Mixing packages...
Hey
I've been reading the forum for a while but just joined recently
I am looking to ditch my 07 and order a new one, Likly will wait for the 16
My question is mixing the packages, for example On a lariet I would want the sport package (to give the "carbon fiber" panels rather then the fake wood panels on the inside but I don't want the painted front and rear bumpers I want the chrome ones,
Same with the grill, I like the 5 bar grill rather then the 3 bar that comes with the lariet chrome package.
If I was to go into the dealer to build are they able to make those changes.
I've test drove a couple but just started to put the pcs together to start to build one, I haven't talked to a dealer about building because I don't want to lead the sales people on until I'm ready
Thanks
David

Do a Google search for the ordering guide for the 2015 F-150 to see what your options are.
I have a Lariat and since I don't like chrome I ordered the sport appearance package so that everything is either body color (blue flame) or the dark anthracite. And then I ordered the FX-4 package which is now just skid plates and shocks instead of being a stand-alone version of the F-150 like it was in previous years.
There are some options and colors that you can't get on certain models. Check the guide to see what goes with what.

I bought an XLT Sport and mixed and matched a few things that I liked from different trim levels. I have the PTM mirrors that a Lariat/KR have, but the Platinum grille and wheels. Also the power boards like the KR/Platinum have. Cloth interior but I'm happier with cloth.
All of this was done after I purchased the truck, since you git what you git and you don't throw a fit.
Different parts are easy to find and you can oftentimes sell the part that you replaced. I sold my XLT Sport wheels and tires, in the process of selling the sport running boards and I can probably off load the XLT Sport grille. I won't recover all of the costs but that's the price you pay when doing these things.
