Rancho Suspension

I was at a ford dealership getting my oil changed and noticed that all the new F250 and 350 FX4 models had Rancho shocks on them. I noticed that the 04 and 05 F150 Fx4's did not have them. And when I was at my dog club over the weekend I women there has an '03 F150 FX4 and hers has Rancho Shocks, which she says were on it when she bought it new. My 04 does not have them so I was wondering if anybody else's truck came with them and if they did were they an upgrade you paid for. If you can't buy an F150 from a dealership with them already installed why is that?

The new ones, '04-'05, F-150s do not come with them for some reason. Mainly due to the coilovers on the front I'm sure. I too was a little dissapionted that it didn't have Ranchos in the rear at least. And yes I know they are a Genaric Rancho Branded shock, Not REAL Ranchos. But they still look cooler, And factory shocks have never been too good anyway.
