Front window defrosters, like the back windows (on cars) have. The heater vents don't work fast enough. I wish someone would have figured this out by now.

Or at lease Paddle shifting.
Yeah, that's really the only other thing I wish it had - some way to manually set the gear. I actually use it on my current vehicle a lot so I don't accidentally speed in school zones. I had my fill of manual transmissions with my old pickup.

Have you ever tried putting the air conditioner on when it's really bad? IIRC some cars do this automatically.

Air conditioner? In the middle of winter? 10 below with a strong wind from the north? Or better an ice storm/ rain/sleet?

Also that last drive mode used would stay activated.
And cruise control would stay powered up and ready to use.
And USB ports would be hot when key off.
And seat belt alarm would give me a break!
And 225 tires would be more truck style than model-A.
And hood lift cylinders.
And all those strangers wouldn't keep me so long in the parking lot.

My car has manual HVAC controls. You set the fan to blow through the windshield defroster vents, crank the heat to max and hit the a/c button. An air conditioner is also a dehumidifier so it sucks the moisture out of the air. Dry air de-fogs the windshield faster. Once the heater core warms up it really doesn't affect the temperature. Until then, that's what a warm sweater and gloves are for.

No way. After living with a daily driver 5-speed over the past 12 years I can say with assurance that if the Mav came standard with a 6-speed I would upgrade to the 8-speed auto in a heart beat.

A 6 speed manual transmission.. Yep. This truck would be so fun to drive, AWD, turbo, 6 speed.. Man…
I like it now, but that would definitely make me love it later. No mother-in-law assist, just feet, hands, engine and autonomous decisions. Those were the days.....
