Is it really fair to say that the Super Duty styling has mimicked the F150 styling?

Seen it yesterday on Facebook, i think its the most hideous SD yet and looks like a horrible crossbreed between a GMC and a Ford concept Tonka truck

I didn't like the 11+ Super Duty styling when I first saw it. It took a while to grow on me. Based on the picture above, I don't hate it, but it's new to me and may take some time to settle in. This one might well grow on me as well. At first glance it seems heavily influenced by the Chevy HD line with a little extra seasoning.

One thing I wish I knew: HID or LED? Or still stuck with generic halogens?

I always wait until I see them in person, but that picture is hard to like. Glad I got my 2015 F250 and hope for years or service before thinking of upgrading again.

It looks like a little bit of everything but a super duty. I read yesterday they were led lights though. I'd rather drive around in the dark then drive that. Even if it was free, back to the drawing board Ford.

Sorry fellas, but we knew it was coming. Pull up the same quartering view if the silver Super Chief from a few years ago. EXTREMELY striking resemblance... Front clip AND body lines...

In some ways, sure. But did you see the picture from Jalopnik? http://truckyeah.jalopnik.com/2017-f...tur-1691057669

What did you think I was comparing it to? It's the same wolf in almost the same clothes. The Super Chief resemblance is obviously there.

Ugly front end aside, at least it looks like Ford might have heard my gripe about the tops of the doors on the current SD trucks- the way they fold over onto the roof, causing an avalanche onto the seat when you open them in the winter...

Looks like a Chevy revisited to me. Not good.
