Very true, it's a great truck...

BUT.. I had resolved to wait for a 2013, then got a wild hair and mildly impatient after the order date changed.. Then ended up calling to place my 2012 order.. I knew the refresh coming would take me a while to warm up too, it seems to take about a year before I like the new models.

I here ya
I am real happy to see the 6.2 available in a non raptor super cab

I think they hide the ac duct work for the seats in the center console.
I will be surprised if they ever offer ac seats in bench form.

I am thinking there may be a white super cab lariat 6.2 bench seat in my future.

I would estimate a whopping .2 mpg which can be easily erased by being stupid with the throttle!

I should have waited just to get the HID headlights. I guess I'll be swapping mine out in the fall.

I don't think it'll be that easy

I'm sure it involves some wiring, but I'm willing to give it a shot.

Is there an other order guide out there? This one locks up my computer after the first page.

Might want to see if you can download it and then open it.

Well to the dealer today to see about ordering the FX4 with everything I wanted and few extras I dont want as you have to have to get this type thing. 51300 was the estimate. So told the guy lets see what the appraisal comes back at. So he comes back and the magic cal from the appraiser says 17k. I then show him where NADA prices my truck in rough shape at 21,775. He was well what if I can get him to 19k I was like I just dont think thats going to do it. Yes my truck has 83k on the clock but it is in like new condition and all the maintenance is done at that dealer. So I told him that is just to low and it looks like I wont be ordering a truck at this time. This is a dealer in which I have leased or purchased 5 or 6 vehicles from. So I dont know do I go by what the dealer is telling on the value of my truck or is the NADA what I should be looking at. So what says the community on the trade in value of the trucks? The wheels will be back to stock as well as the CAI would be removed. Only mods left would be the Borla exhaust and the Raptor Diff lock neither of which I dont consider as part of the trade in value.

They are never worth anything until they want to resell it. That is why I am still in my truck!

Man, no more painted grille for the FX appearance pack... I really was hoping they would do something cool with the C-Clamp grille. I was really starting to like it.. May have to do it myself...

Also see that FX App pack added a hood decal and 10-way power seats... wonder if the hood decal will be as bad as the side decal....?

I can't say about trade-in, but I just looked at 2 different 2009 Screw FX4's here in IL, one was asking $26,900, the other $28,500, both with around 41K miles on them and both in decent condition.

Heated and cooled seats... Fancy.

Why no more Harley model though? I'm apparently out of the loop.

Any one want to venture a guess on what the 2013 tow mirrors will run? With the power folding and all?

This might be a dumb question, but since they are going to the 3.55 standard on the FX, will we still be able to get the 3.73's as an option?
