I think we’ve reached peak technological improvements as far as ICE trucks go. From now until we all go all electric, there won’t be a sense to upgrade unless wear and tear takes it’s toll. There won’t be anything you can’t get through OTA upgrades that newer trucks will provide. It was an incredible jump from a 2006 truck to a 2022 truck. I have a feeling this will be it for me until an all electric solution is available to general population and not just the wealthy, if that ever happens.
If that makes any sense.

I'm hoping my '22 will be a 10-year truck. And at that point, I'll be looking at an EV option to replace it.

I stand corrected, it could be a 300A trim if it's not XL. The climate controls are single zone, which 301A and 302A don't have, they have the dual zone.

That steering wheel is throwing me off. If XLT, it should be leather right?

Just double checked the Ford website because I wasn't sure. Looks like 300A and 301A have the urethane steering wheel. Leather doesn't happen until 302A.

Cooking burgers and hotdogs is not BBQing, it's grilling! Thx, All of Texas!
What I can see of the taillights reminds me of Toyota, we'll see what they look like when uncovered.
I was thinking the same thing.... the Tacoma tail lights.....

I wouldn’t get too wrapped up on the way these things are optioned. A lot of times these prototypes have whatever parts thrown on them for testing purposes. They aren’t exactly built the way they’re packaged for retail customers

The only thing we care about is can we transplant the APIM (especially into the MME)!?

Those taillights look like a lightning and a tundra got it on.

man that wheel looks cheap
What’s crazy is a truck with that with that wheel costs $51,000 LMAO in an XL. When I test drove mine I was like “why am I going to pay 50 grand for this” that was until the 5.0 roared merging onto the highway. Then it was easier for me to stomach.
