in my eye, a new style "mid-size" pickup to compete with toyotas T-100 and nissans crew cab Frontier. would help ford greatly. Not only that, but im sure if ford were to build a new plant to build these trucks, they could produce another 3000+ jobs in america. thus helping our economy. buy american!!!!!
I just happen to agree!

im gonna have to highly disagree, i drive an olderish f150 and its falling apart on me, everytime i fix something, something even worse goes. ive been around for 4 of my dads dodges, a dakota that was rolled, 2 rams, and a durango, never seen any problems with any of them, had some trouble with an intrepid but nothing too serious. not to mention when i get stuck, the buddy i call drives a dodge, only problem was a broken strap once after i was already out

almost every truck in every contracting and construction company i have been around does not get treated well, its the nature of the job. The reason us and everyone else uses ford is because the chevys just never hold up as well and the dodges fall apart when you look at them the wrong way

if this is a genuine ford design. it could be an artist's rendering of the ford escape as a pick up. if you ask me, it is cool looking!

Thanks hotrod... Damm was getting bit excited but i think your rite.. Looks to me like a mix of the Dodge Dakota, F150 (rear) and sport track. Fer a minute i thought it was a new pic of the 2012 T6 Ranger we mite be getting. I'd really like to see a F100... Well back to dreaming i suppose

I've owned all 3, Chevy, Ford and Dodge.
IMO with proper maintained they all hold up equally well.
I've seen all of them with well over 300k holding up strong with motors that have never been opened, on the flipside I've seen them all with major reoccurring problems with less than 100k on them.
Everyone seems to be all over dodges *** but truth is I see way more new Rams on the road than any other new truck around here and almost every fleet company has Ram 2,500's or F-250's
Hell my old Ramcharger with a 318 was my grandpas before he got his new ram and I only had to sell it due to 9mpgs
