I wouldn't buy a truck with a sunroof personally. They can leak overtime so they require maintenance and they make the ceiling hot in the summer. A hole in the roof, is a hole in the roof. Just got ride of the dormers on the roof of my house for same reason.

Sunroofs are nice when driving around town. but when highway driving, I always thought it was noisy and annoying. I always end up closing all the windows and turn on the A/C.

My last few vehicles all came with them because usually loaded up.
My 09 tahoe that i put 150k miles on- I very rarely used it. Seems like the sun is always shining in my eyes when open.
First thing i always do is tint them w 5% so it darkens them up. As I did w the '19 Denali I just got.
The wife's X5 5.0 has the full panoramic roof. She uses it occasionally. Me not at all.
I will say i have Not noticed any squeaking in the BMW. Could be the because the Tunes are cranked and the Revs are usually Up there when I drive

My old dually did not have a sunroof and my new one does. I love having it for two reasons - nice for airflow even just tilted up and I like the glass panel to let light in. Personal preference really.

I'd say a matter of taste, I love sunroof's, if I'm looking a couple vehicles and one has a roof and one does not...leaning quickly to the one that does. I have had to many to count and never had a issue with any...now that being said I owned a sunroof shop for years and we installed them(pop ups, sliders, full electric, rag tops, even T-Tops) and did lots of service work, as nobody in town wanted to mess with them. They are like anything else, common sense useage...open them up every month or so, and keep a eye out in the water channels for pine needles dirt crap etc, thats what causes majority of leaks, clogged drain tubes. The electric ones do not seal per say and water has to drain out of all 4 corners. Back to original question, If I were ordering trucks, if it were a loaded LTZ I would be ordering most if not all with one...I think not having one would be a deal breaker for more than not. If it was a lower optioned one would not...
