I was looking at the new F-150 and someone told me to hold off because the body is changing for next year. Is this true? Is there a photo of the change somewhere?

 

They are changing the Expedition which currently uses many of the same parts on the front end as well as internally. I can't get anyone with Ford to confirm any changes with the 150. My guess is that it is changing. There are catalogs out on the Expedition.

 

I found some info on the net somewhere that the change wouldn't be until 2004. There may be some minor changes to the '03 model, but most likely not until '04. I asked a delaer salesman (usually not the most reliable sources!), and he said the same thing. That seems like a little too long to wait for a new truck, huh?

 

I have heard from a pretty reliable source that there would be only option changes for 2003, but the big body change would be coming out in late spring next year as a 2004 model. Now I still find this hard to believe, but he said it would have some characteristics of the Tonka concept truck. I would be much happier for it to look like the 2003 expedition, but we will all have to wait a few months to find out for sure. I am wanting to purchase a new supercrew, but am waiting until the new body style is revealed. At that time, if I like it, I will buy a 2004, if not I will but a 2003. If anyone else has any information, please share it with us all.

 

Just ordered a new 2003 F-150. Body style is the same. 2004 the body style changes. will look like and compete with dogde ram.

 

Take a look at this F-150 Lightning Rod from the 2002 Autoshow. I think this is what the F-150's will look like.

It says a new model so I'm pretending like its 2003

 

Never mind, I just re-read it

 

LOL, just wondering, but did you know before you posted that this thread was 10 years old?

At first glance I thought the thread said 2012 and that someone was just really confused but my guess would be he thought the same and just didn't notice it until later.
