Excessive attention to details
Is there such a thing?
I was watching the GL shut off its interior lights to make sure the map lights are off. I noticed there is a sequence where overhead lights then ambient and finally door handle lights dim into dark. Nice touch to graduate this effect, but I bet many owners will never notice that these sets of lighting features go off separately from each other. I certainly don't care if all lights were on the same circuit.

I can't say that I ever turn the interior light off in any of my past and present cars. That makes sense though.

I can think of a couple of details they missed...
1. Can't program rear DVD system from the front seat (so if your kids are young.. You have to stand outside the back door and set it up... Sucks)
2. Can't set the third zone temp from the front control like you could on the 164 body.
3. Takes to long for the dipping passenger mirror to come up after you are out of reverse.
Still love the truck though.

4. You have to hold the buttons for the seat setting instead of one touch and the seat moves to the memory spot.
5. every time the rear seats are moved to access the third row.. the front seats move up and forward to accommodate the folding part of the rear top cushion... why don't they return when the rear seat is positioned back... instead (see issue #4)
