I found this over the weekend and wanted to share.

It looks like it still is in the works since some of the pictures are incomplete.

My question is about the seating options in the Lariat, you can choose from 40/20/40 and 40/console/40. From the pictures that show up when you click on that option, it seems that they are backwards.

Isn’t 40/20/40 the option with a flip-up console in the middle with a seat and 40/console/40 having the newly redesigned console without the option for a center seat? Is that correct?

 

I used THIS link at Bobby William's ProFleetSales site to spec out the truck I put on order Saturday. No pictures but it does get the spec codes and pricing correct.

FWIW.

The site is still in BETA I'm sure and will have a few glitches like the image issue.
The 250 build seemed good enough but it took a few trys.

My understanding is the same as yours. The 20 is the flip up.
Previous models with the 40/console/40 had the standard console so I think it's safe to assume the new "flow through" console is part of the 40/console/40 option.

 

if anyone is feeling generous and wants to send me oh about $63,400.00 that would be great. I take paypal haha

 

Using the above links I get an approximate $6,000 difference between like equipped 350s and 450s Lariats. Is a 2011 450 worth that much more?

 

Whoops!!! Make that a $4,000 difference between the 450 and 350.

 

I looked at the specs sheet.
I'll list the crew 350 drw 4x4 vs 450 drw 4x4.

Conventional towing - both 16,000
Fifth-wheel towing - 20,300 vs 24,400
Max GVWR - 13,000 vs 13,050
Payload - 4,700 vs 4,920

It says the 450 only offers 17 in wheels but I don't know about that.
I haven't put much research into the DRW trucks because I don't need that much truck right now.
The sheet also states "specs subjet to change" lol.

 

So you can only get a 3.55 electronic locking differential, no more 3.73? Hmmm That sounds like a way to get an increase in MPG no? I guess you probably won't even know the difference.

 

I would think with the trans being 6 speed now, that a 3.55 would be sufficent enough for that big of a truck.

 

My truck fully loaded Lariat came out to $61,055! Which is $4,000 more than my current truck. I think I may have snuck a few extra options in there though. The retarded thing is, is that these numbers are meaningless. Knock about $10,000 of MSRP and now you are in the ballpark.

 

Ya good point, I didn't think about that. But my buddy has a duramax he has a 6spd allison with a 3.73 rear. I would think it would be an option at least.

 

Does anyone know about what tdstuck was reffering to? I ordered mine with console in the middle not the mini seat. It is stated as 40/console/40 seat on my order sheet. I believe thats with a center console in between front seats? I hope I got that right? Website has it backwards I hope?? Please chime in guys....

 

When I first posted this information the photos were reversed for the seating. When you selected the 40/console/40 on the Lariat for example, the 40/20/40 photo would be posted. They have since corrected this issue.

 

Thanks, I'll check it out again. As of last nite it was still wrong thats what had me worried...

 

I think it still has bugs because when I choose XLT apperance package, it wanted to remove 4x4 as an option.
Later, it didn't want to remove 4x4 but it wanted to mess with the axel ratio.
I chose 4x4 and I think the dealer put the apperance package on my order so I better get 4x4. I don't have my papers with me to be sure that the apperance package exists on my order.
