They do not look alike as some people have stated. Class is now over...Stop speculating about what the new truck will look like because most of you are wrong. In four short months you will all see it. Sorry about the rant but no one has seen this truck out of camo, so no one knows what it looks like.
(by the way, I am no one )
Amen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Check out worldcarfans.com for spy photos. There are none there yet for the upcoming 2009 F150, but there are other upcoming Ford models (and everything else) shown. From what I've read of the new F150, the entire front clip has changed, and there are trim changes on the rest of the body.

If you waste your time thinking about what if, you will miss what was myspace.com/f150builder
it was said earlier by derek that everything from the dash forward has changed but from everything said in every forum post the 2009 f150 is still going to have the same crappy 5.4 in it. derek are you sure the everything from the dash forward is changing because to me that includes the engine. correct me if i am wrong. all the changes in the world to the 150 does not mean anything unless it has a diesel or boss engine line up.

hmmm, I'm sure that I'm not the only one who read of the diesel and 6.2L gasser

6.2 will be a late option, followed by the diesel the year after..
5.4 will get a slight bump in power and 6 speed transmission..
4.6 and 6 speed from exploder
3.(5/7?) and 6 speed
somethin like that.
and i'm pretty sure derek saying everything dash forward changed was in reference to the body/styling?
Ford "exploder", I've heard that before, could some one please explain? Is this a veiled refference to the forestone tire recall and the explorers rollover tendancy?

The flair side will still be an option.
It was a dry run to see where we might run into problems when we start running the 09 next year. We (skill trades) had a couple of skillits (what the truck rides on in the plant) refitted to fit the 09. Some of the jobs we had tooling for, some did not (we had to do those things by hand) and some tooling just would not work at all on the truck. So now trades and engineers know what needs to be tweeked and where.
The parts are prototype parts so they cost a lot more and are in short supply.....you break, you buy
so are there any of those prototype V10 dohc heads and cams laying around that someone can pretend to have broken while i'll support the pay for em part?
I know you guys have em!

just a thought here but when we were all waiting to see what the 04 f150 was gonna look like we surfed all over the web and it was right under our noses. the 03 expedition was very close. now looking at the pics this thing looks just like the 07-08 expo.
