That's what I think. But I'm not the one that would be buying it.

Well guys here's the update...went and looked at it today and decided to keep mine. The truck was nice...but it wasn't 25k nice. And the guy tried to tell me it blue booked at 29k...and that it was a lariat when it clearly says "XLT" on the badge. Anywho, I'm going to get my truck painted (probably black), redo the interior, and fix any issues my motor may have. I'm expecting it to cost around 5k altogether, if that.

Looking at the interior, it is probably an XLT "Sport" not a Lariat. I believe that the Lariat seat covers have Lariat stitched in the seat backs (among other differences). However, you can probably count on some clueless person with more money than sense not knowing the difference and buying it anyways. Like the expression goes, there's an #*@ for every seat.
