It had running boards until I selected FX4.
To add the running boards back in, you have to go Limited.

Hmmmm I don't understand what you want. 502a is chrome running boards. Select FX4 then reselect chrome running boards or add deployable.
Black running boards with 502a moves it to Special Edition Package with Sport and FX4.
If you want 502a, sport and FX4 just have the dealer add black running boards when it is delivered.

Do not want chrome. Mainly only want 502A for the LED headlights.
Sure it is chrome by default, but as soon as you add FX4 or sport appearance, the running boards get deleted.
I think that's what I started out saying.

Select 502a, FX4, then Sport pkg. Then you should have paint to match step bars. That's how mine is equipped, but it's a very late build '15. I've built a '16 just like it on Ford's build and price. I would have ordered but I happened to find a '15 in stock very close to what I wanted.

The solution for me would be the ability to upgrade my halogen headlights for a couple hundred bucks. I don't think that's going to happen very soon. Right now the upgrade looks like it's going to run ~~ $1,000.

I'd love LED headlights. Not because I think my halogens are inadequate by any means, but I'm kind of a geek with new tech. NO way am I paying $1,000 for the upgrade though.

There's starting to get a few new trucks on my route but all of them are lower end models, STX and XLT. Just one FX4.
In the case of a $100 increase for a 36 gallon tank, it's not surprising but $100 more? Did the plastic tank get better? Is the pump assembly better? I'll wager neither, it's a popular option. These are the little things that really tick me off.

The info I have seen said 2016 production started 10/12 and final 2015 production was 11/8... so I am guessing that Dearborn started 2016's on 10/12, but KC still made 2015's through 11/8? Just a guess. Where was yours built?

jscozz, I think you are correct. I am pretty sure my truck is a KC build (I will follow up with a correction if I am mistaken) and made just before the 11/8/15 changeover. I just never seen current model year motor vehicles being made that late into the year. Is this normal?
