Good ideas here. Would love to see them. Especially the digital speedometer display like in the explorers etc.

My '09 ram had the in floor storage in the backseats that you can remove etc. (Sure made it easy to dump out the water after your ice melts that was keeping your road sodas cold!)

Both of those ideas are also on the Chrysler Town and Country minivans. The stow and go seating tubs can be used to hold grocieries.

1.) a turbo boost gauge in the truck apps screen
2.) factory selectable tunes (towing, performance , economy). Being able to change tunes on the fly would be nice and keep not have to worry about the factory warranty.

A heated wheel would be nice too. I would also like to see the psi for each tire. Again, my wife's T&C has this feature.

5.0L EcoBoost
UpFitter switches. I will put my own in, but would be nice if the F-150 had UpFitters like the Super Duty does.

That heated wheel would've been nice this morning! Who left the freezer door open?

Don't the newer-than-mine F150s have the tire monitoring?

Yep...for sure. Woke up here this morning, -32c + windchill brought it to -35c or -36c.

Just for reference -40f and -40c same temp

I would like some sort of storage in the back seat area. the little bucket where the jack is isn't big enough for anything. also like something I could put in my console to hold small loose stuff. I have the xlt and really liked the tray that I had in my fx4 console.

1.) Drain plugs in the center console for when the ice melts. I am getting tired of getting out the shop vac and towels.

2.) Bottle opener where the useless cubby hole is just right of the center instrument panel.
