New Ride!
Finally convinced the wife that a new truck was a good idea. Brought home a brand new '09 SuperCrew FX4 with the luxury interior package including leather seats and the sync package.
Check back in another six or eight months after I figure out how to use all of the Sync gadgetry!

Congrats!
But I don't think you got the actual "Luxury" package option because I don't see any painted door handles or painted mirror caps that comes with the Luxury package. You must have just gotten the standard leather seat option.

SteveVFX4 - you might be right. I'll check the window sticker tonight and clarify.
Prior to this my daily driver was a 7 year old Jeep Wrangler with a soft top, 35" tires and a 4" lift ... so by comparison the entire FX4 is a luxury package to me!

SteveVFX4 - good eye, you really know your stuff and are of course correct - I have the Sport Leather Trimmed Captains Chairs.

Not sure if they just keep changing color names on us or what, but the color of this one is Dark Blue Pearl Clearcoat.
My kids insisted on a dark blue color .... for tailgating at PSU games!
