Personally the interior to me looks just fine. But then I never have been one of those guys who values luxury more than functionality. What is vastly more important to me is no death wobble, door latches/locks that actually work, no crappy electrical components that are easily compromised by water intrusion, fair fuel economy for the platform, and above all else, that it just doesn't break. Ultimate reliability as best as can be achieved. I would gladly take a bare-bones truck that is totally reliable. That 7.3 gasser looks like the ticket. Could potentially be a real game changer for all those looking for a real viable alternative to the diesel. Would love to see the ratios for the new 10 speed tranny. Glad I waited to see what they came out with for the 2020 model. It would be really nice if they came with a bona fide real sound system though. But again, much rather have total reliability above all else.

Well, as a new 2019 owner I’m not really dismayed. 
No big changes except the nostrilz and a wireless charger I would never use.
Maybe they will offer some more exciting colors.
edit: aforementioned 10 speed trans and pushrod gasser nothwithstanding
how cool looking is that short cab F450?!

I had already told my dealer that I wanted to order a 2020, but I am underwhelmed so far. I expected a lot more interior updates. I do like the 10 speed and the electric assist steering. I am not impressed by the new grill. Maybe they will look better in person. I am just not sure these updates are worth taking a hit on my 2018.

Amazing how many guys are so into cosmetics. What matters is "So how does the damned thing WORK?"
Must be a societal thing.
Like shouldn't LED headlights be available even in the XL? Because that is so much safer to be able to actually see where you're going at night? Little stuff like that.
Or how about front ends that never get death wobble in heavy traffic moving fast on narrow lanes thru construction (Houston on 59S). Door latches that don't freeze up. Etc etc...
