There is a bit more "bling" with the FX4; color-keyed front grill, "leather" interior, instrument gear ring bezels, some graphite weave on the dash panel, center console, tubular running boards, deep-rubber floor mats F&R, etc. Probably more is included, but you get the picture.

Functionally, as a 4X4, it's as stated in the previous post.

Actually depends on what year; Fx4 was an upgrade option then they made it a trim level option (Fx4 Luxury in 09 IIRC) like the Lariat trim; then in 2010 it went back to an upgrade package

Yep. Rancho shocks and skid plates.

Now why does't Ford have a *%#$ locker? I can't tell you how many times I spin my tires turning around on farm roads... Its pretty bad when you have to run in 4x4 to get back on the road out of a field.

The F150 FX4 has an e-locker. Don't know about the 250 FX4. I have an XLT.
