Oh, hell, I can admit it--I'm looking forward to the multi-contour seats for me, too!

There are some neato, gee whiz new features on the truck for sure but there is one in particular that is rather ridiculous.
"Class-exclusive smart trailer tow module The smart trailer tow module shows the driver which lights on a trailer connected to the truck aren’t working, so the driver or a passenger doesn’t have to get out of the truck and walk around the trailer to personally find blown lights."
OMG ! Wow...so you don't have to bother yourself to walk ALL THE WAY around your trailer to inspect your lights. Wow.....just wow. Neato, sure....ridiculous, absolutely.

...acually he's right.It's stupid because you should walk/inspect your setup before you tow and this encourages complacency.

Anyone know if the multi-contour (massaging) seats are available on the lariat (bucket seat option) or are they only on the KR + PL lines?
Granted a lariat vs KR/PL cost the same when decked out... but I prefer the tan interior on the lariat...

Comparing comparably-equipped Lariat 502A to KR 601A I found nearly a $5k difference. That's a lot for those nice seats and 20" wheels...

Some interesting features but how long until the beeping and flashing lights turn into a pain in the A**?
Much like the traction control, that I turn off all the time, the whole lane departure, blind spot thing and park assist with the beeping like the current backing assist which I also always turn off...
As for the individual tire pressure monitoring...its about time!
I have a 2007 Nissan at home that has that, its great but Ford is a little late with this.

Weird on the pricing... a bit more different than I thought...
Pretty sure I priced these about the same and to include:
3.5, 4x4, crew w/ 5.5' bed, max tow, tech/adaptive cruise/active park, bedliner, box side steps, power boards, moonroof, extended range tanks...
lariat comes in at 58.7k, 64.5k for KR and 61.7k for platinum...
I know the lariat would have the 18" vs the other two having 20" wheels... but not sure any other possible differences than the seats (still possible an unknown on lariat level)...

Its also interesting that the 2.7 litre ecoboost is only available on some models, lower end.
