The truck is a little taller than what we needed or wanted
Sounds like an investment in a lowering kit will satisfy both parties. Easier to get into for your wife, and better highway FE for you

Found some potential prospects - 2015 F150: Crown Suspension Lowering Kits Lift Kits Airride Leveling Kits

2" springs and 2" shackles for $200 + install would keep cost down and the factory rake the same for better aerodynamics.
