I'm sure you could do a trade with someone who owns the same color.

The step adds 50lbs of weight of the tailgate had the step on my 2018 and never used it

I refuse to buy a tailgate that uses a push button to open. Must be why I don't have a step ?

I just don't understand how 50# makes or breaks a tow rig. You should have a 10% fudge fact in anyways

If I had to take a 3lb crap so I could put an 18 pack in the cooler I would buy a Super Duty.

Never tried it, but sure it could be done. The “computers” are all the same, it’s just as matter of telling them what kind of tailgate is present. Prob most settings are in the body control module.

Velocity blue? I’d be interested in trading, but I’d hate to think about how expensive the shipping would be.
