The Lariat is definitely 2 tone gray.
It was always noted as black, but many many pics definitely showed what you describe.

Question I dont recall reading about is:
Is the interior all black or 2 tone seats?
Also how do the cameras compare to ICE. Still shitty?
Our Lariat has two-tone seating.

What do you think about the interior? My order sheet says black and build and price shows black
FYI the Lariat only has one interior: two tone gray.

Something I was just reading on another forum, but does the Lariat have the ability to turn the propulsion sound on and off? Was reading it was a Platinum only feature.

From what I have seen, Ford restricted the propulsion sound to the Platinum. No idea why. Maybe they were trying to find a way to justify the $13k price bump over the Lariat.

Congratulations! Could you please post some dimensions of the frunk? I have not been able to find any specific dimensions anywhere just the overall capacity. I am particularly interested in the height. Thanks in advance!

I strongly suspect that there is a ForScan setting that will enable the propulsion sound in other trims.

I know it is to each their own, I'm just struggling with anyone that wants to hear an ICE noise while driving this truck. Put your window down and just listen to the rubber on the road.

On the other hand I'm very excited to see if Forscan can read and make updates for these trucks like they do the ICE and what we might be able to turn on - like Bambi mode.

That's the next thing I'm looking for someone to try. The lightning has an OBDII port and an AsBuilt profile, so I would be surprised if you're not able to edit the ForScan codes.

I also think the Lightning codes will be similar to the ICE codes. I compared the codes from the Powerboost F150 and there was some overlap with the Lightning.

ICE noise, no. Jetsons noise, yes!

Same. It’s not black. Definitely two tone. It’s nice. The denim look along the doors and dash are harder than I’d prefer, but given this is a truck, it’ll probably hold up better. I’m not crazy about the performance of my ventilated seats yet. I rented a Lariat years ago and remember how strong the cooling sensation was back then. I’m not getting that on ours.

My 21 F150 Platinum never had the intense cooling seats like they use to have. Ford must have changed the power to them. I remember feeling like I urinated on myself with the old cooling seats. Those haven't been around for a few years at least.
