that drives up the cost of the truck.
you can get king or crew cab (2 options),
xe se or le (3 options),
9 colors (9 options),
2 interior colors (2 options),
4x4 vs 4x2 (2 options),
bench seat vs captain (2 options),
3 sound systems (3 options),
Big Tow or not (2 options),
Offroad or not (2 options),
navigation or not (2 options).
that's a total of 2 x 3 x 9 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 10368 DIFFERENT trucks nissan must manufacture to satisfy you.
throw in VDC and side curtain air bags, and you have 4 times as many combinations.
you fail to realize manufacturing costs if you think it's practical to have that many different options to meet the "need" of customers.
customers need to quit *****ing when they have to pay more for things they dont want. automobile manufactures cant design a car around one person. wake up!
