That's a killer for anyone with back problems.
I'm sure you can still get them. I don't see them taking that away with leather... Unless they now require you to get the lux pkg to get it....

Specs on the Ford website says heated seats are only available on Lariat, HD, and KR..... Not available even as an option on FX4.

Anyone figure this out yet? I even tried to build an FX4 online and can't get heated seats nor FX4 Luxury package (which used to include heated seats). Looks like it's been done away with...

I have no idea if thishas been mentioned. But I'm trying to reach my quota so I can PM people. So here goes.

You can't get the nice Dark Shadow Grey Metallic Color on a Lariat.

According to the 07 F150 brochure the FX4 luxury package is listed as "late availability". I seen an 07 F150 FX4 on ebay with it, a couple weeks ago.

Thanks in advance Professor!

Well I dont know and dont care, I have a quad that I haul in my FX4 how old does that make me look. And for the guy that I would be passed my a LARIAT while looking down at me fat chance that would happen got to catch up to me.

Since this is the original post, i will regard that.
fx4 like all ford trucks seem to me a personal preference, and not based soley on specs . some like this some like that , what ya need "yeah" but more like what ya like.
4x2 , 4x4 , Lariat and those crazy lookin King Ranches J/K lol
i have the lariat, and mine does have bout everything right down to the skidplates !! only thing i dont have are those "overated" shocks.
to make it simple most of us are buying these trucks with what we want and like on them.
me i prefer the chrome to the paint.
fx4 more paint less chrome , Overrated shocks .

honestly, they really are the same truck. a few options are differnt, big whoop. call lariat an old fart's truck, i think that is because of the appearance of the two-tone paint. get the same color all around, it looks badass. ive hauled 9k trailers of wood with mine, every hunting season it sees lots of mud every weekend, hauling a 600 pound camo grizzly quad in the bed, driven through rivers etc etc. its a truck, use it like one. friends have fx4s, doing the same stuff, is there a noticeable different? only in appearance. but as far as performing like a FORD TRUCK, no theres not.its all personal preference. i love both, i would take either one. now compare either one to a different truck like a dodge, toyota, chevy or nissan....then its all up for debate.

edit: sry this post is so late i didnt realize how old this thread was. Just thought id throw out my opinion.
