I cannot tell for sure but looks like even up to the Lariat model has...HALOGEN amber rear and backup lights. Can anyone confirm? If so, a hell of a step backwards! Looks like the Raptor is full LED.

Yes, you're correct! On many 2018-2020 F-150 models, including Lariats, halogen rear and backup lights were standard. It wasn’t until the higher trims, like the Raptor or as part of special lighting packages, that full LEDs were offered. A lot of owners upgrade to LED for better brightness, but it’s surprising they didn’t include it across the board!

I can't speak for the 2024 but the 2019+ models have standard rear bulbs unless you get the copilot 360 package. Then you get the LED rear lights along with the radar unit built into the tail lights. The 2024 models may be the same. I have an XL with the STX package and the copilot 360 was an additional option you could get. So, it may not be trim related.

My '16 F-150 drove me nuts, everything but the in bed lights and little spotter light was incandecent. Like a pick one color already.

I have since converted the bed cargo light and license plate light. Tails and reverse lights don't really bother me. At least now when I unlock my truck everything is the same color of white.
