Default 2014's are out!!

I saw my first 2014 F150, today. It's at Gentilini Ford in Woodbine N.J.
Woodbine is in the southern part of N.J. south of Atlantic City. Other than the 2014 window sticker the Lariat looked like a 2013.

They could have introduced LED tails at least.

Why would they do that when they're redesigning the truck entirely for 2015?

Just to add something new. If they are the same as 13s, there really is no incentive to buy a 14 over a cheaper 13, while they are still available. Not to mention, I'd buy some stock LEDs

Same reason they put hids on the 13's, because we the customer want them.... Oh, and they look sweet as hell!

True, but I guess they are using 2014 to clear out the existing parts. I'm hoping and praying that the dealer will still have a 2013 equipped to my liking on the lot within the next 2 months, otherwise I'm waiting another 3 months after that to factory order a 2014 when they have good rebates, regardless of the fact that there really isn't any difference between the two. I don't care if the 2015 drives itself, I'm never touching Ford's "latest and greatest" disasters again.

I'd be buying a set of OEM LED tails for mine if they did it. As near as I can tell so far, it's not a matter of picking the best aftermarket lights, it's a matter of picking the least bad option.

Yep. You're better off getting a couple sets of LED bulbs rather than dealing with the gaudy, overpriced aftermarket stuff.

I'm not sure LED tail lights are such a great idea in snowy climates. LEDs don't get hot enough to melt the snow off themselves and when you are driving in snow it builds up on the tailgate. Sure, they look cool and all.
