I really like those wheels on the '23 Sport Appearance Package. The 'Lego Gear' wheels on the '23 BAP are a big 'No Go' in my opinion.
The '23's don't look as bad to me now that I'm seeing more pictures. I see on Facebook that delivery to actual customers are happening! Wow. I wonder if Ford will build '24 models this fall, or push the '23's to end of the year?

There's nothing picky about what i choose in a 108,000$ Canadian vehicle. I pick the outside color and trim level, engine, options, as well as the interior color because that's what i want.

Hard to tell from the online configurator, but Baja interior might have a darker headliner. That might limit other wants of yours though.

So now what, what are you going to buy instead if gray headliner is so terrible? Is the Platinum black? Or go completely different and drop $$$ on a Limited?

No Limited for me since they come with the glass roof, which i don't want. Had a conversation with my dealer this past Monday. Told him i don't want the 2023 Plat Tremor i had ordered beginning of February if it'll have a light Gray headliner but not to cancel just yet till we know for sure.He said he'll call the ford rep to find out for sure. Rep didn't know and gave him the phone number of somebody at the Plant who would know. He called this guy an hour ago and he was told that Platiums will have black headliners! Not sure about KR and Limited since he didn't ask about them. . Sounds like all J1's have the Gray ABC posts with headliner. I'm happy now.

So it sounds like those who want black pillars and headliner will have to skip the Lariat (with and without BAP) trim and move to a Platinum. That could be an issue for some that don't want Platinum, either for cost or exterior details. Yeah, Limited usually has some unique color scheme, most likely not black and I'm with on that glass roof, I wouldn't want it.

It's the Lariat trim that has been shown to have gray for 2023. I doubt that will change. Ford used gray in Lariats with black seats 2017-2021, so I wouldn't expect that to be a job 1 only thing.

The videos of the 2023 Platinums from months ago showed black headliners and pillars, not sure if they ever had or were going to have gray in them. Where did the idea come from that 2023 Platinums were coming with gray headliners?

And most of all, on page 4 of the order guide (right side, half way down the page) under Headliner: colour coordinated, which indicates Gray to me. It could also mean black i suppose if one wants to split hairs, in which case it would say Black i gather...

I understand the concern, just wasn't clear on what sparked it.

My 2021 BAP has a tan-greyish headliner and A/B/C pillar trim with black interior. Personally I like it, but if it was truly grey I could see that looking strange against the black interior.
I could see how this looks grey in the photos but if it's the same material as the earlier trucks it's more of a tan grey.

Last I checked the phone dial wheels were nowhere to be found on the Ford configurator once BAP was added as an option on there. Not sure I guess we'll see when the BAP trucks start hitting the streets what they really show up with.

There are a few photos of a members red 2023 Lariat in this thread https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...es-only-8.html
It looks to have black B and C pillars with the lighter grayish color on the A pillars and headliner. (It is a Super Cab though)
