Help Me Spec my Pro SR Canada

[speedy123]

My Canadian dealer can now retail order me an SR Pro, base price $59,900 Cdn ($45k USD). It qualifies for a $10k govt incentive where I live (5k federal 5k provincial). That now seems a smokin’ deal to me. So despite worries about short range, it isn’t worth the effective $25k jump to ER. I’d been thinking XLT but that it $10k more than Pro.


I think I’d go with the red exterior. Here’s what I want to add, can you recommend specific products and help me spec this out the way YOU would if it were your money:

1) bed step of some kind as I won’t have the XLT one in the tailgate
2) spray in bed liner- get Ford one or aftermarket
3) tonneau cover: something cheaper but durable and able to fold or roll out of the way
4) leather steering wheel cover. Hate the plastic pro wheel. Has anyone figured out to get a heated wheel going on a Pro? Are there wheel covers that are heatable that aren’t crap? I will miss a heated wheel that XLT has.
5) some equivalent cheaper or better version of the Ford mobile power cord which seems very expensive at $650

Is there anything else I really need to make this a family vehicle for commuting and weekend cottage runs. I don’t need 9.6 Pro power, and think I’ll pass on Tow tech (although 360 camera would be nice)

Thanks folks

Oh, and running boards.

Tow tech adds heated mirrors. I find the 360 cameras a must have. This new gen mirrors are garbage. Give me back the wide angle lense.

whoa whoa whoa... when were pro's made available in Canada?

Apparently just in the last couple of weeks. Not visible on the Ford web site but dealers can apparently now do a factory order for a retail customer. I saw a couple of dealerships in Ontario (Barrie Ford, Ed Learn Ford) that have ads out now for the Pro. Waiting to find out whether a Pro ER is orderable, just for comparison, but not eligible for the iZev rebates.

I swapped the steering wheel on my Pro to the lariat one and it's much nicer. I haven't gotten the heated steering wheel working yet (haven't bothered looking again since it's summer) but I've heard from some people on the forum that people have gotten it to work with a pro. I'm going to double check my wiring as maybe I messed something up.

Sounds like my truck. A 23 Pro, at 22 pricing....only options were red paint, spray in bed liner, and the over priced portable charger. Have added a trifold tonneau, running boards, splash guards, rubber bed mat, window visors, and a grill screen. Don't think I want or need anything else....really enjoy this vehicle.

Only recently, you can spec one at your dealer only. I just looked at Ford.ca and the Pro is not on there yet.

I highly recommend going with Line-X for a spray in bed liner. It carries a lifetime warranty, so it's worth the peace of mind.

Tonneau cover wise I recommend the BAK Revolver X4s (80339). It's not the cheapest, but I think it's a great overall value and has the features you want plus the top is reinforced so it's more secure.

Doesn't Ford offer the tailgate step option for Pro's in Canada? It does in the US.

I ordered my Canadian Pro with a tailgate step. It was a $430 option I believe. I've got a bad knee so I asked about it early.
