So the bottom line another model year with nothing really new. How boring.
We're still waiting to see the front grille designs. Perhaps some subtle changes

Makes me happy to have my 2025 XL!
I think the navigation was removed from the XL trim in 2024 though, maybe not. My previous 2023 XL had it.
My 24 XL has navigation, though I think it’s the connected version, not built in. Came with 1 year free trial.

I wonder if Ford got feedback from fleet buyers and they questioned the digital dash on the XL. With how many of them you see not as personal vehicles, certainly could be a valid reason if they're asking why are we paying for this if it's just going to be beat up on a job site or at a municipality.

The super duty still has the lower trims with the 4.2-in productivity screen.

It would be nice if they make the digital dash on the xl an option. It never cross my mind that ford would go back to analog cluster.

Disappointed but not surprised. Ford is definitely making it easy to keep the old ones which is good for my wallet.

2025 F150 KR (past: 2016 F150 XLT, 2013 F150 XLT)
I know it is a niche case but moonroof is optional now on KR, which is great! (depending on the price ofc)
My only gripe with my '25 KR was that I could not order it without moonroof. Everything else can stay only thing I would have loved to get rid of.

Anyhow it looks on PB KR 7.2kW is not the standard anymore, only optional. That sux for MY26 buyers.

I’m excited to see the Argon Blue Metallic color come to the f150. I work at ford Kentucky Truck Plant where the Superduty is built and the argon blue is by far my favorite color but i don’t need a truck that big

Does it replace the Antimatter Blue? The Antimatter Blue looks awesome when clean and in perfect light but otherwise it looks black.

As expected, the 2026 will still have Sync 4. Looks like I'll be keeping my truck at least another year.

I've been holding on ordering/finding a 2025 in the wait for 2026. Argon Blue may just make it worth the wait for me to match another one of my cars.

I had put this in another thread for the XL, but it is likely more appropriate here. Copy/paste below, but I've put in bold the ones I think are the ones that I would need an answer on before I go find a 2025 on the lot or go ahead with my 2026 order...

For XL I see...

  • 12" dash cluster "Productivity Screen" in 2025 has been downgraded to the 4" dash cluster display with analog tach/speedo
    • From an aesthetic perspective, I think this is actually preferred to me, but I'm curious what functionality is missing if any?
  • 12" Center Display for SYNC 4 for 2026 vs 12" LCD Capacitive Touchscreen with Swipe for 2025.
    • What's the difference here?
  • It looks like for XL "Pro Fleet" there is an option for 40/console/40 for the front seats
    • Is this an option for regular cab? I'd prefer to have a center console than a bench.
  • Removed "camera only evasive steering assist" and replaced with "Camera only"
    • What's this? It sounds like it may just be the same thing but worded differently.
  • Navigation has been deleted
    • I assume no Ford-native navigation - only CarPlay type options?
  • Shows "Tow Haul" removed from 5.0 on XL.
    • Maybe I don't know exactly what "tow haul" is, but is this saying that you can't option a tow hitch on a truck??
  • Atlas Blue has been removed as options (others as well, but ones that were available to an XL in 2025)
  • Argon Blue Metallic added as new color
    • I for one am excited for this if it's the color I think it is. Looks like it should match either BMW's Interlagos Blue (a slight purple undertone) or Le Mans Blue (no purple).
  • Grill changed to "black" vs "black coast to coast"
    • I have no idea what the difference is here - are there any actual changes?
  • Removed bed storage boxes

I'd like to see it in person.

My Maverick is Atlas Blue, even thought when I ordered it the color selection was Velocity Blue. The 25 that I ordered (that doesn't seem to have been ordered by the dealer) was Atlas Blue too. I hope it's a good looking color and not too dark.
