Any of you have this?

I just found out today my truck has a package called "uControl". Basically it means I have to adjust my mirrors on my own, manually lift the bar to move the seat back and forth. Adjust my speed by pressing down on my right foot or letting off. Also, this package cannot be combined with power locks or power windows, so it removes them and adds the deluxe window crank handle instead. Combined with the navigation package, it comes with a Rand McNally's USA 2009 roadmap. Best of all is you get to manually change the gears with an extra pedal called a "clutch"

to any other XL guys out there

Thanks man I found 2 sets but one the guy didn't want to part it out(idk why). And the others at a yard were 150 but for now I'm not willing to pay that.

For now I'm just gonna run with just the remotes for a while till I see where I'm going to be at cash wise this semester

I searched long and hard to avoid all that. Only things missing are power rear sliding window, heated seats, and my favorite color black.

But I do remember driving my no a/c, stick, manual brake, manual steering road runner (that someone put a super small steering wheel on), it was great fun at the time (82).
