- Better headlights across ALL models (don't play games with safety).
- Improved Homelink range (don't want to wait until I'm at the driveway to work).
- Why is the Seat warmer on when there's no passenger??? It knows not to enable the airbag!
- Allow additional remote rear camera option (for a trailer). Switch to a remote camera when hooked to a trailer.
- OEM Curb feelers. (Ok, maybe not this one)

Ford needs an F150 version of what Toyota does with the Tacoma TRD Pro. Something between the cushy, low sprung standard 4x4 configurations and the Raptor. The FX4 package just doesn't cut it for those who want off-road capability without the extreme specs and cost of the Raptor. The other manufacturers do a better job at this; the Ram Rebel comes to mind.

Also, Ford definitely needs to rip off the 110v outlet in a covered recessed box from the Tacoma.

+1 for the 110vac in the bed, but I kinda like the Ram boxes.
2007 Suburban, new motor at 75K. Was covered by warranty and a result of the sylinder shutdown stuff.....

For the love of god more modern headlights. I am not even talking about brightness. To sell a 50k truck that still uses halogen bulb with reflector lenses is insane. The Silverados basically come standard now with a projector housing and LED DRL strip.

If it weren't for the option of a center console shifter and the far superior power train choices, I would not have bought an F150 simply because of the antiquated headlights. At this price point it is inexcusable.

I would love to see Sync 4 have a new feature, with a big ASK button on the dash. The new owner of the $60,000 vehicle would not have to read the manual (a true hardship), or post on a forum, but simply push the button and say "Sync, can you tell me how to put the truck into drive?" Or, "Sync, I want to open my window. Is there a way to do that without breaking the glass?"

And it would also be able to answer "Why is this feature (fill in name of feature) offered/not offered?" The two answers would be "because we said so" and "because we don't care what you want".

These and other difficult questions could be easily answered by technology.

If the truck owner was to stupid to be able to push the ASK button, and simply shouted questions to the truck, then at the earliest opportunity the truck would simply drive off a steep cliff.

Proximity sensors on front corners would be really nice when backing trailers out of tight spots.

Rick, you'd be bored out of your mind if this came to fruition.

I agree - Would totally welcome an upgraded FX4 package more in line with the Pro or Rebel.

Cameras that you could use when driving. I would love to be able to look back at my trailer when driving to make sure the bikes are OK.

Cameras that will loop record to a USB. Why have to add a dash cam when we already have four of them on the truck.

A much improved GUI so that options can be turned on and off without having to see the dealer or use Forscan.

Door latches that work. How hard can it be :-)
