I really love my F150 and there is only 2 things I miss from my GMC Sierra. The amount of storage space and the placement of cupholders in the center jump seat. The cup holders should be spaced further apart to allow easier access to drinks and there is pretty much next to no storage in the top or bottom of the jump seat. Even the console option looks to lack in storage space. The slide out cupholders on the floor in front of the jump seat are nearly unreachable and the space reserved for them in the bottom section of the seat takes up any space there that could be used for storage and the upper storage area is not big enough to use for anything bigger than a pocket calculator. The second thing is the selectable AWD setting which allows you to set it there and forget it. I'm afraid I will put it in 4WD to get off my acreage and forget to put it back to 2WD when I get to dry pavement. Other than that I am perfectly happy with it just the way it is.

How about 2 more power outlets on TOP of the dash where I can plug my radar detector and GPS in without wires hanging all over the front of the radio and a/c controls causing me to fumble with them to get out of the way to change temp or channel. Its a safety feature come on Ford be the first to say "wow why didn't we think of that?"

I understand that for what the truck is built for, it is not a good idea, although maybe the lighter engine would help in certain aspects. However, most raptor owners do not take their truck in the desert and are asking for it. It just might be a possiblity.

If you were just running the Baja, gas prices probably aren't as big of a concern as they are for daily drivers. EB may not be optimal for the Baja, but as a daily driver with a mix of off roading, EB seems like a far better choice.

Hopefully the air intakes would keep dust out of the turbos. You don't just get dust in Baja. Anytime it is windy here in NV, there is super fine dust in the air in the city.

I've said this before. I would like to see Ford do a duel exhaust setup similar to what Dodge did.

For me, it would be a grab handle on the "A" pillar driver side. To match the passenger side..

1) Diesel in an f-150
2) AGAIN- power rear window that goes up and down like Toyota
3) A/C seats...... I live in south west Florida...100* and 500% humidity, it'd be nice to sit on ice

I live in southeast texas where the weather is very similar. I love my a/c seats. Definitely recommend them
