I actually think I like this truck better than the F150s out right now.....except for the grille.

D.Derek, are you able to say if that is going to be the actual center dash/radio area with all those buttons, or is that fake to throw the public off? Or maybe that is just going to be the dash style for the Platinum model only?

dont judge till you get to see the front of it. the whole truck is not slated for total redesign for a few years now. its going to look tough when we see that front end pic.

I'm not sure what all the negativity is about.

From what I can see, it looks like a pretty logical facelift of the current '04-'08 design. The grille is a pretty straightforward family resemblance to the SD and the car line.
I think it will look pretty nice. I sure hope the tape is covering diesel badges . . .

The instrument panel reminds me of the current Lariat package with some extra buttons. All in all, it looks like a Ford to me!

I like it, I think the interior shot would look alot better if it had the centre console shifter and if that piece next to the ignition was actually there. But this looks like an all-round improvment, except for those wheels, I hope they change those, but other than that, its hard to decide what the front end looks like when you can't even see half of it.

From what I can see, I like it. I think it will be interesting when we finally get to see all the different trim levels and how much they vary from one another.

Well at least they have factory clearance lamps on the mirrors, that we can fit on our 04-08 trucks.

Glad to see the console shifter gone. Doesn't anybody miss the space taken up by that thing? What's wrong with the shifter on the steering column, just like it's been for about 40 years? Overall, it looks just like a facelift or freshening or whatever the call these things. From what I can see, it looks like a minor improvement, but like everyone I am wondering about the drivetrain changes, if any.
