2026 Order Guide

Didn't see it posted yet, looks like some highlights are Antimatter and Darkened Bronze are being replaced, you can get an STX 350 drw(although no black wheels like pictured on the "test" MY 25s), you can get a standard output tremor and you can get an extended cab shortbed.

Really interested to see the Argon Blue. If it is anything like Blue Jeans was or a little lighter, I'd love to have that on a Platinum Plus.

Oh the big update...they are bringing the door pillar keypad back lmao, so for those with a 25 this is a bit of a slap in the face

At least Ford recognizes the value that the key pad has to some users. It sucks that I had to pay to get it as an option.

the come back of the keypad really grinds my gears. I have a 25 'in production'

Nice find!
Argon Blue could be interesting.
Some examples.




With a Black Out Package might work.

Shows keypad as optional, which means ill assume you gotta pay for it extra. Ill just eat the $200 and add it to my 2025 🤣

the only thing that pisses me off is XLT no longer requires black appearance package. The only reason I bought a Lariat was because I didn't want the damn black package on an XLT.

Hello guys and gals, thanks for having me. Sent in my list of needs/wants to Granger last night. Excited to see what they come back with in terms of price given every day now expected price increases. Caught that recent TSB up here on the 7.3s and chose to avoid both that issue plus any damage done to the current used sale inventory concerning the (apparently avoidable) idle oil pressure problem before it.
Trying to see what loading up a Lariat will cost and whether a road trip to Iowa is justified.

Guide lists 2026 Lariat with a "wrapped" steering wheel, whereas KR and Plat have "leather wrapped." What is Lariat wheel "wrapped" with? Good intentions?
Did KR also lose projector headlamps and LED tails to the exclusive domain of the Plat or was that the same in 25?

Lariat has no leather now, same as 25, and 24 maybe had some leather trim but wasn’t all leather.

LED projectors/tails have been platinum and up since 23.

OK thx. So the Lariat wheel is wrapped in faux leather, like the seats? I don't mind the fake leather but I can not stand the rubber steering wheels on the XLT.

I don't care about the keypad; haven't used mine yet but for those that like it, it's good news. 2WD available in XLT and Lariat is the biggest change I see.....SC/SB availability and XLT premium no longer requiring the Black Appearance Package are other notable and welcome changes.....well, changes back, I guess!

I can't tell the difference between the 2023 Lariat leather wrapped wheel and the 2025 Lariat Active X "leather" wrapped steering wheel. I also don't understand the outrage with switching to the Active X. Sure its not leather, but its got the same durability, the same feel and is even easier to clean and maintain.

I came from a lot of heated leather steering wheels to my urethane XLT steering wheel in my current truck and honestly I haven't minded it one bit. It's comfy, durable unlike leather, and it cleans very easily. It makes for a much better truck steering wheel.

The keypad would be a must have on a new order too, I use mine all the time.

Glad to see Antimatter is gone. Never understood having it on the option sheet when black was already there and 99% of the time you couldn't tell both colors apart from 15 feet away.

It will be interesting to see where these '26 prices fall and whether that ask is enough to clear out this year's inventory quicker given the lack of differences between these two order books open at the same time for even longer than normal. Good strategy either way in my opinion.

The order guide does make a distinction between "SecuriCode Keypad" (available on XLT Premium, Lariat, KR, and Plat) and "SecuriCode Wireless Keypad" (available on XL). So it is true, WIRED keypad is back!

I agree completely. That's why I tore apart the door on my brand new truck to add the keypad that some brilliant accountant thought was a good idea to eliminate.
