BLIS taillights

Hello all, I am currently the owner of a 2005 F150 FX4, soon to be for sale and my wife and I will be making the leap up to a F250 CC SB. More than likely, we will be ordering a XLT.

My question is about the taillights... if I order the BLIS option... are all BLIS taillights LED's, or just the trucks with the quad beam led headlights get led taillights?

Thanks!

Led tails only come with led heads.

Okay, thanks, I was hoping it was kinda like the F150's that have BLIS and have led taillights without the led headlights. Oh well, I guess either way the new truck is going to still be a major step up from what I currently have!
Thanks for the info!

You can get BLIS with Halogen lights, both headlights and taillights, or BLIS with LEDs. However you can't get LED taillights and Halogen headlights.

I'd also note that unless you plan on pulling a conventional trailer of less than 30 feet, BLIS is basically useless. The mirrors are so good on this truck there are no blind spots. However, I find the trailer blind spot function to work pretty well, and I guess the rear cross traffic function works well, too.
