The **Work Truck (WT)** is built for no-nonsense durability with a standard 2.7-liter TurboMax, vinyl seating, steel wheels, and a simple infotainment interface. It's ideal for fleets, contractors, and drivers who prioritize capability and easy maintenance.

The **Custom** enhances the WT with more style and everyday comfort: body-color bumpers and grille, 20-inch alloy wheels, a larger infotainment display with smartphone connectivity, power windows, and remote keyless entry. The interior is more refined without sacrificing utility.

Choose WT if you want a hardworking truck with minimal frills. Choose Custom if you blend work with personal use and value a bit more comfort and modern connectivity. Both deliver the same strong foundation and trailering technology-it's about the interior refinement and exterior polish you prefer.
