[QUOTE="121x, post: 1888253, member: 65782"] And this is exactly my dilemma. The '22 is 95% of the way there for me, including a considerable amount of already completed paint matching (bumpers, skid plate, fender flares, bump pads, hood vents, mirrors, etc). I could do the paint work myself so not a huge deal, but saves the cost and time associated. Likewise it has the black forged aluminum bead lock wheels that I could live with for several months and convert over to running winter tires. Where as the '21 has the brushed aluminum ones that I do not care for. The '22 is a year newer, has considerably less miles and would allow me to forgo purchasing an extended warranty for at least a year, where as the '21 would require a warranty within a few months as it is nearing the end of its factory mileage coverage, increasing the immediate cost by a few thousand. The only real difference between the two is the wheels (personal preference obviously), the '21 has pro power onboard (could take it or leave it), and the tail gate applique on the '21. And then you raise a good point with respect to Ford cheapening the interior components on the '22 versus the '21. But would they be missed?! Out of curiosity, anyone missing not having the temp display on the dial? I like that on my 250. What is lacking with the ambient lighting? The cup holders like my 250? I realize I am nit picking, BUT I intending to keep this truck for 3-4 years, so it is important I make the most concise decision that I can and not regret it. Anyone happen to know the chances of finding a GEN 3 tailgate at a wrecker, even if it had to be repainted? [/QUOTE]
