Lariat dash at night

I finally found a setting on the camera to take descent picture of the dash at night Sorry for the tilt...I didn't know I had the cam tilted a little when I snapped it.

I love the speedo cluster on my Lariat. It goes from a cool looking racing speedo with white face gauges to glow-in-the dark green and red like Lariat150's pics. Is that cool or what? Oh and I LOVE the information center...except that my wife keeps switching it to "miles to empty" and I want it on the "outside thermometer"!! I gotta buy that woman a new car.

HA! I was just telling my wife how this truck is MINE...and she agreed. She was telling me I need to teach her how to drive in in case of an emergency. I said ok, but only if I get mauled by a bear and can't drive or something like that. She has her 2 cars and I have my truck and life is good I cringe every time I see a woman driving a new F-150...lol I keep thinking, somewhere...there's an aggrevated husband...hehe I'm glad my wife leaves mine alone. In fact, she's afraid of it because it's so big. She calls it a 'tank' That's fine with me of course.

Are your temperature readings always half-way?

FX4 has a message center, but it's not the same as Lariat. The Lariat message center has more information.

The 5, 6, and 7 on the tach in my Lariat are red... not green. That's strange.

When was your Lariat built? Just curious.

Yes, it's normal. They always go there and STAY after the truck warms up.

By the way, not sure about the tach with red on it. I've never seen any photos of a lariat tach in Ford's material with red in the tach, but I would like to have a red area...it would have been nice. Thing is though, I'll never need it since the computer will stop me from ever going beyond the redline anyway. So I guess in that sense, it's somewhat pointless to have a redline area.

My temp gauge goes just above the halfway mark when warmed up. Right about where lariatf150's battery and oil pressure gauges are in the above pics. All my gauges are right there, except for the gas gauge, of course. That sucker seems to be a lot lower most of the time.

the driver info center was another big plus for the Lariat over the fX4 when deciding what to order, gotta have the white faced guages with glow in the dark as well
