My bad.

The key pad is one of the major things I love about Ford....and I'm glad they went back to the push buttons rather than the invisible ones of last year.

White screw 5.0/3.73 sport package 302a fx4 and as many options as I could justify to my wife lol. Being from Canada, as soon as I mentioned heated seats it gave me points for other add ons.

Quick question, I was tempted by the built-in ramps but dealer was unsure as to availability, does anyone have them????

Yes mine as well has the remote start. Lariat is nice, cant justify the upgrade to leather price (hint cant afford the lariat). Both my kids are in daycare and it aint cheap lol


Ok dont want to stray away from the helpfull hints and tricks (tricls) so here's another question, i was reading the backrest fold down portion of this thread, does it fold down like the older 2003 supercrews which sort of made an area for an air mattress to fit and use when I go hunting or fishing??? If so, im in love already with a truck I dont have!

The rear seat backs fold down. Passenger side has a pull strap next to the door, driver side has a metal peg you need to pull up on behind the seat. Kind of a PITA until you know where it is. There's some room there if you don't have the sub package, and the passenger side has the jack and some room.

I tend to fold the bottom portion up, and shove things up behind the seat back. lol

I guess more specifically im wanting to know is that once its folded down, is it still hinged and the backrest is flat on the floor and you can put weight on the backrest or is it simply removed and loose if you will? Hard to explain, but could I sleep on the folded down backrest? If that makes sense.

It's still hinged, not removable I don't think. I didn't try. I think it's more of maintenance access to the sub on the driver side. Passenger side much easier, obviously to access the jack and tire iron. The seats fold up and give enough flat floor space you might be able to sleep there! I can't believe the amount of room there!
