The one dealer option you wish you got/glad you have...
 
So we trade in my wife's car for a new PGP xA & I drive the thing around for a few weeks...whaddaya know, I find myself trading my [V6 auto] Mustang for an 06 BOP xB last night. :D


I'd planned on driving it away bone stock when I take delivery next week...rims & Eibach ProKit to follow.


Is there one option you wish you had sprung for at the dealer, or are glad you did?

Glad I got the leather steering wheel. I love it, and those airbags always did scare me.
Wish I would have gotten the cruise control, but figure I install it myself later.

stl_tc_king 08-10-2005 12:42 AM

I don't have an xB, but for me cruise control is a MUST!

Kristina 08-10-2005 12:46 AM

I to wish I had gotten cruise control

Tomas 08-10-2005 12:55 AM

Don't have it, wish I did: Rostra Cruise Control.

hotbox05 08-10-2005 12:56 AM

Wish i couldda got , sunroof , leather , and cruise. I wasnt offered any. just to see cars leave the same dealer after i bought mine with even more installed. argh. oh well. now i'll never get the sunroof or leather too much to not have financed.

Box916 08-10-2005 01:05 AM

Cruise control indeed...

Max 08-10-2005 01:10 AM

I am glad I got the CAI for powertrain warranty. I wish my dealer offered a sunroof and I wish I got the leather steering wheel.

I have an option I wish I didn't get...dealer installed factory oem crappy foglights. They do not fit right and either the dealers tell me (been to three so far) "thats the way they all fit" or "never seen that problem before".
I do wish we got the cruise control though. We travel alot (been from Boston to Lafayette, LA and now north of San Fransisco since May) so the cruise would have helped even just to allow me to move my foot every now and then.

If you are handy, install the cruise yourself and save money on a better control. For the xB, the one must-have is the cargo liner. It protects the rear carpet and rear seat backs. Everything else you can buy elsewhere cheaper and put in yourself.

For personal tastes, I like my Scion floor mats.

slipknot490 08-10-2005 02:13 AM

I do agree...the cargo liner is awesome...thick heavy canvas (with a light rubber back for waterproofing I guess)....great option...Wish my XRS had this

Keitaro 08-10-2005 02:18 AM

I too agree about the cargo liner (bought without dealer option). I've placed my 26" mountain bike inside and it holds up very well. The only option I got is the cargo cover...dont bother with this thing. Keep it bone stock...although if cruise is an option and seems reasonably price, I would go for it.

Rayman 08-10-2005 03:33 AM

The RS 1.0 option!!!!!! :P

TheComputerMan 08-10-2005 03:42 AM

definatly cruise control. now im looking at spending another 300 on it when i could have gotten it cheaper at purchase time. oh well, no biggy.

Minttoast 08-10-2005 04:03 AM

wishi had gotten the car lowered.

glad i got floor mats because i never realized how dirty my shoes are.

frday13 08-10-2005 04:18 AM

i'm getting cruise installed tomorrow...woohoo!!!!

joescionwv 08-10-2005 05:04 AM

slipknot did you get an xb or tc? if you got an xb and you think your fogs suck I will buy them from you if you can give me a good deal ... I wish that I would have gotten a factory wing put on my car . Cosmetic I know but I see them now and Im like what the freak. I kick my self everytime

sarcasmkillsme 08-10-2005 05:04 AM

I wish I had had the silver leather steering wheel installed and financed...

slipknot490 08-10-2005 05:12 AM

I have the xB. Apparently there is a problem with the fogs and AEM CAI combo. I think I fixed the problem with the clearance but they still flop around and are pretty much useless other than looks. I can't sell them though...my block off plates are in storage in Louisiana and I'm in California. Sorry joescionwv...I have to keep them.

joescionwv 08-10-2005 05:36 AM

lol its cool whenever you go back if you still are intreasted I KNOW I will be what color is your xb?
