801A all the way...

Everything else's is just extra weight except the carbon fiber obv.

Although I will probably miss the heated steering wheel during Michigan winters...

The only normal option I am not getting this time is sunroof. I had a 15 Lariat FX4 with roof and did not like the full size non functioning roof,I think the shade was cheap too and lots of extra road also. The other is the cost for the time I used the roof,this new truck is so expensive I cant justify spending the extra $.

The heated steering wheel in thew 15 was nice and so was the sound system,and if the Raptor accelerates like my 15 FX4 in sport mode were in for some fun!!!

When you're already spending $50,000, what's another ten grand to get what you want. Ford really forces you to pick 802A. Months ago when the sheets came out this quickly became apparent, with the base 800A getting shit like the baby you-cheaped-out screen on the dash, and the garage door opener being a $8,000 option. :chicken: Seriously, a garage door opener should come standard on a $50k truck. :emotions122:

I'm an all-or-nothing kinda guy so it would pretty much be loaded or stripped. I tried coming up with some 801A builds but by the time I add what I want, I'm approaching $60k, and the difference to get 802A with all the trimmings is $3,767. No brainer, spend the extra $3,767. But the question is, do I even need 801A or not.

At a bare minimum for me it's going to be at least $53,005 for just a stripper 800A Supercrew with the front diff added. If I add the sub, it's $53,700. My 802A build is $62,130, so another $8,430 to get everything. Now essentially that's $8,430 worth of garbage like a bigger screen, heated seats, keyless entry, etc which is completely overpriced but regardless you have to do it anyway. :favorites13:

I agree 110% ,Ford wants to sell the 802A and I do not understand why Ford even offers 801A now that I have built so many different variants of the truck. The 801A does not offer enough to cost so much.

Power folding mirrors are a must, atleast for me. The amount of abuse those get if you don't pull them in. And the price of them are getting outrageous.

801A is the better value, you get ge 8 inch touchscreen and Apple car play which I use for almost everything on my current car.

It has free a nav from your phone. I also wanted leather seats, which weren't stand alone options.

Sure could I afford to finance 10k more of stuff yeah but do I really need or will miss it... probably not.
