The 2024 Ford F-150 STX Black Appearance adds gloss-black wheels, dark badging and black running boards to the STX’s sport-cloth cabin. It is an appearance-led choice below Lariat, rather than a shortcut to luxury seating or a different towing specification.
Our 2024 STX Black Appearance video is below. The package changes exterior details; engine, drivetrain and towing equipment remain separate choices.

What the Black Appearance package changes
A Canadian 2024 STX listing documents 20-inch gloss-black wheels, black exterior badging and six-inch black running boards as part of the package. It also identifies the underlying truck separately as equipment group 200A. Canadian package example.
The useful distinction is between how the truck looks and what it can do. An appearance package should not be treated as a substitute for a towing specification or an off-road package. When comparing advertisements, separate the base trim, equipment group, engine and additional packages into different lines.
Engine and transmission
The Canadian catalogue includes a 2.7L EcoBoost V6 STX rated at 325 horsepower and 400 lb-ft, paired with a ten-speed automatic. Other configurations require their own engine specification. 2024 STX reference configuration.
Interior and technology
STX uses sport-cloth seating, while the 2024 cabin has a 12-inch touchscreen and a separate 12-inch instrument display. Heated and ventilated front seats are part of the higher Lariat-and-up specification described by the Canadian dealer. Canadian 2024 cabin overview.
Fuel consumption
| 2024 2.7L configuration example | City | Highway | Combined |
|---|---|---|---|
| F-150 2WD | 12.7 | 9.6 | 11.3 |
| F-150 4×4 | 13.2 | 10.2 | 11.8 |
Figures are L/100 km from NRCan’s 2024 dataset. They illustrate why drivetrain matters. Another engine requires its own matching row.
Canadian trim comparison and pricing
Equipment reference: Canadian 2024 F-150 trim overview. Available packages are separate from these trim highlights.
Historical Canadian catalogue references checked October 29, 2026. These entries are deliberately labelled by configuration: they do not make a like-for-like trim-only price comparison. Documentation, tax and other applicable charges are additional; obtain an itemized quote confirming freight and all fees.
| Reference configuration | Listed CAD price | What it helps compare |
|---|---|---|
| STX 2WD SuperCab, 6.5-ft box, 2.7L | $59,005 | Sport-cloth seats; optional Black Appearance adds dark wheels, badging and running boards |
| XLT 2WD SuperCab, 6.5-ft box | $61,640 | Eight-way power driver’s seat and 360-degree camera |
| Lariat 4WD SuperCrew, 5.5-ft box, 3.5L | $81,240 | Heated/ventilated seats and memory pedals; also changes cab, drivetrain and engine |
Sources: Westview STX/Lariat catalogue and XLT reference. The table prices the underlying trims, not the additional Black Appearance package.
The STX-to-Lariat gap must not be described as the price of leather seats: it also changes the truck’s configuration. Request the same cab, box, drivetrain and required towing equipment on each quote. Only then can you decide whether the extra convenience features justify the difference.
Practicality and buying verdict
On a used truck, inspect the dark wheels and trim closely for damage or previous repairs, and confirm whether the appearance components are factory equipment or later additions. The STX Black Appearance is a sensible candidate when its style is the attraction and the underlying configuration meets your needs. It should not be bought as a shortcut to capabilities its package name does not establish.
