Seen it to, It intrigues me because I like the fact it doesn't have paddle shift levers.

I've heard some complain about the red stripe but I for one love the look.

That would look great on a SE if you could get it heated. After having a heated steering wheel I will never get another vehicle without one.

Why do you not want the paddle shifters? They are awesome... I just did mine a few weeks ago and they are amazing!!!

My last two vehicles came with paddle shifters from the factory & I never used them. I would hit them by accident & trigger the shifting & have to pull over to disengage them PITA. Just not for me..

I replaced my Lariat steering wheel with the Raptor wheel that's heated and has the paddles. If I didn't want the paddles (which I do/did) and didn't care about the heated function (which I do) and I wanted to replace my existing wheel with an upgrade, I'd buy the Limited steering wheel.

For the F-150, the paddle shifters do not engage "manual mode". You ave to manually shift into "M" on the shifter. Just hitting the paddle shifters by accident will not put it in manual mode.

And, the Raptor wheel paddle shifters are so big and heavy it would be next to impossible to hit them by accident.
