Yes..I see this is the case. I do like the center console with the shifter in the center and not the column but don't think it's as important as it's price tag to me. I'm back to ordering a new truck exactly like I want it and accept the rebates I end up with. It would be great to score a coupon. I'll need to explore that some more since not exactly sure how to look for those. One question I have is what's needed to get the most towing power if I choose the 2.7 Eco. Would I need to select a certain gearing ratio and tow package. I was looking at a spec sheet but it was a little confusing. I thought I saw where the 2.7 was capable to tow around 8400lbs if set up correctly. That could work for me.

You would need the 3.73 gears to get over 8,000 lbs of towing capacity. You can see the towing capabilities of each truck configuration here:

2016 Ford F-150 Full Size Pickup Truck | Towing Specifications | Ford.com

You may opt for the 2.7L EB Payload Package, which gives you the 3.73 Electronic-locking rear axle, 9.75-inch gearset, and Mechanical Parking Brake.

To get a coupon, go to the Ford website then go to the F150 page. At the bottom of the page there are links in small print. Choose request a brochure. It will take several weeks to get it. If you're lucky, there will be a coupon on the back page. It is only good for the person it is sent to.

Went to the ford site. Selected F150 and scrolled to the bottom of page. Do not see a link that says request a brochure. Did see a brochure link but it opens a PDF brochure. What am I missing??

Ok, I just looked. They changed the navigation a little. Select Brochures and Guides from the fine print links at the bottom of the page. It will take you to a new page. Under the picture of a silver F150 towing a boat, there is a link that says "Have us send a...." Click that and you will get a page where you type your info in so they can send you one.
