You will have the switch (push button) only if you have the TC...No switch for the engine torque.
The switch is right beside the 4X4 electric switch....

Jam, I have no argument that Ford indicated that all would have it in their early press releases, etc.

My point is that I do not believe there are two different types available as posted by someone else: 1) one, being standard that is engine torque management; and 2) a second being optional that operates as conventional traction control by using the ABS to modulate brakes to the slipping wheel.

I hope you are successful getting Ford to add it to your truck.

According to Ford they are two seperate systems. I know I did not have the switch. I argued the point and they bit the bullet and installed the other type in my truck. I tested it and it works great...I did loose 1 mpg with it though.....
