lots of hype has been going on with this new f-150, and i've broke down and could only find COVERED spied shots of the truck...until now

this time the only thing covered is the FX4 XTR? or whatever 4x4 emblem on the bed, and the f150 emblem on the side, perhaps it will have a diesel in it after all, the F-150 emblem on the side says Triton V8 and whatever on it.

I think just by looking it at it, the whole truck seems a little longer then the other new body styled ones..

The truck is a facelift for the 04+ trucks, a style which never has grown on me due to its bulky appearance (which they are keeping). I do think I heard about making the cab bigger, probably to keep up with the Dodge Megacab and Toyota's equivalant. Starting in midyear '06 the 6.5' bed was optional along with the 5.5' bed in a CrewCab, it kind of looks like this truck has the longer bed.

looks like the front end is leaning toward the european ford style now. Im glad they didnt make it like the new super-dutys, those are the ugliest truck out there now.

overall looks good, and if they have a diesel i will buy one in two years for sure...unless they suck.

Wow, still fucking ugly.

Can't wait until the "boldy boldness like nobody's bolded before" marketecture dies off.

Wish they'd make them resemble the 73-77's.



Ahh.....now THATS a REAL truck.

Thats one bad ass looking truck and I totally agree.
By far my favorite style of Ford.

I had a buddy years ago that had a '77 f150 4x4 with 35'' tires on it. You couldn't kill that truck. One tough beast for sure.

Agreed. The older truck's body style is the cleanest, followed by the 92-96 bodystyle.

Saw the uncovered pics on Ranger-forums, hated it. It's nothing special.

Personally I think Ford should go the other way everyone else it... where's the originality out of it???

The cool thing about the older ones we're.....they cleaned up good enough to fit in in town takin the ol lady out to eat or whatever....but still looked right at home grunting a tractor stuck in the mud.

Lots of steel put togther with big bolts and welds. Simplicity. The simpler it is, the tougher. Less stuff to go wrong. I love em'. May not have the bells and whistles of the new trucks but they still work jsut as hard.....and in some cases harder.

By far the BEST looking, TOUGHEST built, HARDEST working, most BAD ASS trucks ever built. 73-79 F series.

Dustin

That is just... ugly.

They look more and more like escalades every redesign.

If you can't go through it or around it, then go over it.

I think the '79 looked the best, followed by the 92-96. Ford needs a retro model they did with the mustang.
