No. It looks like they took a production truck and just chopped the top on it. That looks good on hot rods, not brand new trucks. I can't tell if they just raised the body line so the interior space is the same or what, but either way it's ugly. Is that an all glass roof?

Really? You're opposed to better gas engines and transmissions? They changed very little on the body. I guess if you're opposed to coil springs maybe.

I am against them because they are to new and they are not better. Me and my dad are mechanics and most the trucks that come in out here are them. The old ones are better. I will stay that way forever. My two trucks still are running great my 2002 Ford F250 4x4 super cab triton V10 and my 1985 Ford Bronco 2 4x4 6cyl engine. So are my brothers' and sister's. My girl friend would shoot me if I bought a new truck she loves the old ones especially my sweet old Bronco.

What is that, a 3 1/2 foot bed? I can't haul much of anything in it. Probably can't tow much of anything. So what's the point?
