Depends on the package. Lariat and FX4 have a console, the rest don't. (XL, XLT)

Gauges would be a good option, stereo upgrade with an aftermarket company (IE Kenwood, Sony, etc.), wider more supportive seats would be welcomed as well.

GM still has the 8.1L
Dodge is soon releasing their larger V8 HEMI.
Ford just produces the V10 due to cost constraints and ease of production.
Plus there is the ever tightening emission requirements. Smaller piston bores are easier to control combustion, and therefore, emissions versus large bores. Hence, the V10 being an LEV.

But I have the feeling if they even tried that, it would be along the lines of the "FX4" package, and we would just rip the mass produced junk off anyhow....

i have an 01" sd crew cab. what i dont want to see on the new superduty's is the same front as the f150. i'd like them to keep the superduty unique like its always been. better climate control. the defroster doesnt reach the rear windows in cold months so improve that. an extended warranty. better security on the rear sliding window or make it power. (heard on this site some break ins through this window) servicable hubs. hmmmmmmm am i missing anything.

How about each one comes with a 125 lb Rhodesian Ridgeback guard dog. I just bought a '04 F250 FX4 CC Saturday, and some punk tried to steal it today. All they managed to do was destroy the door handle and lock, and put some nice little dents in the door.
That's one thing the Arabs do right. Cut the hands off of thieves. I'm a little PO'd today. Can ya tell?

Ouch, did you happen to catch or see who did it?? Hope you can keep that rig safe!
As for changes to the Superduty... LESS PLASTIC! Bring back good ol' fashioned metal handles, all-metal bumpers, metal fronts of dashes, more metal in the body and less fiberglass/plastic. My grandpa's twenty-some-odd-year-old Chevy Suburban is metal everywhere, and when it's been hit in the past, it just got a few dents, whereas today's trucks get entire panels broken off like a piece of plastic. It's a shame... Anyway, just my two cents!

Longer warranty, cloth seat option for the Lariat, factory sprayed bed liner, more two-tone options, rear seat dvd option, better cup holders in back seat( it has no cup holders now, if seating 3 people in back) 12 volt accessory plug near back of bed, real gauges, rear seat heaters,
