Let me start by saying I have searched the web and this forum and I can’t seem to find a straight answer…

does the 2021+ F150 XLT 302a have a heated steering wheel?
Some videos on YouTube suggest that it has an “automatic” heated steering wheel that there is no actual on or off button but when the temperature is cold enough it will come on automatically. Can anybody confirm this?

My 302A does not have a heated steering wheel. I miss it a little from my previous vehicle, but not enough to do anything about it. The dash vents are perfectly placed to warm my hands.

yea that’s what I thought. But these YouTubers like to say it has heated seats and steering wheel when they are reviewing… ??‍♂

XLT does not have any option for a heated wheel, you have to move to lariat before that option is available.
No automatic version either.

I wouldn’t hold all YouTubers to a high degree of accuracy or expertise ;)

The ford build and price, order guides or info from your dealer are your best bets for accurate info.

I have an XLT 302a and it doesn't have a heated wheel. If I could have bought an XLT 302a with a heated wheel I definitely would as my wife's car has it and it's a nice feature just like heated seats. As far as believing YouTube folks, that is like believing the evening news. Mostly BS.

Ditto here. I went with 302A as the lowest trim to get heated seats but couldn’t justify the price hike to Lariat to get the heated steering wheel. I miss it from my old BMW because I hate driving with winter gloves on.

yeah I couldn’t justify the price jump to the lariat I know you get a bunch of other features but I’m already at $61,000 for an XLT ?
I’ll get me a nice pair of leather gloves LOL

Lariat 502A is the lowest trim for the heated wheel IIRC.

I live in Western WA. Heated steering wheel was not a priority (If I lived in an area with 4+ months of snow, maybe). My XLT FX4 after it was all said and done was $64K. Wasn't going higher to get a Lariat.
