The fender arches seem to be bigger. Good for people that want to run 35s without a lift lol.
The dually fenders are awful as well. there are only a few things I don't like about the new truck but those things are enough to make me never consider buying one. It's just not a superduty. Even when they released it at the Texas fair there were like 5 people applauding. You know Ford failed when you get a reaction like that in Texas.

I'm not stepping on anyone's thoughts...but wasn't this a similar reaction to when the 08 body style came out and even the 11 body style?
I know LOTS of people didn't care for the 11 when it was released including myself but now it is my favorite body style. The 17 being released isn't the truck that makes me go "oh, ah" I need to have one, but it could certainly grow on me like the others have.
I think if the mirrors weren't the same they used on the new F150 the cab wouldn't look as similar to the F150.

I personally love the 97 style (which was the same as the f150 for many years even previous to 96)
I like the 07 better than my 14, but I love the "creature comforts" my 14 has vs the older ones.
I kind of like the new ones, lets just hope they ride better than the brick wagon I have now!

I still like the 99-07 styles the best, but the 17 is a huge upgrade in looks compared to the 08-16, in my opinion. I don't mind the aluminum either. If it can hold a plane together at 700 mph I think it will hold up just fine on a pick up. I like that my Kenworth has over a million miles on it and has zero rust on it too.

def my second favorite the 92-97. My absolute favorite would be the mid late 70's dent sides. love those trucks. I personally don't like the 08-10 looks at all. i do think the new one looks decent it the front when it not the fancy grill. the xl and xlts look good to me. The tail lights look like hot garbage to me though.

yuk...If I wanted a 150 Id buy a 150. End of an era is certainly correct. I wont buy one. Nice dingle berry on the rear edge of the front fender. Looks like a K-Mart add on. One of the deciding factors was the look of the 250-550 and the distinction as a separate line. Guess Im drivin the 11 into the ground. Everything has to be homogenized for the dam bean counters. Cooke cutter...just like all the rest now...that ladies n gents is indeed sad.
