Default bed tie-downs

Does the 2021 come with the same tie-downs in the bed as the previous models?

Are asking about the boxlink system or the lower corner bed tie down loops?
Yes it has the lower corner tie down loops and they all come with the boxlink mounting plates. The actual side bed boxlink cleats are an $80.00 option.

FYI: 5.5' bed front cleats are part way up the side, 6.5' bed they are close to bottom.

that's so lame, that on a 60K truck this isn't standard.. its ford bs. It's been this way since my 1st F-100 in 1976. The rear bumper was an option. Now that I'm thinking about it, the 76 didnt have them either. Jeez! It's a Damm pickup. It should have a bed,and tie downs. Otherwise just buy the Crown Vic.

All F-150s come with tie downs, box link is the part that is optional, and even then only on some trim levels. It is standard on my Lariat, and I think it's standard on 302a XLTs. I am not aware of any F-150 trim levels that don't have bed tie downs standard.

I've got the box link, but I don't have the cleat for them.. maybe my drop in liner is covering them.

You probably just didn't get them, or the dealer didn't install them. I have heard of that happening. I would check under the rear seats and that if your window sticker says "BoxLink". If you have BoxLink noted, I would ask the dealer if you should have received them. Sometimes stuff gets lost during prep.
