At least Bronco wheels are cheap and plentiful on FB Marketplace. I doubt the average shopper knows this though.The XL is indeed down to steel wheels
That is a stock photo, because the order guide states different? Not sure which it correct.$1300 more for my lariat and it looks like the headlights have not changed for 2026
At least from the picture.
base price is slightly less. Sand color not $395, convenience package and destination or the biggest increases.
along with some nickle and dime increases in options

I would call the order guide ambiguous. It is definitely a new generated image as it has the chrome piece in the grill.That is a stock photo, because the order guide states different? Not sure which it correct.
I just pulled up the dealer order guide and it is indeed manual, until you get to a Lariat or Raptor.I would call the order guide ambiguous. It is definitely a new generated image as it has the chrome piece in the grill.
the configurator has some issues generating images like with the bedliner
someone will find out which is right.![]()
the reason I say ambiguous is that it is not listed in the major changes section in the 2026 guideI just pulled up the dealer order guide and it is indeed manual, until you get to a Lariat or Raptor.
While not really needed I would have liked the power folding mirrors.Just noticed the XLT now only comes with "manual" folding mirrors not like the 25 that came with power folding! Other than that, I loaded up both a 25 and 26 and tried to select the same options, price looks to be about the same give or take a few bucks.
agree, Ford has been known to be wrong on both accounts LOLthe reason I say ambiguous is that it is not listed in the major changes section in the 2026 guide
although it also does not say there is a change to active x trimmed seats either
and while both the xl and Xlt list reflector headlamps in the 2026 order guide, there is no specification for the headlamps in the lariat section
you are correct, normally that omission would mean it has the same spec as the lower trim
so I would hold out some hope for the 2026 lariat to have the same head lights as the 2025, given the configurator
