08 Limited = 3.31 gears, NO HD towing package, 18" wheels, reverse camera, power running boards. Built 9/12/08
08 Eddie Bauer = 3.31 gears, DOES have HD towing pkg, 20" wheels, NO reverse camera or power running boards. Built 8/25/07
If it were me I would go for the Limited because it has the newer redesigned heads that dont have the spark plug problems and it has just about everything except HD towing and 20's.

Matt- I have a 2008 Exp Ltd I bought a couple of months ago. How can I tell if it has the redesigned heads and what was/is the spark plug problem? Do I need to be on the lookout for fouled plugs etc? It has 44,500 on it. Thanks.

The problem with the plugs was that they could break off when removing them, leaving part in the motor. Redesigned heads had more threads and different plugs, supposedly solving the broken spark plug issue.
44,500 is a little early to swap plugs IMHO.
Just an FYI, I also have a 06 F150 with over 192,000 on it and it's on it's 3rd set of plugs. None have broken. First change was scary but second change was alot easier.
