Now a days, rare means whatever the dealer decides is popular. Most people do not have the patience to wait for an ordered vehicle to get exactly what they want. They settle for what's on the lot. If a dealer can shave a few bucks off the sale price by not having a limited slip do you think he cares that it might come in handy later? It's all about I have it cheaper and it's in stock now.

I have to order my trucks since I like the stick shift and carpet delete options.

This reminds of an old joke.

Q: What is the difference between medium and rare?
A: Six inches is medium, eight inches is rare.

Ya I wish I had the option of ordering my truck it would also have a 6 speed. But I do think the the orignal owner of the truck did order it from Ford as it has many options that a "standard" XLT package wouldnt have

Mobile 1 Syn

I added the 2nd bottle of friction modifier to the Mobile 1 Synthetic 75w-140 and almost all of the chatter is gone. Every now and then I feel a little something. The limited slip worked in grass so...

Anyway, just FYI concerning Mobile 1 Syn.
