The New SuperDuty...Unmasked

for some reason it's not working when I try to make it a hyperlink, So you need to copy and paste it into your web browser. If a mod or someone else knows how to correct this, it would be appreciated.

edit: For some reason, even cutting and pasting will not let you access the page. So, just go to Edmunds insider lane and look for the article there. chock with a few pics.

I was not so sure of the '05 re-style when it came out. But it grew on me in a big way. I hope this does the same.

I wasn't a big 05 fan either at first, I'm not in to all that chrome on the grill...but now I like the look... the 07 grill is a bit overpowering, but with the right color combo maybe it will look sweet... at least once I put a lift and some tires on er

I don't like that frontend, IMO the 05 looks much much better. With the exception of the grill and headlights, I think it looks pretty good.

Yikes. I'm hoping that look will grow on me also. I thought the 05+ Superduties were gorgeous when they came out. The 07 just looks...odd.

I'm not impressed at all, the front looks ugly. Looks like I might be keeping my truck longer than thought. FOMO strikes again! Hopefully the engine won't be a dissappointment.

I have always thought dually's look weird...so I think once you see a SRW truck it will be better. But that grill is HUGE.

Cody your too much. I really love the looks off the new superduty. It definityl wins me over hands down. An with the new powerstroke can life be better. Nope. Kudos to Ford job well done.

It would be nice if those side vents were real. I kind of miss the early 80's trucks with the vents since the newer trucks seem to prevent much wind from coming in an open window at high speed, but that maybe from being a CC.

The exterior of the truck... I don't really see that much of a change to make me want a newer model.
The interior... I'll have to wait and see.
The engine... Holy Moses!

I am glad that they are moving the Ford symbol on the tailgate to the centre and making the blue oval on the grill larger. At least they are proud of the brand.
