Best I found it is:

Power Driver Seat Adj.
Steering Wheel controls
Electronic auto temp control
Sony 6-disc radio

There may be more to it and the Pref. Equip. Package changes from year to year...what year truck are you talking about? 2012?

After further study and talking to my salesman friend at the dealership,

I think this rounds out the rest of the info you're looking for:

SYNC
Trailer Brake Controller
Rear view camera
Reverse sensing system
SIRIUS XM
4.2" Productivity Screen
PowerFold heated, memory, signal mirrors

There is a thread on here in this section ('09-'12) that leads you to the PDF 2012 Ordering Guide--it might tell you the rest, if there is any.

I was under the impression that codes in the format ###n (3 numerals followed by an alpha) actually defined the various models. In this case 518A=King Ranch and all the various equipment which is standard on that model. Likewise, 528A=Platinum, 538A=Harley, etc. Optional equipment is then specified with unique codes in various formats as ###, ##n, n#n, etc.

Thanks, guys. I was able to get a copy of the 2012 guide and V-Mutt is correct in that this describes a KR. Then there is a second code, in this case W1E, that further defines the wheelbase and body style as 4x4, SCrew, 5.5' box.

Appreciate the help!!
