Interior ceiling grab handle
Hello. Hope this isnt a stupid question but why dont the F-150’s come with some sort of ceiling/roof grab handle? Sometimes if my wife is driving and im sitting in the front or back (if my kids wanna ride shotgun) i constantly find myself reaching up for a handle of some sort. Numerous passengers in my truck also look for it as well! Ive been in full size tundras and titans and they both have them. Is it an American truck thing? I dont think my bro in laws 2019 chevy has them either. I own a 2019 F-150 SCREW. I know they have the pillar mounted handles but they offer a funky holding position, if you will, when your searching for something to grab onto and hold while cruising around. Maybe its just me?

My old 250 had the same lame arrangement so aluminum doesn't have anything to do with it.

I agree. I find the grab handle on the A-pillar quite handy and easy to reach. My wife uses it all the time.

I think the Pillar Handles are for getting in and out of the Vehicle since it sits high. Thats my opinion. My wife and sister in law wish the roof handles I wonder if there is a after market place that can install them.

They are making at least two, I'm sure they don't want to make 3 or more.
Nor would they want to put some handles on the roof and some on the pillar.
