They added the garage door opener system to the visor. What year and what do they call it?

Good catch. It's for 2012 and I believe it's called HomeLink or something.

Also, you shouldn't say that the Heated and Cooled seats were added for 2012. Only the Cooled... Might get confusing for others.

in 2011 didn't Ford have a short production run of Ebony Black Raptors during the time when the Japan Paint plant was down?

 

[6.2]

Awesome list! Very helpful for people considering buying used, vs new.
