Thanks for all the replies and input. I've been driving F150's for over 10 years and never ordered anything over the XLT - all of them had the outside temp gauge. This is my first SD. Ordering the FX4 pkg, I assumed it would at least have a freakin outside temp readout somewhere. Nevertheless, as much as this irks the crap out of me, for some reason, the more I drive this truck, the more I seem to be forgetting about not having the readout...

This is me while driving this truck ----->

Thanks for you time,
Ed
