Question What option would you add?

If you had the ability to add a new option, to the option list of the new Super Duties, what would it be?

I'd like to add HID headlights.

1st - Factory installed 5th wheel hitch and bed mounted plug receptical!
2nd - Factory installed Line-X

After all Ford sells these things as the ultimate towing machines, why not equip them as such!

Get some of the KR standard features as options. I'd imagine it'll happen in a couple of years.

Memory Mirrors/Seats/Pedals
Rear Door Storage

Black leather for a Lariet or a 6-speed option for the King Ranch package.

A second sun visor that was in my 99. Lariats have always had them wonder why they changed that. Strut are you going to change you 7 pin plug receptical from the back bumper to inside? I usually take my tailgate off and have a home made 2 x 8 covered that I use for the rear while towing.

firehawk, It's already done, I like my tailgate on and dis-like the wire draped over the tailgate....
Bought 7' of wire and a receptical, then fished it through the hole behind the tail light assy. Once under the truck I pealed pack the insulation on the wires behind the factory installed recpt. matched wires and tapped off, liquid electrical tape on the bare wires and once dry, wrapped witih plastic e-tape. Done

More flexibility in selecting options. The packages are fine, but you should be able to create your own packages from all available options.

Man I second this request. Armrest on the Captain's chairs!!! That is the one thing I dislike about my 08 F250.

That would be sweet. The airbags in my Freightliners are not only nice when loaded, but compared to a steel sprung same size truck, they make a much more comfortable and safer riding truck when it is empty.

I can see how it would simplify production with the packages the way they are, but I'm with you on this. I really wanted cloth seats, however I also wanted the power telescoping/folding mirrors and driver memory package, but couldn't get all of those things in the same truck.

I think some heated seats in the back for the quad captain chairs option would be pretty cool.
