LED headlights/Tail lights should be standard on XLT mid grade pkg and up. Ram, Chevy, GMC, Nissan, & Toyota have them either standard or easily optioned on lower grade trucks. I also hope the tail lights looks better, The current "Blind Spot Monitor" surrounded by tail light design looks bad to me. Especially since they have the words embossed on the light and the plastics dont flow well between light and sensor. Reminds me of the people with busted tail lights who stick red tape across them. Just looks cheap.

If they could stamp the tailgate to say "F O R D" instead of "F - 1 5 0" I think that would look a lot better as well. Nobody needs "F150" stamped 3 feet wide in the rear of their truck to know what it is...

More wheel choices would help. Current Xlt base, Lariat base, and chrome pkg base wheels look out of place and lazy. Would love 20's for regular XLT and Lariat without an appearance package.

Lastly, Wish the F150 could be had with an "Active-X" seating material similar to the Explorer and Expedition XLT. (simulated leather/Vinyl) would help with durability for those who use car seats in their vehicles and cause high wear on the seats.
You wrote exactly what i want to express and have some difficulties cause i'm french Canadian.

How about true dual exhaust as an option?

Im thinking this will become more common since it is now standard on Raptor and Limited. GM and Ram also do it

At least the push button start should be standard across the board I really dislike the flip out key keyfob like my 2019 Ranger has.
And that should cost relative pennies compared to the cost of the truck.

I've always preferred the Raptor style tailgate applique. I wish it could be ordered without any of the stamping like below. Second best would be FORD lettering like the Raptor's minus the Raptor badge.

I ordered my KR without the gaudy, tacky King Ranch applique on the tailgate.

Change the reliability of the vehicles so we don't have to bring it back numerous times to fix the simplest things that should have never been wrong out of the factory. As one whose did onsite vendor audits and surveys in the offshore oil industry I have seen so many oversights and miscommunications between engineering, sales and purchasing functions I often wanted to give up and sell pencils on street corners. Too many vendors is a guarantee of never-ending delays and wrong parts.
