Well thats the Lariat leather, they usually have either tan or Black, The Kingranch package has a Brown leather, and then any other package will have either black, tan, or grey fabric interior. Some times there is a grey leather inertior option as well. And of coarse depending on what exterior color you choose depends on what interior color's are avaialbe.

Can you measure the height of the bed rails from the ground, and post the results. I already had to raise my 5th wheel trailer going from a 1994 F350 to a 2005 F350 FX4. Would like to know if the F450 FX4 will fit under my trailer.

Thanks.

Thanks for the compliments. So far I've seen 8.4 mpg, but once the truck breaks in I'm sure it will do better. I won't be hauling my trailer for another month or so, but I'll post the mileage when I do.

I agree, but they don't look as bad as my 06 did when it came with those ridiculous 17's it came with! I wound up putting a set of 20's on (which are now for sale since I got rid of the truck and kept the wheels/tires)
See how much better it looks with the 20's:

It's a little bit harsher or a ride over bumps, but on regular pavement, the ride is quite nice. honestly, I feel like I'm driving a luxury SUV....it's that nice.

Snow Plow Prep & Heated Seats in PB, Fla.????

Umm, wouldn't air conditioned seats be a better option for you?

Just Razzin ya.

Beautifull rig! Deeeamn, I sure hope the thing loosens up a bit. 8.4 MPG would kill me.
I wish I could justify buying one. I'm a concrete contractor and just can't bring myself to buy a $50K+ truck, just to have an employee throw a concrete encrusted wheel barrow over the rail and scratch the chit outta it.
I think I'd come unglued, and end up firing someone!
