Nice looking truck!! I have an integrated step in my F150 and love it. Use it all the time. The older my knees get the less I want to jump off the tailgate. :-)

FWIW, towhaul mode and sport mode or whatever they call the checkered flag mode don’t do much really. Pulling a trailer, the only discernable difference is it does hold a lower gear better on descents. Up shifts and top gear for the load, speed and conditions are the same.

It may lock out cylinder de-activation as well. Probably does, but there’s no indicator for cyl drop mode anymore and the switch between modes is indiscernible and no deactivation on the 4 banger anyway.
