Sorry, I must be missing something. It is my understanding that there are only 2 versions of the "flow through" center console, ones available on the with column shift and ones with it mounted on the center console.

Are you referring to something else?

All I'm trying to say is that the only mention of the flow-through console is on the Unique Sport interior package for the 2018 XLT.

Sorry that I can't be more help. It was my understanding that the 40/console/40 seat option was the same as what you are calling "flow through console". That option is available with any XLT equipment pkg (provided it's an scab or screw)

I just built a XL 2wd or 4x4 3.3L scab &/or screw with a console(which looks almost the same as a flow through but without the shifter)w/column shift but I did have to choose the 101A option. I skipped all of the other options(went straight to the interior section) and it stated that I had to switch from the 100A to the 101A option.

Built a XLT 2wd or 4x4 same as the XL with the 300A , 301A or the 302A equipment group and they all list the same console w/column shift available for $295.00


The Flow-through console pictured in the Lariat looks almost the same but with a shifter. Not sure why Ford list(names) the console 2 different ways.

I noticed for the Lariat (I'm sure it's available for the others too) that there are two Max Tow packages. One for 18" and smaller wheels and one for 20". If it sticks on the site and planned, I wonder what the difference is??? Software or hardware, or Both??
I always looked a the wheel size to be a plus one or plus two type thing where the overall wheelset diameter is relatively unchanged.
It would be interesting to see what it is.

The difference is probably the load range on the tires, I would guess. But there is nothing specified.

Also checked the parts catalog this morning and they use the same generic illustration so other than style(color-trim) I have no clue what the difference is except w/or w/o floor shift.

Guessing that the use of "flow through" console in the description was a marketing department decision.

To me 40/console/40 = flow through console, regardless if it's floor or column shifter. (I prefer column shift anyways).

One thing wrong (at the time of this post) that I did see it the standard axle ratio is 3.15. Ford doesn't have a 3.15 ratio.
Why do you say that? I mean I don't crack open the pumpkins but the 3.15 is listed as standard for the RC with the 4x2 with all motors other than the base 3.3.

My bad. I do see listed for the 9.75 rear end 2015/up. I should have fact checked but Trump made me state it.
