Sport Appearance
Hello everyone
I was curious as to know if Ford will ever introduce a Sport Package (color matched bumpers & such) on the F250? Not a big fan of chrome.
I am in no rush to purchase a new truck but this is something I wouldn't mind waiting for, & I'm aware it isn't too difficult to paint.
Ram has the Sport Appearance Group
GM has the All Terrain/Custom Sport Edition
Otherwise the only factory option would be the Platinum trim right?
Lariat trim is more than enough IMO, spending the extra 6k+ on the platinum is a little too much.

I feel the exact same way as the OP. I love these Super Duties, but HATE all the chrome. And even though the Platinum may give you painted bumpers, you end up with a ton of other chrome and silver (door handles, mirror caps, window trim, tailgate applique, grille, wheels, tow hooks, etc.)
The F-150's have a sport appearance package, I wish they would offer it in the Super Duties.
Though FYI, I did reach out to several powder coating shops which quoted me $150 - $175 per bumper which included hand sanding, priming, and top coating. The only problem is you may not be able to find an exact matching color, but I plan on going with Shadow Black on the truck so a high gloss black powder coat should blend right in. Plus it will be way tougher than paint.

Best bet would be a Lariat
I dont understand why they isn't avaliable, I wouldn't be surprised if this influenced a gang of GM/RAM buyers to jump ship.

It's quiet obvious that some driver select their favorite choices of trucks for different reasons. I've driven Ford all of my life except for one. I thought I would buy a new RAM Longhorn to see what I had been missing. The gadget, Bell and Whistles were very impressive and far nicer than those of a Ford at the time. If I were going to buy a truck for it's appearances, digital display and sound system I very likely would still be driving a RAM. I am a dedicated Ford man and for that reason and the fact that Ford products have always served me well plus the fact that the large flat floorboard in the back, I will continue to be a dedicated Ford owner.

I owned 2 2016 F150s with Sport packages. I would love if Ford offered equivalent in a Super Duty. Eliminate exterior chrome, add black cloth bucket seats and a center console shift lever.
The thing that I like the least with my F350 is having the shift on the steering column and not having a center console shift.
I have my Lariat leather seats covered with Ford Carhartt covers.
Here are some pictures of both of my F150 Sports.
