I thought the overhead bin was for the crack pipe? Cup holders hold a roll pretty well.

No no no, the overhead compartment is for your tacos.

Spit cup.

That’s exactly what I was gonna say.

True story - I actually keep my weed there. An emergency taco would be a good addition though.

Under that mat in the bottom, is where you can insert your key to start the truck. I had to do that once: wife in car so kept it running, key in my pocket, went into a store. Truck would no longer recognize the key when I came back. Called dealer, they told me about this spot to stick the key in. Did so, and that fixed it.

Not correct. The place to install key is under one of the round cup holders (the one furthest from the dash).

Usually, I pour a few ice cubes in there and some Hi-C, obviously you gotta use a super long-ass straw for this type of mission. ? ?

This is a picture for reference, in case your imagination left you stranded on the side of a mid-post.

I keep my spare shifter stowed there. Remember. "Two is one, one is none."

I pushed the button. It folded down

You are supposed to do this every night when you put your truck to bed.

To get the maximum use out of the motorized shifter, you need a 3-year-old in the driver seat pretending to drive. My shifter gets used about 20 times every time in that case.

Kinda dumb that this electric motorized folding shifter is always included, but it's like $1000 to get a hinge and extra plastic bits for the "work surface". There is no logical reason for this, only marketing reasons to upsell a package. They should include the folding lever only with the work surface package, OR always include the folding console... which is, of course, what they should have done. Console lid is very thick and a complete waste of space without the fold option.

I agree its fairly expensive to buy the "bits" but like the towing mirrors, if you order it with at the time, its so much cheaper. Its so much cheaper that it has in fact kept me from buying those parts in the past because it doesn't make any sense at that point.

First 2 F150's, no tow mirrors, work surface, or bed lights. 3rd one, tow mirrors, no work surface, no bed lights. max tow (trying to see how much payload I could get). Current one, tow mirrors, work surface, bed light package, tailgate step, no max tow. (all at the cost of about less than 100 lbs in payload)

I don't specifically need max tow from my calculations, and I know there is some weight savings there, and I won't miss the 100 lbs of payload, so i think I'm good now.

I do miss the bed camera and the rain sensing wipers though.

Not in my '21. It's in the fold down shifter cubby.

Holds a midsize glock pretty well in a nice ready position when you don't have it on your person. For those of us with and who use the work surface, best to not make a habit of storing anything in long-term.

A G27 in a holster lives in that cubby 98% of my drive time.

Not what this video shows. The pic above is from a you-tube video concerning a 2021 F150. My 2024 Key Fob goes in the same place - cup holder.

As mentioned, factory designed Chick fil A (and McDonald’s) french fry holder. Engineering genius.
