It only comes with the upgraded mirror option, that shows the temp in the mirror. In job 2 trucks it also comes with the rear backup mirror/view screen.

Yep, for some weird reason they decided to put it on the center dash with it's own little button instead of the message center.

Sorry, didn't read the full thread before I posted, but here's my $0.02 worth.

With the dual climate control you have to push the "EXT" button to get it. It does not show all the time. When you are showing the exterior temp, the settings for the zones are suppressed. I wish it was always on for a quick curiosity glance.
