Adding options not originally installed

I see rebates on the XLTs all the time which put them pretty close in price. In fact I was at the local dealership yesterday and one of the sales guys managed to get someone into an XLT for about the same money as the XL they asked for. Or so that's what I overheard anyway. We might be talking about a "loaded" XL vs. a stripped down "XLT". I don't know.
Hopefully the parts will be lower when I am ready to buy the kit with SYNC3 becoming more and more available.

Adding features after the sale can be cheaper than factory because many times certain things like heated seats are only available in a package of options. Why pay for options you don't want or need?
In some cases the aftermarket equivalent options are cheaper and better quality than factory.

I purchased my new truck last week and it went in this Monday to get things like leather, tonneau cover, front windows tinted, bug shield and Ford rubber floor mats. Looking forward to getting her back tomorrow afternoon!

I added OEM navigation to my truck.
I am also considering to change from column to floor shifter (I already have the flow-through console in my truck). The only thing I haven't figured out yet is if the shifter wiring harness will reach to the new location or if there is a plug&play harness available. I doubt that they make two completely different dash harness just for the shifter.
I did the same swap in my Dodge Ram 2500....was easy because Dodge sells a short harness extension.
