New expy or navi

Still no spy shots of the new expy or navi and there's rumors that the new navi is to be released next yr as a 2017 model. Im thinkin its getting pushed back to my19 instead of 18 or 17 for that matter as theres not even d mules being seen let alone protoypes. I say this because d mules of the super duty just released have been seen since 13. The continental itself has been atleast shown in concept form(most ford vehicles look identical to their concepts) and its to be sold next yr. I know the vehicles are doing well enough but id be lying to say i wanted one, though competitive, they are severely outdated. Btw has anyone driven or have the 16s with the sync 3?

I think rumors of a redesigned MY17 expy or navi are very very old and dated rumors. Just not going to happen.

If we're lucky we'll see a concept/ prototype at the early 2016 NA auto shows but I even doubt that cos ford doesnt seem interested in devoting enough resources to this platform to even bother with that.

Its a shame because the expy has a huge fan base but has since died dwn due to the neglect of the vehicle. In another forum there seems to be an insider who said it should be due for my17 however but i think he was being overzealous and getting peoples hopes up for the above statement. The 03 expy was such and ambitious project that needed polishing, which the 07my did but now it is completely outclassed, atleast by its foreign competitors. Im hopin for somethin this comin auto show season becuz i myself is getting impatient.

Holy cow!
The rear quarter panels on that thing are hideously ugly!
Lets hope they have a fair bit more refinement to go.
Interesting marketing strategy - show some dog ugly mules and sell more 2016/2017s.

Im sure none of that is making production. However i can see thw rear suspension isnt changing at all. I hope that tune it well. Also it has the interior of the f150 which hopefully they smooth and curve to a more carlike setup

I don't get that trend where the rear door window sill tips up the last few inches. Ugly..... I saw it first on the truck wannabe Honda Ridgeline.... now most have it. What ever happened to lines that go straight through??? Like a '99 Mustang, undoubtedly the ugliest Mustang ever..... a slight notch above the Aztec. Not a single line that flowed from front to back....

It may be due to the aluminum, ford is trying to make the least amount of mods to the aluminum panels to their truck bodies as possible. Exactly why the super duty and the 150 shar the same cab and why the expy looks longer and now has the f150 front doors.
