Speaking of useless trucks, I actually went with a friend back in 2002 when he purchased a new Ford Lightning. He said yes to every option, including gap insurance and extended warranty; did no bargaining.
Here's a refresher of what useless looks like

Engineers would not rely on a person to flip a switch at the correct moment. Vehicles nowadays manage everything, with the driver simply needing to avoid solid objects. Even that duty is starting to be taken over by the vehicle.
Anyhow, I see no reason why the IMA would be disabled for towing. It would boost the performance specs and make the customer happy.
