New Super Duty looks like a Chevy.






I think the resale value on the older ones just went up.

No, the Chevys look like the new super duty. lol. I think it looks like a slightly larger, new, F-150.. I guess that was expected though.

I loved the sideways-pull door handles on my 15', and the grill. They went back to the horizontal ones.. IDK, this thing looks pretty weird.. (

What is with that awful side vent/badge and front end. Don't mind the rest but overall it is a total fail in my eyes

The cab & doors look 100% like a current lamb tough Dodge. Headlights look Chevy-ish. The rest looks like a Ford to me.

Hopefully the interior is updated & modernized.

That's going to take some time to get used to.... Kind a looks like a combined Chevy and Dodge truck. The Chrome F250 thing in front of the door is rather ugly and why is one of the roof lights missing the lens cover????
Edit, The grill would be much better on this truck if it was chrome instead of gray.

Twigs, what looks like a clearance light missing its cover is probably the satellite radio antenna.

the thing on the roof is for the sat radio

I'm guessing the truck in the picture is probably a Platinum model since the current ones have the same type of grill.


I really don't care for the style of the mirrors and the F250 badge on the side is just plain awful looking.

From the angle of the picture it's hard to tell but if that is what it is I really don't care for the spacing of the roof lights.

I've seen a slightly different version of it also on Edmunds. I guess until it hits a showroom or auto show, we'll have to wait to be sure. One thing that was the same was that F-250 side badge. Yeah...it's still pretty ugly.

I think the angle of that pic tries to take in too much. Tough to see the actual lines of the truck from that angle.

If you looked at it head on, or side on, it would probably look better....but probably not by much...

Still fuuuugleee...but if it had some nice features, like an 8-speed tranny or a 6.4 L, 4V V8 gas, I might live with it.

After looking at the truck for a bit the biggest thing I'm having a hard time getting over is the doorhandles, I could grow to like most everything else about the truck including the grill and headlights if they were chromed or possibly black or even the emblem in front of the door, but those darn doorhandles look wussy in a lite truck way. I loved the big rig style Super Duty doorhandles on the old trucks.
