It's preproduction, and on vehicles on display it is VERY typical for them to lock them up or down. The other one in the distance(Stealth Performance) had them locked down if you pay attention to the video.

I still have yet to see any documentation (aside from what the guy in the video claimed) that the platinum has the HO motor. has anyone see this printed somehwere?
I haven't, just a theory on my part. It might full well have the slightly factory tuned non-HO motor that the 18-21 Platinum has. Eitherway, mine will be tuned, so the factory power level is somewhat pointless to me. The HO has VERY few differences than the non-HO, and is actually capable tune only of slightly less than the Normal. Hoping the 22 doesn't have the locked ECM that the 21+ 150's do. 1st world problems.

The Platinum, KR, and Ltd do NOT get the 440 Hp motor, they get 400hp. Someone posted the official Ford prelim tech specs several pages back. Only Stealth and TL get HO engine. And XL, XLT, STX only gets 380hp.

What is up with the hideous Platinum factory rims? The 18'-19' years IMO were the nicest looking rims. All one piece forged looking rim. Since 20' on they come with some two-tone rims that look no better than my wife's Mazda. If I'm paying Platinum level prices I would expect a nicer wheel package than what they are putting out now.

They have a chrome wheel for platinum as well as the two tone wheel.

Nice they are bumping the KR and the Limited factory tune. That makes sense. Also giving the others a bump. Ford is just playing games with the tuning. Nothing is changing in reality.

Just throwing this out there, the f150 lightning is confirmed to offer cooled seats and the set up for the climate ctrl are exactly the same. The order guide should be out within the next 3-4 weeks.
It’s possible but in the YouTube video with a ‘22 Expy he says that it’s only heated seats. We’ll know in due time for sure.

He says it only has heated seats but he never touches the button. I wonder if he just assumed it had only heated seats because of the single icon? If you watch videos of the Mustang Mach-E you'll see they also have a single icon but then when you touch it, it can go into an automatic mode where I'm assuming based on the inside air temp sensor, it will give you either heating or cooling settings.

Can't afford this now, but maybe the good lord above will raise my fortunes enough to snag this big boy. Jk, but this black label in all black is stunning.

Here's a better video that shows how the single icon works for both heating and cooling.

There we go. End of discussion it seems.

The expy is already the sec most expensive of the class, only because the wagoneer prices went up slightly. The prices shouldn't go up too much hopefully.
