I would say yes. It costs less than 1K to add it from the factory and when you go to the dealer most will have it already. For me paying that extra 1K is worth the piece of mind to know that when I tow something heavy my Tans isn't going to overheat making me change the oil every time I tow and potentially burn up the trans on long hauls.

Also I believe when you get the trailer package, is the only time you get the wires in the vehicle for the trailer brake controller. This is really important because without it you will not stop quickly at all. If it wasn't for the brake controller on the trip to Texas, we would have crashed into some stupid drivers in front of us.

I bet you couldn't wait to get to that number.
It might be (I'm watching on PS3). Could also be your router. Every so often, I have to unplug it for 20 secs, then plug it back in to reset.

Lol, it didn't cross my mind until it was at 80081. I was looking forward to when it was going to hit 77,777 but no one else was in the car when I yelled "JACKPOT!"

or if we move back East we will need at least one vehicle with 4 wheel drive.
yup, making sure to add the 4 wheel drive to the truck.

Personally couldn't drive around a truck that big everyday. Parking a 1500 is sometimes difficult enough in a normal parking space, so I couldn't even imagine the 3500
