appliqué, rear sliding window...you might just put another $6k and get 802a.

2017/2018 800a’s are rare as heck, mostly the SuperCabs have it and theyre also in the minority. But now the 2019’s have sync3 with 800a, more people bought it that way.

I have a 2018 800a... came from a 2007 4Runner lifted on 33s no leather so everything my truck has on it now is an upgrade and couldn’t be happier! Has some upgrades, front torsen diff , rear view mirror lights, bed lights, tail gate ladder thing, Bedliner spray, keyless start and smiles for days! Oh and I have a rear camera. The other stuff would be unreal but at the time wasn’t fitting my budget and I got the 800a for a steal. Who knows about resale... just drive what you like and make it like you want it.

Did you add the front torsen yourself or was it a factory add on to your 800a? I was thinking about adding it myself, but I don't really think I need it. The way the truck is setup now will be plenty for the kind of off roading I may do.

Came on it from the factory. Thought it would add more value down the road or more heart ache haha.

Dude, we are all hosed on resale. Buy a Gen 1 if you are concerned about resale.

My guess is it won't make much of a difference. Buy what you like best and drive it like you stole it!

Exactly..!! Buy what you like..its your $$$......but....IMHO...Gen 1 all the way....can pick them up for 1/2 the price of new...and I'm lovin every minute I'm behind the wheel of mine..!!
