The appliqué on the tailgate no longer appears due to the new style Pro Access tailgate that is coming. What Ford should have done is made the appliqué standard for those not getting the new tailgate. Also, no Coyote option on King Ranch is a disgrace FoMoCo!!!

Can you do a side by side comparison on the 14 speaker unleashed sound system vs the 18? I’m noticing several spots of cost cutting. Could you do a video pointing out all the cost cutting measure? Even the base trucks have smaller compact headlights which don’t look bad but it was a way for ford to cut cost.

Aside from the plusher seats, and all the badging, theres nothing in it you cant get in a full load lariat for cheaper
@jgrc73Ай бұрын
King Ranch and cheaper don't really go together in the same sentence. Lariats are super nice, and can be spec'd exactly the same or better. for me personally it's the style of the king ranch that cannot be imitated in any other trim, Specifically the brown cowhide leather and on my model the KR specific paint combo, things like that. For most people whose age doesn't start with a five or more get lariat or something cheaper even because you're not going to keep it as long as old people are I intend to keep my KR till im gone, and I'm only 51. If you do know exactly what vehicle you want, get a high spec used truck and commit to upkeep using the money you saved. for me personally high trim levels carry a lot of long-term value in terms of comfort satisfaction overall happiness with the vehicle. buying something like that new is a recipe for financial disaster but if you search you can find your truck or car built just the way you would have and massively depreciated, then just take care of each and everything that comes up in your truck will keep you happy forever
