Jas51102 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 You folks like or dislike the light colored wood grain trim in the 2011 Lariat's? I did not at first, but it seems to be growing on me. Wish Ford gave you an option of dark or light wood grain though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BS Racing Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Dislike that's why I didn't order a Lariat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jas51102 Posted March 27, 2011 Author Share Posted March 27, 2011 Dislike that's why I didn't order a Lariat. What did you end up ordering? I went ahead with the Lariat. Tuxedo black with black interior/flow through console. Almost got the Platinum, but just could not get used to that silver/chrome piece across the tailgate. The interior of the Platinum is sweet though. Add in the retractable running boards, and now I'm second guessing myself again, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twintornados Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 (edited) The King Ranch edition has the dark colored wood grain you seek....maybe you can get the dash pieces over the counter and make your own dark wood dash Lariat. Add on: And door trim pieces as well. Edited March 28, 2011 by twintornados Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msudawginmd Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 I didn't like the light wood grain and waffled between a Platinum and FX4. I decided on the FX4 as the Platinum had too many bells & whistles... who really needs heated rear seats and power running boards, among other thing. I ordered an FX4 SuperCrew with the 2.5L Ecoboost, FX4 luxury package, nav, sunroof, etc. Enjoy your new truck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdvaughn Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 (edited) I personaly think that ford really messed up with the light wood grain. Although it has grown on me some, it is the primary reason i went with the fx4 over the lariat. I really wish ford would give you some selectibility on things like these, but I guess thats why they make different models.

twintornados Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 .... I really wish ford would give you some selectibility on things like these..... You can get an F-series in a gazillion different variations...as for the trim pieces, walk over to the parts counter and order 'em up. Then take your removed pieces and sell 'em on ebay to someone that wants to dress up their XL..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V8-X Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 I hate wood grain, no matter what car it's in, period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANTAUS Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 I too do not care much for the wood trim on vehicles either. I mean, the whole concept of taking wood grain, and applying it into a cabin to warm it up, I just never quite took. Then again, the whole inside of my home is decorated in simplistic modern, so warm isn't something I care for in my ambiance. I'm find with the metalic and piano black trim pieces.

djansma Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 (edited) a little light for my taste but I got a lariat anyway I like the rest of the truck Edited March 31, 2011 by djansma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
