2012 Ford Super Chief

Had these photos e-mailed to me this morning, check the Photo Albums as I can not load them to this post. Hydrogen powered and available in 2012. Has anyone else seen or heard of this yet?

Isn't this the same one that was a concept truck a yr or two ago? I thought that there was an article on it on here.

that looks *****ing Stupid. its not even a truck. WTF Ford get your heads outta your asses and design trucks like you used to... I wish they kept the 05-07 style longer, even the 08-09 style. the 05-07 style is by far the Best looking Ford Trucks (IMO) they've ever made.

I'm still wondering, after all these years, how you're supposed to work on the superchief, considering the hood and fenders are all one piece...

I do think Rob's right, 2005 - 2007 is probably the best looking Ford truck. I still like some of the older models too, but something like the Super Chief is a car, not a truck, maybe a ute.

hood/fenders hinged at the bottom of the grill?

This was just a concept from a couple years ago I dont think there is any new info on them actually bringing it to production is there? Just something trendy to show off at the auto shows is all.

I equate concept vehicles like outfits at a fashion show. Where people can supposedly get "creative", but I can't imagine most of the time anyone in their right mind driving/wearing one of those things.

The Super Chief is old as hell. But the 08 design gleamed a lot of it's design ques from it.

Yeah I just got an email about this, but I don't believe that there's any plans to produce this actually.
