The base trim is the XL, and the XLT is a step above that. The extra letter could stand for truck or trim, but that doesn&#8217;t seem likely, given the implication that XL would then simply stand for extra luxurious.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3><span data-contrast=\"none\">What is a Ford F-150 XLT?<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">We can&#8217;t say for sure what XLT stands for, but we do know that the XLT is the third trim level in the lineup.
