power running boards
Most folks probably like the center console. I prefer the bench seat with a small storage in the armrest and a small storage under the seat. That way the grandkids can sit next to me - or my wife.
We're had several F150 and one F450 with the power running boards. They're awesome. But, now Ford says you can't have them if you opt for the bench seat. And I really don't like the cavernous hole of the center console. My wife's F150 has that and it just fills up with stuff and a lot of stuff just gets buried and never seen again.
If I order another F450 with bench seat is it easy enough to add the power running boards? They are way cost prohibitive to buy from the parts department but I'll be glad to source some from a junkyard. Installing them doesn't look too hard. Does anybody know what it takes to activate the logic?

You may already know this, disregard if you do. The new OEM boards are still nice but kind of annoying. On my 21 350 when I open the drivers door only the drivers side board comes down. On my 23 when I open the drivers door both the driver and passenger side go down. I haven’t seen a setting in the menu to change this. If you think this will bug you, might be better off getting your bench seat then getting the AMP steps.
