FX2 vs FX4

I'm looking for anew F150. It's between the FXs

What is the diffrence between the FX2 and FX4?

FX2 is alot cheaper for what I want, even with leather. Thats most likely the one im going with, but If someone gives me a good reason otherwise I'll gladly listen.

Thank you

The FX2 fully loaded is 39,845 MSRP

The FX4 w/o the luxury package is 41,989

FX2 seems better to me.

FX2: 4x2, bigger payload.
FX4: 4x4, slightly lower payload, improved off-road capabilities.
If all you need is a working truck and won't use 4x4, go with the FX2 and you should be fine.

Yah, the biggest difference is the FX2 - 4x2 and FX4 - 4x4.

That's what I thought.

I don't need a off road truck. Just a truck to live with.

The FX2 is a much more sportier truck in appearance. Take for example the bumpers. It also sits about an inch lower than the FX4. In my opinion they are two drastically different trucks.

Now that you say it, I think I've seen Fx2 and then "sport" under the sticker...

If I was looking for a comfortable sporty cruiser, the FX2 would be my choice.

The only reason that I go with 4x4 on any model truck is that I need low range to get my car hauler out of the yard without tearing up any grass. It's really easy to just walk the trailer out without spinning any tires, especially if the ground is wet. So I'd go with FX4.

If I got less snow I probably would have gone with the FX2, but especially after last winter, its worth the expense to go with a 4WD version.
