Hello all, Getting ready to order what I want for the first time. Thanks to this site I have read and learned a ton of info. Never knew about x-plan (which I qualify for) and many of the details of actually ordering a vehicle instead of just buying off the lot.
I do tow a camper 6-8 times a year and use the back to haul lots of "stuff". Live in Texas and do drive in some moderate off road conditions pretty regularly. Also, I tend keep my vehicles for a long time (8-10 yrs min.)
Below is my list. I know each vehicle is an individual preference but I would really appreciate if I am leaving anything out that you consider a "must have" or a "not worth the price" and with the options I am ordering I should just go to the Lariat. I have always just bought white trucks but I am leaning towards going out of my norm and getting the Blue Flame...thoughts? Thanks in advance for your input.

Congrats
My favorite color, and what I originally ordered, but i upgraded to a platinum which doesn't come in blue flame .
You might consider Max tow , which adds a few more great options, definitely a bargain.
Try building the same truck in Lariat trim, might be comparable in price because some of the XLT options come standard on Lariat packages.
You can get a blue flame Lariat sport, and it comes with the Sport buckets in black leather........that makes a great looking package

Very nice build. $45441 by my math. Do you need the FX4 package and trailer-brake for how often you tow? Taking away those things is only about a $500 difference so you might as well keep them. I like it!

I think just upping it to a Lariat Sport 4x4 with 501A increases the price without selecting any of the tow options he wanted.

If he were to choose the 502A package it would raise the price by about $3k before selecting any additional towing options, i.e. FX4, Trailer Tow, Tow mirrors, etc.

Thanks. And Yes. The build on the lariat with the 501A adds about 3K once options are selected and 502A with the options I want adds about 6-7K. Of course both of those Lariats add other options that might be nice to haves...hmmm
