Thanks. It's a 2025 F150 5.0 Lariat. Found one online equipped the way I wanted at a small dealership across the state in the hood in Tampa. Spent my entire Memorial Day watching a motley sales department waste my time, seriously trying to work a ridicules up-charge and turn over closing gimmick straight out of the 80's, on guy that's bought more cars than they have sitting on their lot. I'm not kidding, they even tried to charge me $600 bucks for floor mats that came standard with the FX4 package from the factory. I love new trucks, but I'd rather be waterboarded for 5 hours than spend that time at a dealership.

I hear you on that trick. They even catered dinner in while they worked out all the financing with a California based bank.
4 hours of nonsense. I just wanted my keys and to go to the YMCA and wait. Needless to say, they got any of my business again.
