There are a few reasons I opted for the Lariat.
1. Dark Stone isn't a King Ranch color
2. I really don't like the painted bumpers they went to for '08. The paint on the front bumper of myF150 was rock chipped pretty bad after just a few months.
3. Building and pricing both trucks, equipped as idnetical as I could spec them, had the KR costing $2,200 more. The new and improved Chaparral leather is very nice, but that's a lot of money for seats and badging. We're not all as rich as Fredvon4
!I know that my seats are partly "pleather" (mostly in the rear) but that's OK with me. If money was no object, I would have got the King Ranch and bought some chrome "take off " bumpers from a truck accessory place. I do like that Dark Copper color almost as much as Dark Stone.

i am pretty sure i am going to order a f250 kr in dark copper 4x4 with the v10.
i see the towing ratings are the same in srw config so probably go with the 250 as i will never wear out an axle and most miles will be free of any trailer.
