[QUOTE="ZWilson07, post: 11170916, member: 121388"] xlt will more than likely be your basic cloth seats, you will get the upgraded gauges that has the rpm gauge, chrome trim rings around the ac openings, 60/40 style front seats, could have manual windows and locks but more than likely will be auto locks and windows. More than likely the upgraded chrome wheels, fog lights, auto mirrors, etc. fx4, you will have a completely different interior, leather with different accent colors usually carbon fiber, completly different gauges, auto shifter is now on floor in center console instead of on the column of the xlt. FX4 wheels, skid plates, usually different shocks, sometimes different front bumper such as being painted instead of chrome, things such as that. lariet, different wheels again, gauges go back to xlt style but have chrome trim rings around them, heated mirrors, different leather for interior, different interior color and accent such as wood grain instead of carbon fiber. Different wheels again alittle different ac and stereo setup, etc etc. IMO it just depends on what you need it for. If your going to be using the truck at all and for the 04-08 years, I wouldnt do a lariet. To me it just seems to richy of a style to be using more than a DD, plus the wood grain in it and chrome trim rings on gauges dont really appeal to me but thats just my opinion. Also not a big fan of their wheels they have standard. If it was me and I was going to use the truck, id try and find an xlt with manual windows and locks in 4x4 but thats just me. The fx4 has alot of upgrades vs the standard xlt but you acourse will pay a higher price tag. Also im pretty sure you can only have FX4's and Lariets in the 5.4 liter, where s you can get the 4.6 in xlt. Again depends on how you use the trucks and the pro's and con's of each of those engines and what years you will be sticking to. Alot of the 5.4 problems were supposed to be taken care of by the later years but still somethings you need to keep in mind about the 2 different engines. It'd help if you specified more about what your wanting and using the truck for to help narrow down the answer. Goodluck lariet [/QUOTE]
