I'm sure he just hit the wrong Key and didn't proof read. Easily done! but was still funny.

The way it reads now is fx4 is less than all others...Of course us Lariat owners would be able to figure that out.... To the op, I bought my Lariat back in September and love it Nothing against the FX4, because that would have been my 2nd choice, the ride is a little smoother on the lariat than it was on the FX4 I test drove. FX4 has the stiffer suspension for off road. If you're gonna be doing a lot of off road then I'd say get the FX4, If you're using it more on the roads then the Lariat has a slightly less rigid suspension.

I love my XLT. Power locks and windows... air conditioning... Manual transfer case that wouldn't get fried... j/k
I also wouldn't want the center console or leather seats, my dad has the Fx4 and it rides great, but what use is a crewcab that seats 5 people? and that leather is coooold in the winter!

Did or do they ever make a FX4 without the center shift console?

FSU FX4

i have a 06 lariat, and love it. If you have the money go for the KR!, but i also heard the fx4's are an inch higher than the reg 4x4s. not real sure though

Where'd you hear the FX4s are taller? They may have come with a taller tire package, but I haven't seen anything suspension wise.

Personally not a fan of the KR interior, I'd rather have the Lariat and the cash.

Ya'll left out the XL!

As my '06 came from Ford:

4.6 v8
8.8 rear axle
rubber floors
vinyl seats
manual windows/locks
no cruise
floor shift 4x4
scab windows don't roll down

and I've noticed it sits about 1-2" higher than a similar xlt. (i parked next to a truck just like mine today, but xlt, and the top of his bed was level with the top of my taillight) I guess all those fancy cushy things weigh it down a little
