Thanks Amante
It is amazing how we all have our viewpoint. No wonder dealers can't figure what to order. I TURN DOWN a F350 because it had cab clearance light (ok, it also had a few other items I didn't want/need). 
Just out out of curiosity, why would you and mulelady order them?

Clearance Lights
Tall Paul.....I just think clearance lights are sexy looking ! They also might make me more visable to traffic...for safety . Since I always custom order my trucks, I don't have to turn one down for some accessory it does or doesn't have....at that kind of money, I hope to love every little detail.

polarbear,
Pulled into our company parking lot this morning and there was a brand-new, 2005 350 CC XLT PSD SB! Its going to one of our managers in Montana. (This really is the pregnant lady syndrome!) I did have to go out and start the truck and smell the new truck smells!

Wait to order any from the factory until my order clears.

Actually, I appreciate the thread and the comments- I've only been doing this 30 years and am still somewhere on the learning curve. The secret is, customers typically have far more to offer than other dealers or even the manufacturer.
