EB Observation

Today I went down to my semi-local Ford dealer to look at the EB F150's. They have 3 or 4 and each has an odd visual feature that has turned me off on considering one.


Notice the front plate bracket resides in place of the normal black plastic cover. Apparently in states, like NH, where a front plate is required. Ford replaces the ok looking plastic cover with the front plate holder. I would guess they felt the EB needs the additional air flow for cooling or general engine breathing. When I first noticed it, it was on a Max Tow equipped truck. But this is the case on all of the 3 or 4 I looked at. Fugly to say the least.

Here's 2 window stickers and the dealers pricing for 2 EB trucks.
