I agree 100%

I know, I was just being silly! I just bought a 2014 myself, a 250 though. Love that beast! I'm sure when the new 150's and the 2016 Super Duty trucks are out, I'll get the fever again!

Nice the 250 is a beast but I only have a 16ft bass boat I pull and my 06 5.4pulled it just fine but I was ready for a new rig and the deals we're good so I jumped I got a black stx with 5.0L and 3:55 I pick it up tomorrow. It's like Christmas night I can't sleep for sh$$$t already. The dealer had to locate the one I wanted they didn't have black with a 5.0l and I didn't want the 3.7L so I had to wait 4 days

Congrats on the new Rig, be sure to post some photos! As far as the Super Duty, I have way more truck than I need in reality. My Dad is getting in poor health and has logging and farm equipment that needs moving from time to time, he has an old flatbed F450 (89 model) it still runs, but starting to have some issues. So, instead of trying to repair the truck that will not get used very often, I went ahead and traded my F150, Loved the truck, but it wasn't designed to pull the equipment Dad has. Basically, I used the first excuse I could find to get a 250!

If and when you start with the mods, check out the ATAK exhaust for the 5.0L (Borla), man does it wake up the 5.0L. That is one sweet sounding V8!

Here's the 2015 appearance guide
http://blogs.cars.com/files/15_f150_appearanceguide-hc_sglepg_final_2-ret-.pdf

When I look at the taillights on the blue one on the fx4 package page at first glance they look a lot like the ones on the 07-13 tundra between the sharp angles and the reverse light being on bottom but I can see a bit of the 09-14 f150 in to in the shape of the light too The models with the blacked out grills have a real vague resemblance to the tundra but I think it's just because of the black grill because I don't see it on the chrome grills. I think the look of this truck may grow on me but at first I thought the new truck was hideous I'm still not a big fan. The grill is okay, I don't like the headlights at all, and the new "caribou" color on the king ranch really doesn't do it for me. It's got too much brown in it, to me it just doesn't say king ranch. The accent color needs to have more gold in it. Unless something changes as far as how often I tow an haul for work, I'm going super duty for my next truck, I just hope they are a bit more conservative with the body style updates and stick close to the current style

From 50 yds you won't be able to tell if it's 2013 Tundra or an F-150. I guess it's better than the square shoe boxes of the past 5 years but it certainly isn't original.

Looks like a BEAST!!
Going to look into getting one in the next few; just waiting (patiently) for those numbers of towing and mpg.

I think the new design looks good and I am very interested in purchasing but I am definitely going to wait until there is further information on mileage and until I can stand in front of it and sit in and drive it. Too much money to spend on something sight unseen.

I was at the MN state fair yesterday. Went over to the FoMoCo spot and saw the "prototype" 2015 F150. Doors were locked and the hood was closed which kind ticked me off. Why not just show the real deal? At any rate in person and this was a 4x4 F150, it seemed to be a bit short for myself. Now I am 5'9 and roughly 140lbs 21 year old guy. But the truck seemed to sit a bit low for my tastes. I think the 09+ sit higher than this does. Font end in pictures looks great but in person, I can't help but almost throw up in my mouth.

Body style looks awesome, but the dash seems to be a carry over from the current line. Gear select is still on the tree rather than the shift being in the middle on the console, course I cannot remember if it had the 3 person set up in the front or if it was only the 2 person. This one did have the side step for the bed, probably to take the place of the lacking flareside of the older model trucks.

Overall it looks nice but I wish they would have shown more like the do at auto shows. I guess I have to wait til later this fall early winter before I can even sit inside one and pop the hood open.

My wife - as an objective person to the truck world - also said she thought there was a resemblance between the Ram and the new 2015 F150
