US and CAD spec 2024 RCSB differences

[Blue14thGenF150]

i've been browsing the Canadian configurator and it seems the FX4 package is available on the canadian website but the US isn't.

can someone shed light on this? what other differences am i missing?

Can confirm, I ordered and received my RCSB with FX4 up here in Canada. As far as I know that’s the only big difference between the CAN/US order guides for RCSB.
Not sure why Ford would offer it in one market but not the other.

Lots of head scratching decisions made by Ford lately. Dont get me wrong i like the simplifying part but not offering certain options/items/engines in certain models dont make sense to me. I'm 100% sure money is somehow behind it.

its good you replied! i have some questions i would love to have answered!

does the fx4 package eliminate the rake found in non fx4 package equipped models?

can you look at the suspension and see which brand they're from or if they are custom ford manufactured units?

how's the ride quality?

how's the sound insulation?

how are the headlights? are they bright?

how good is the sound system?

are the tail lamps (break lights) halogen or LED? i got confused when i saw the led headlamp option on the configurator.

what modifcations are you planning?

FX4 still has rake, I had mine leveled 2” up front so no more rake. The shocks are just OEM Ford ones, nothing fancy like Bilsteins or anything.

Have no complaints with ride quality, smooth on the highway and on gravel service roads. Sound insulation is so/so. Not as quiet inside at highways speeds compared to my previous ‘18 XLT, but miles better than my Bronco was.

Headlights are very good, even the fogs are LED so they give out a good amount of light as well. Tail lights are still halogen. All 2024 F150s get LED headlights as standard, lower models still have halogen tails.

For me the sound system is fairly decent considering there’s only 2 door speakers and 2 A-pillar tweeters. I’d say it’s better than the base 6 speaker setup that was in my Bronco. I’m not a huge audiophile though, but overall it’s clear with a decent amount of bass.

So far I’ve done a level and added 33” KO2s. Added a couple creature comforts inside like leather steering wheel and adjustable lumbar support. Planning on a custom leather interior, might get around to it in the fall. Maybe some other off road mods like upgraded skid plates and an ARB dual compressor mounted in the bed. I currently have a portable ARB single.

I also have another question. The leaf springs, or singular leaf spring i should say, is a problem on 2024 RCSBs, does your FX4 package truck also have a singular leaf spring or has more than one? attaching a picture would be delightful
