F-150 XL

Even sticking to the base F-150 XL trim gives you most of the features you truly need. The exterior has automatic headlights and 17-inch steel wheels.

Inside, there is cloth upholstery on the 40/20/40 bench seat, vinyl flooring, a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, and air conditioning. Standard tech includes a 4.2-inch central display, a 2.3-inch driver information display, an auxiliary input, and four speakers.

You can further customize the XL trim with a 101A package for power accessories, MyKey, smartphone app integration, and enhanced technology. Add the FX4 Off-Road Package to make your F-150 excel off-road.

F-150 XLT

Upgrading to the XLT trim adds the 101A package, fog lights, alloy wheels, and a keypad entry system. You also get carpeting, rear privacy glass, lumbar adjustment for the front seats, extra interior storage, and 4-way adjustable headrests. This trim can be personalized with the Mid 301A or Luxury 302A package or one of the standalone options, like a sunroof, blind spot monitor, and navigation.

F-150 Lariat

The F-150 Lariat gives you most features from the 302A package along with front tow hooks, 18-inch wheels, puddle lamps, and power-folding mirrors. Inside, you get an 8-inch information screen for the driver, leather upholstery, ventilated front seats, and dual-zone automatic climate control. The Lariat offers a 502A package for more advanced features that add to your truck’s convenience and technology.

F-150 King Ranch

If you want to drive the Ford F-150 King Ranch, you need to pick a SuperCrew cabin. This trim adds heated rear seats, an integrated trailer brake control, and many of the options from the lower trims. It also has Western styling that Virginia drivers will love.

F-150 Platinum

The F-150 Platinum is more contemporary in its luxury with power-deployable running boards, an aluminum interior trim, and 20-inch wheels.
