You didn’t
You didn’t pay enough Nick.
I've driven in plenty of extreme conditions, I know I don't need yet another nanny to hold my hand and perform a task I should be capable of, but different strokes.
Join a forum and see if others have pirated parts from ones that do, might be able to rig something together.
I have it on my 18 king ranch and it is great!! Nice for when the wife takes the truck.

Ironically, my son has my 2012 Sierra in Pensacola. He said it was a brutal 60F just now
Oh, I know. But the new ones don't last either. As of last May, I put a set in the warranty admin's truck. I since quit, walked in that shop for parts two weeks ago and guess what. Trucks on the rack getting the third update on Iwe's.
As for the packaging/options, it really pissed me off as well. Used to be able to check the box and build what you want. In this profit driven world of global economics, not the case anymore. Less about customer satisfaction and more about numbers for stock holders.
Lol.
I wanted LED lights on my new lariat. It was a group that added like $7K to the price with crap I didn’t want. I have normal lights.

Uhh, no. That has basically ZERO bearing on why GM has sold trucks up North. Everyone sells trucks up here regardless of 4WD system. This is one of the dumbest ****ing threads I've ever seen.
I'm gonna laugh when the cost of parts, labor, and fixing your **** ups puts you over the cost of a Lariat.
I laugh at your ignorance, I sold GM and used auto 4x4 as a very effective sell point when comparing points against Ford. That you don't think it matters is irrelevant, people who have driven both know which system is better. Most winters it isn't a big deal, but some winters, it is.
To Trade my XLT to a Lariat is $25,000, since Ford holds Lariats near and dear.
To swap in a auto 4x4 is a Ford transfer case, a Ford electronic module and a Ford switch. Then use FORSCAN and tell the computer you switched modules. Please tell me how this will **** up?
When compared to what I spend on my GT, that is a peanuts project.
Not sure why butt hurt is flowing, the parts are all Ford, and Ford offers it on the Lariat, LOL.
Off topic, but since forscan was mentioned. Who else reads forscan as foreskin in their head?
There is no winter where it's a big deal if you aren't a lazy ****. Period. 4A is not a better system. Period. Know why? Excessive complexity.
And you call me ignorant? Tell me, where did you get your mechanical engineering degree?
There is no butt hurt flowing. There is, however, lots of pointing and laughing and the lengths people will go to be lazy. I bet if you're remote control broke, you'd be too lazy to get up and turn on the TV yourself.
Does the forscan plug have a rubber boot?
I scoff at your insult and belittle your ME degree! Everyone knows engineers suck at sales! How is substituting parts off an already existing model adding complexity? Now you could make a fair point if you could point out that the Ford auto 4x4 system is horrible and prone to excessive break downs.
Yes indeed, I had a deal done on a leftover 2018 Sierra SLT, but I just couldn't give up the 3.5 TT and the 38 gallon gas tank. Worth some effort to keep those 2 things, and the Ford looks better.
