The only thing I don't have on my '12 FX4 that I wish I did, is the Auto 4X4 but it wasn't an option. I added the OEM HID's later. The FX4 look for me was the biggest factor.

Got a price on a 5.0 today and it's about $1500 less than the EB (rebates, ect)... didn't realize it would be that much different. Not going to start a EB/5.0 debate here (so please, nobody start one-ha!), but I think for that I may go 5.0 this time. Not towing much but we'll see...

The AWD was a major factor for me getting me into at least a Lariat.

I think the eco is worth the extra bucks but it was only around $800 to do it when I bought two months ago. I have had eco before and the only complaints were peoples necks popping when I gained 500' in one half mile while acclerating from 30 mph to 65 mph.

I am not a big fan of the chrome or the 20s but my truck had everything else I wanted.
