Options consist of:
4X4
XLT Package
Power Bucket Seats
Stabilizer Package
Trailer Towing Package with controller
TorqShift Automatic
4.10 rear end with Limited Slip
Also got the gooseneck/fifth wheel hitch installed today and have a Fold-A-Cover bed cover coming in a couple of weeks.
It was all the research and opinions from this board that coaxed me in to the V-10. Cost per mile and price differential between gas and diesel.

I'm in Midland, TX.
It's my company truck, but it will be personalized somewhat. Have not decided as of yet but I'm sure it will end up with a better muffler. Have to do something with the wheels and tires. Looking at some Pro Comp rims.
I thought I ordered it pretty well, but it looks like I assumed too much from my old 2003 Super Duty. Therefore it has no keyless entry or twilight headlights. Minor things, but keyless entry is mandatory! Looks like a Viper alarm is coming real soon.
Looking at an in-dash Navigation/Ipod Control/XM/Bluetooth unit so I dont have friggin wires everywhere. I drive alot and need pretty much everything at my fingertip.
Just a little at a time.

I'm going to do a shameless plug here, but go Pioneer. I have a Pioneer system in my truck and my dad liked it so much that we put the same one in my dad's 03 Porsch(although his was the upgraded headunit). It has all the items you want and more.

I had Kenwood's exceleron line before my Pioneer Z2, and Pioneer blows away Kenwood, it really does. The only thing that I really liked with Kenwood was the Music Keg, but iPod took over that niche market in vehicles so Kenwood losts it's biggest attraction. However, one thing that Pioneer always had(even in my dad's day) was the Pioneer units always had the neat graphics compared to the others and that's true.
