Fx4 Meaning
#167
I originally test drove a white/tan Lariat 4x4 that was sweet. The info center with "XX miles to E" was cool! However, I thought it was more of a beautiful truck that I would want my wife to drive. The FX4 model looked and felt more like a man's truck. They were both around $40,000 sticker--no real difference in the price. I guess it depends on what suits you best. By the way, Thumper's truck has to be one of the baddest *** trucks I've ever seen.

Forget the Lariat and Fx4.....imho I think the XLT is the greatest looking truck out there.
However, I have an '05 STX ($16700 with 22 miles on it) with SCab, 4x4, 6Disc Audiophile, 6.5' bed....perfect work truck for me and looks great. If I wanted to spend 30-40K for a truck (which I couldn't anyways) I'd buy a muscle car.

I don't know who would spend 30-40K on a truck either, I bought mine for $27,000 OTD/TTT.

My wife got the Eddie Bauer...the equivalent of a Lariat in the Explorer. She likes all that pampering crap. My FX4 listed for $38,000, which is more than most Lariats.

In all honesty though, the Lariat and FX4 are so close in features. Ford should really make FX4 an option package again.

I hate to keep beating this thread to death buy do any of you previous lariat owners remeber actually getting something from ford for buying the lariat. I got a fleece blanket with BUILT FORD TOUGH on it with my 99 lariat and I think some of the 97 and 98 owners were getting ford folding lawn chairs. I'm not sure what year they quit doing this but all i got with my 05 lariat was deeper in debt.
