new dodge cigar lighter missing

From : mr burns

Q: just picked up a new dodge ram truck and noticed the cigar lighter was missing from the socket. i did not get the smokers package and was there fore told that this is the way it is if you dont have that package. seems funny to me that the receptacle is there fully powered but there is no lighter in it or even some type of cover to finish off the receptacle like the power accessory plug has. is this what i should expect to see brian dodge ram 08 sxt. .
