Thumbs up

Looks like they finally got rid of the Green interior backlighting.


The truck looks really good, hell of a truck. Good job Ford, good job!

HP & Torque

I plan on asking them that tomorrow, though they'll probably say the numbers aren't final. I just know more power, slightly more fuel efficiency (especially for the bottom V8). I'll ask. Video coming up.

I think they went backwards on the interior. Looks very busy and choppy. I prefer my 07 interior cluster. Do like the frontend of the 09 KR though. For now I will keep my 07 KR Screw.

I like the truck a lot. Both the interior and the exterior. I especially like the king ranch and the blue FX4. Too bad I gotta wait a couple more years for the diesel. I can't wait to hear more on this truck. Especially power and price wise.

Ford has another hit on their hands. What a great looking truck!!! The front end is Superdutish which is fine, looks good that way. Its all the small details that go into making a great vehicle. One detail i will appreciate is the flat floor on crews...very nice and yet simple.
Good Job Ford....

I dunno, the square front end looks like the 80's F150s, not sure that's a good thing.

they dropped the V-6...meh...manual transmisison...for some this will anger, but for me? Meh.

4.2 V-8....what architecture is this built off of? The Modulars?

the 4.6's are getting the 3V tech...nice to see. I am guessing that the 4.2 isn't the same type engine as it only has a 2V head...but I might be wrong.

The exterior is good. Some of the grille-work looks rather Lincoln-ish. I am VERY impressed with the FX-4 setup, though. Good looking truck all around.

The back seat on the Screws though...my God...you could dang near have a very nice party back there. how close is it to size with the Dodge Mega-Cabs?

All in all....

Guess I gotta start saving AGAIN....
