doubts about f-150? xl, xlt or lariat?

Nice truck!
From the pictures, it has about all the XL/Custom trim features. Non-chromed headlights, black grille, trimless bumpers, black interior trim.
What looks different to me is the gauge cluster. Did you swap clusters? I thought the tach cluster did not come with Customs and XL's. Another is the fenderwell trim. I didn't think Customs / XL's had that. I may be wrong about that trim.
Like said above, check the dash. The best way though is to decode the VIN number. Look at the door jamb sticker and check out the body and trim codes. These will tell you without a doubt.

I see a badge on the left fender in this picture. What does it say? That badge should tell you.

I ordered it with an AM/FM/cassette stereo, cruise, cloth seats, bed light, underhood light and a sliding rear window. It also had a cloth headliner and wood trim on the steering wheel and dash. I did not order air, carpeting or power windows or locks, but I think I could have.

It isn't listed on the title to any of our trucks and I don't see how the vin can tell you what the package is.
Nothing special our 89 F250 has tach and it is an XL with headliner, underhood light, manual transmission, vinyl floors manual locks and windows, and wood grain so I think it may be an order thing. Unfortunetly my 88 F150 custom doesn't have a tach nor our 89 F350 XLT Lariat but my dad's 86 F150 XLT Lariat has one.
Also HD my 88 F150 custom and our 89 F250 xl had trim bumpers on them but I ended up taking replacing the trim bumper with a trimless one on my 88 F150. So I don't think the trim thing can help the OP find out what his truck is.

Wow, I had no idea that they could be ordered with so many variations back then. That's really cool though.
I double checked my FSM and the VIN and body code actually doesn't help much either, so I'm 0 for 2. Apologies if I mislead anyone!:
I found a couple links to get build sheets from Ford, but the pics I saw of them didn't show trim levels listed. All I can think of is to talk to a dealer.
