I thought the autodimming heated mirrors came with the 302A on the 2019. Just looked, they do.

Wow, such interesting perspectives on this topic!
We love our leather, heated/cooled seats. Had to purchase the Lariat to get them.
We got out of sync when purchasing our F-150. Now we need towing mirrors.
I see several posts about power folding towing mirrors.
Can anyone guide me on a part number to order to retrofit on my '18 Lariat? Suppose I could ever find a set of mirrors from a salvage yard?
Had to add the trailer brake controller to our truck. I'm much happier with the OE install in the dash rather than some aftermarket unit hanging under the dash. Plus, there is perceived comfort in the knowledge of the OE parts all working in harmony.

in 2018+ they switched the language to say "manual-folding sideview mirrors with power, heated glass and integrated turn signal indicators + autodimming rearview mirror" The driver side mirror is no longer auto-dimming

Default Auto Running Boards

We have a '16 Platinum FX4 SuperCrew. My wife reminded me yesterday that it was nice to have a running board that sticks out well enough for you to get a Good foot hold. I had to agree since our previous F 150 only had a fixed running board that was slick and only stuck out enough to get 3/4 of the ball of your foot on. Don't have to worry about them dragging the ground when going off road.

Oh, I thought that meant the door mirror. TBH, I've driven many more without, than with, so to me, it doesn't really matter. BUT, heated mirrors are a definite must. Even if I have to get a package that I don't want, if it's the only way to get heated seats/mirrors and remote start, I will. I can always ignore the stuff that I don't care about.

My XLT isn't nearly as loaded as some of these trucks. Coming out of my 2014 to my 2018 I had some options that were hard necessity.

V8
36 Gallon Tank
Tow Package
FX4

Really happy that my truck has the LT tires. Love the look, can't wait to test capabilities.
