For the '99+ superdutys it was a gastank skid plate, red colored boots on the standard shocks and the gaudy stickers.

'04+ F-150s is a separate trim package level

'97-'03 F-150s got a 17inch rim, fog lights, sticker, and skid plates.

For our years of trucks just a sticker, maybe different colored shocks.

My 94 F-250 is the "off road". This had no effect on me buyin it. However, it has a skid plates covering the transfer case, and both gas tanks. Also, mine has 1 ton leaves in the rear, but it still has 3/4 ton axles. Others that I have seen (just 4x4) don't have the skid plates and a lighter rear suspension. And it can go off road.
