STX Appearance Package for 2017 F-Series Trucks

Ford has announced that it will be offering a new appearance package for three of its 2017 model year pickups – specifically the 2017 F-150 as well as F-250 and F-350 Super Duty truck models. Called the STX Appearance Package, it's intended to slot between the entry-level XL work truck and mid-level XLT models. According to information from Ford, the package is designed to give "entry-level truck customers a new option to find the truck of their dreams with great infotainment features and stylish design at an affordable price."

"STX is for customers who want the utility of an F-Series truck in a stylish, well-optioned package at a competitive price," said Doug Scott, Ford truck group marketing manager.
