Default Which model???

I will be buying a f-150 in April most likely a 09. About 95% fx4 not overly familiar with the trucks , what are the major differences between the platinum and the fx4 luxury??? I also want to put a lift kit on the truck anywhere from a 3" to 6" would also appreciate any advice on this mod. Lastly for now also want to upgrade exhaust banks or flowmaster??? Thanks can't wait for the truck.

Here's the 09 Brochure: http://www.meadowlandford.com/2009%20F150_brochure.pdf

There's also the Raptor if you're looking at off-road modification, it is not shown in the brochure. It may not have come until the 2010 model year though.
