The new F150 looks hideous...looks like all of the other turds(GM, Dodge, Toyota) now..I just hope Ford doesn't uglify the Super Duty trucks like this..Yuck!

 

The good thing for the ones who hate the '15 model styling is the '14 and '15 will be built at the same for a short while so we have choices.

As for me, out with the old and in with the new.

 

I guess the intent was to make it look like F250. I don't see that much Tundra influence.

 

I think it definitely has some SD design influence, I must say, it really has grown on me already

 

I just got back from the Houston Auto Show where I saw the 2015 F150 in person for the first time. My first impression seeing it up close and personal is not good. There's so much going on with the styling of the truck that it lacks continuity. It seems like a hodge podge of different ideas that don't mesh very well. It's got hints of the other manufacturers styling cues like it's trying to be 3 trucks at once. The one at the auto show was 2 wheel drive and the front end seemed to be way too low. My opinion is that they missed on this one from a styling perspective so I will be keeping my 2012 and making the upgrades that I want to it. Ford however did hit a homerun with the new Mustang and I can't wait to put one in the driveway. That Stang is sexy!

 

Only thing I don't like so far is the tailgate. I like the 09-14 the best!

 

Holy crap that is awful

 

IMO, since I am a "Ford Enthusiast", I would not even use the Japanese company name in referencing or in any other way on our site. I must agree with the above earlier observation. This new Ford F150 is a light duty truck and will have its following but I think there will be also be a lot more F150 owners switching to F250 in these next couple of years.

 

Well, you know what they say about imitation....

 

Nope, they are gonna be switching to RAM. No way a bunch of 150 owners are gonna spend that much more to jump to a 250. NO WAY.

 

Comparing the 2015 F150 to a non-Ford truck is BLASPHEMY! I would rather be castrated with a dull knife then ever say Ford looks like the competition, or even drive one of their vehicles.

Ford is making this generation look more like the Super Duty line. Just wish a Crew cab long bed diesel F150 was in the mix for this year.

 

Just saying.

Never mind. Better to delete my thoughts than to upset anyone and get demerits.

 

Lol, switch to ram or shall I say fiat. Now that's funny right there

 

You make it sound as though an F-250 cost significantly more than an equally optioned out F-150. The only that's REALLY going to set the price apart from a F-150 to a Superduty is if the Superduty has a diesel in it.

With that said though. Some may step up to a Superduty if they don't like the styling of the 2015 and some may very well switch over to Ram or GM.

Either way though this is nothing new. I know people who switched to other brands when the 2004 F-150's came out. And I'm sure people switched when they were face lifted in 2009 as they will when the 2015's hit the showrooms.

But don't think this doesn't happen with other brands as well. Its just part of being an auto manufacture. You can't please your fan base 100% of the time, and sometimes the less loyal one's are gonna jump ship if they don't like what you are doing.

 

The price difference between the F250 and the F150 is pretty small when you are talking about base model crew cab 4x4.
