Just for the record, some things I have found to my liking on the A3:
Dual airpack brake system
E-brake "On" warning light on the dash
Bed tie downs
Auto tranny
Brake master cylinder real easy to check and fill
Great driver's seat (same old crappy passenger bench though)
Cab sound insulation, engine muffler
Rustproofing
Power assist steering
Belts appear easier to service, have not done them yet
All filters are already spin ons.
Heater is under dash, great defroster (from its appearance, will know soon enough)
Electric wipers, windshield washer (but mine is defunct- very high on the to-do list)
Low air pressure light
Air dryer
CTIS (pluses and minuses)
Super singles and turbelss radials
Improved wheels
Marker lights, back up lights
Headlights seem a little easier to service
ETA forgot these
Mine has the cab reinforcement plate
Better seat belts
Aluminum fuel tank, improved fuel cap
