Ford F-Series STX Returns for MY 2017, Now Available On Super Duty Pickup Trucks

For customers who need the work-ready XL and some of the bells and whistles of the slightly pricier XLT trim level, FoMoCo has got you covered with the SXT. And good golly, do you get a lot of stuff for the dollar bills you’re charged for the SXT package.

Priced from $35,615, the 2017 Ford F-150 SXT is all the truck most of us need. “STX is for customers who want the utility of an F-Series truck in a stylish, well-optioned package at a competitive price,” declared Doug Scott, Ford truck group marketing manager.

The goodies included in this trim-level-called-appearance-package are plentiful: 20-inch machined aluminum wheels with gray-painted pockets, black billet-style grille with body-color surround and black mesh insert, body-color front fascia and front and rear bumpers, privacy glass, fog lamps, and STX Sport Box decal.

Once you step inside this full-size light-duty workhorse, you’re greeted by black sport cloth seats with Flow-through Console, as well as SYNC 3 infotainment with an 8-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and manual driver and passenger lumbar support.

And yes, the not-exactly-XL-but-neither-XLT package is available in SuperCab or SuperCrew configurations. And yes, the STX can be had regardless of engine choice (2.7 EcoBoost, 3.5 EcoBoost, 5.0 V8). In the case of the 2017 Ford Super Duty, the STX package is applicable for whatever engine floats your boat the most: the 6.2-liter V8 or the 6.7-liter Power Stroke diesel.

Speaking of the 2017 Ford Super Duty STX, the F-250 with the said package starts from $34,910. The more capable F-350 STX, however, is a bit more at $36,080. The Super Duty STX prides itself on a bright chrome grille, chrome fender and rear step bumpers, STX fender vent badge, unique aluminum wheels, cruise control, bright hub covers (single rear wheel Super Duty only), and a basic AM/FM audio system with MP3 capability and a CD player.
