From the way I read the order guide and my salesman the 3.73 is still standard on the fx4 and the 3.55 is optional. But I could be completely wrong.

 

I just noticed that Ford has quietly posted official pictures of the Platinum and King Ranch on their website. Now if we can only see the interiors!

There are a couple interior pics of the new color....I likes!

 

I want the 2013 due to the MyFord Touch. I will probably buy this times next year when the 14s start getting ready to roll.

 

I placed the order for my new truck last week based on the data in the guide.

Here's how I spec'd it out:

W1E F150 4X4 Super Crew 145" wheelbase
YZ Oxford White
6B FX Appearance Black Interior (Alcantara inserts)
66F FX Appearance Package
402A Equipment Group (with Moonroof 43M and Navigation 50N)
99T 3.5 liter EcoBoost V6
446 6-speed Automatic Transmission
XL6 3.73 Electronic Locking Differential
63E Bed Extender
63T Tailgate Step
96L Wheel Well Liners
96W Spray-In Bed Liner

Already lining up the first mods:

Bilstein 5100 Shocks (Fr: 24-187497, Rr: 33-187501)
Roush Cat-Back Exhaust (#421248)
Bridgestone Revo 2 LT275/65R20 Tires (34.1" diameter)

Seven weeks (or more) to go!

Does anyone have any idea when the official pricing will be announced? I am on the fence about buying a 2012 or waiting for a 2013, and it would be nice to be able to compare the prices side by side....

 

The dealer printed out a copy of my order with pricing indicated on my FX4 specs.

Don't know when the public release of pricing will happen.

For me, there are enough significant differences between a 2012 and 2013 to wait for the new one.

However....what we don't know is what level of incentives will be available when the new trucks arrive.....
