Welcome. Spec it for yourself. However, if there is a must not, I'd say, must not load up a T with options. Keep it light and focused.

Large fuel tank (because it's cheap), smoking and storage packages (because they're free), and at least Bose stereo. beyond that nothing else mandatory.
Me personally? I'd opt for either standard seats with rear seats added or go for full buckets. Then I'd also add rear axle steering, but again that's personal choice.

Wondering if the lift package makes sense. We have a lot of speed bumps near the house and a few entrances to parking lots have messed me up to date. Seems "Anti T" building packages but some are quite practical.
Big debate is rear seat or not. Being free wouldn't that give the option to take kids now and again? It's not a need but a consideration.

Rear seats add 25lbs of weight and provide a thick layer of insulation between you and the engine cabin effectively drowning out some of the engine noise. I'd only get rear seats if I had kids.

Ok.....first spec
That is a blatant lie....1st spec which I may actually go with...let me know your thoughts. I added lift and 360 view as it will be used on local roads and lots of speed bumps and other "hazards" and upgraded to Bose.
