I have the 101A package. It wasn't my first choice, but it was hard to find a Screw with 6.5 bed in my area. It worked out because I used the money I saved from not buying a higher trim model on an ATV and dirt bike to go with it. Next time I will custom order.
Yes a buddy has a 2016 Supercrew 157 that has the exact same specs as mine except if also had a 5.0 (std in the 157), 36 gal tank, Camera and Pwr Sliding R. Window with Defogger and Privacy Glass.They're even both white. He would have preferred a Chrome Package but couldn't find one in a 157. Had to have the 6.5 bed.
One of my pet peeves on the XL is you had to order $525 Power Tow Mirrors and $450 Power Slider to get heated mirrors and R. Window Defogger.
They won't let you order the mirrors and r. window defogger from the 301A which would be much cheaper. That is unless you have access to Fleet Sales then you can alacarte both.
The armrest storage may or may not be available through fleet sales I haven't checked.
I also think $445 for the 36 gal tank is rediculous. The last time I ordered the large tank it was $50.
Shortime, am I reading your signature correctly? Did you buy a Sport then put chrome bumpers on it? Can I take it it was cheaper to buy a Sport with the 20" Wheels then change bumpers instead of buying the wheels and tires?
I original thought I was going to be satisfied with my 2016 XL Sport as it came from the factory. I was used to having a few of the other trim level options so I found someone locally that wanted painted bumpers. I also like the look and the difference in the ride with the OEM 20" Platinum wheels and tires ($1000). After doing that I found it hard to stop changing things like the chrome mirror caps and chrome grill along with the Line-X bed liner and the BakFlip F1 bed cover. The interior will probably be next. . . .
I have a 101A It also has tow pkg which includes the camera and back up assist. The 36 gal tank and trailer brake controller are the other two options. It is a 2.7 4wd so those are also technically options.
It has about everything I need. I really just wanted a 4wd XL with the tow package and didn't really want the tank or trailer brake controller. This was the only one I found locally. Looks like a work truck order or a cheap tow set up. Not bad for $30k. Just want to tow a 5klbs boat.
I may add some window tint on the back windows. I kind of like the steel wheels and they are cheap to replace if I ever damage one.
I have the 101A XL SCREW. I had to add the heated mirrors as its really needed since there is no rear defrost. After that I started finding XLT owners selling their OEM parts fairly cheap so been picking up a few upgrades along the way. Heated mirrors and backup Camera should have been standard on the truck but over all XL with 101A works fine for me
