VIN Error??

VIN Error??
I am brand new here and asking for specific help. My son is looking at purchasing a used 2011 Fi50 at the local Chevy dealer.
The dealer has the vehicle listed as an XLT, yet when we put the VIN in a VIN decoder site https://vindecoder.eu/check-vin/1FTFX1EF2BFA20596
we found that the vehicle is an XL. My son and the salesman are off by a magnitude of a couple thousand dollars. He contacted the Ford dealer and a salesman there states the truck is an XLT, because it has a "convenience package", including chrome door handles, chrome wheels, power seat, lumbar support, with trailer brake assist (he states that means tow package). I am wondering if this truck is an XL with some add ons at the time of original purchase, When I bought my truck, I was able to cherry pick my options too.
I'm trying to stay out of this as much as possible because my son needs to learn what buying a vehicle is like. However, I hate the ambiguity offered by the Chevy dealer and a young Ford salesman across the street.
Any help greatly appreciated. Thank You!
