I was surprised to find that HID's weren't even an option on my 2011. So lets have those but with self aiming. They are awfully blinding when I see them on another truck that's got a load in the bed.
Front bumper distance sensors would be nice and some type of factory storage, those under seat bins on the Ram are nice.
Once I get I truck I'm sure I will come up with some others.

The ecoboost in the reg. cab short bed, the return of the step side bed, and most importantly a manual transmission with a real clutch pedal. Even if its only available via special order, at least give us the option

The remove start plug & play module does this. You set the settings in the gauge LCD display. You can set it to automatic and it will turn the heat on below a set temp, and the A/C on above a set temp, I believe the manual says it will also active heated/cooled seats if equipt.
Or you can set it to use whatever your last setting was, so if you had the A/C on it'll be on, or if you had the Head on it'll be on.

1. HID's
2. Boost gauge on EcoBoost
3. Drivers side A-piller grab handle. The F-150 is the only truck on the market to not have this. It has a grab handle at EVERY other door, WTF?
4. Make the factory step bars come out from under the truck more. They are 1/2 way under the truck and you can bairly step on them. Why would you do that? They should also be dropped down a little more so they arn't 1/2" under the floor board. It's almost like ford put them their for looks rather then function.
5. Better NAV option (Ford should go to a system like Chrysler's MyGig system, where all the radio's are touch screen Double Din and you can just swap out the non-NAV MyGig with a NAV-MyGig plug-n-play if your vehical didn't come with it from the factory).
6. Better rear seat entertainment option(s).
7. Rear HVAC Vents with out center console shifter. (SuperCrew with out rear HVAC vents? Seriously?)
8. Instead of door keypad a smart key system would be better, but I'm not a fan of "Push button" starts (WAY too many problems). It Would be nice to have the key fob's with out the actual cut key, (Like Chryslers).
9. Electric tail gate lock, either a dedicated button on the key fob or maybe press the lock/unlock button 3 times to lock/unlock the tail gate.
10. FACTORY performance parts, Ford has had a Ford Performance/Ford Racing devision longer then any other company has has a performance devision and yet they fail to make any use out of it. If they would design factory performance parts of ALL their vehicals (Not just mustangs), then customers wouldn't have to worry about "Voiding their warrenty" by using aftermarket performance parts. Ford drops the ball huge in this area. With their current use of Ford Performance/Ford Racing, they might as well close those devisions all together. Total waste in my opinion.
11. More/Better wheel options, Ford's current wheel options are typically better then most other manufactures, but it would be nice to have more options, wheels are one of the most first items people often change out, why not offer better/more options from the factory?
12. More tire options. I would have liked to get my truck with BF Goodrich T/A tires instead of the Scorpions, but no such option was available. The BF Goodrich T/A's are much better A/T & snow tires for a 4x4 truck.
13. Factory spray-in bed liner option on F-150's (I know it's available on F-250's, why not F-150's?)

Make the options packages more flexable, i.e. if you like some ofthe options but not all in a package you should be able to pick and choose within that package. For example the running boards if you don't want them included in a package you could delete them.

2010 blue screw 4x4
In agreement with "the chad" Wtf are they thinking by not having ac in the rear super crews... Not everyone wants the front bucket seat setup.
And how about factory airbags for the rear end? I've got the max tow yadi yada but when I've got the bed filled with my mx bike, wood, fuel, tools and hooked to my trailer it looks like a dumpy fat chick dragging her @$$ around(not as bad as my 07 but still days). Ford could easily make a in dash controlled air bag system. They rate our hoopties to tow 11300k air bags should be an option.
How about more than 1 or 2 interior options... Seriously... My 07 had the two tone grey interior that never got dirty, was durable and looked good. Now the cloth interior is like some light toupe color that shows every spot of dirt. Wtf ford? I bought a 4x4 truck not a damn Lexus. Make the interior colors and materials as tough as the rest of the truck. I'm sure everyone has seen the Toyota fj cruiser. That interior is bomb proof.
Finally.... When you buy the max tow package put real tires on it. The michelins are garbage. Yea if you never tow they are fine but when your running 9k lbs down the highway the truck shouldn't feel like your driving on flubber.. sell the trucks, equipped with max tow package real E rated tires.
