Next major new body design for F150?
Sorry no pic here (clickbait :D). My thread title was really more a question, is there any word of of redesign for the F150. Seeing how it shares the the cab with the new Superduty and it’s previous offering ran from ‘99-‘16 are we only gonna see modest changes like grilles and tailgates for the next 15 years? |
That's the way it has always been. Usually about 10 years or so. That's why it's got great resale value, we don't have to worry about driving something that's outdated.

Hardly, my friend. Ford F-150 buyers aren't looking for glitter, we just want something that's long term and reliable.
Why fix it when it ain't broke? |
I've been watching this. (Just bought a 2018 :-X06) Looks like 2021 would be the next major refresh for the F-150 if Ford sticks to the schedule.
|
I plan on getting another new one in 2020 if all goes well. At this point, other than a color change or two, I can't think of one single thing that I would want them to redesign. I understand that they have to keep moving forward with innovation, but these things are just really well thought out as is.

The Superduty ran 17 years without much aesthetic changes, the F150 has had major revisions since the bean looking ones that debuted in the late ‘90s to the change in ‘04 then again in ‘09 then again in ‘15. Historically speaking they are due for a significant change in about ‘20-‘21 I just don’t see that happening as it’s tethered to the Superduty platform now :confused: |

It will more likely keep the doors the same, just the front and, maybe, the back.
|
If they were to change anything, I would like the front fenders to "roll off" more to make the viewing over the edges a little easier. If they can do that without making it look like Dodge ...

Aren't looking for glitter? REALLY???? Then how come the Platinum is not the top dog? Why the need for a limited? Yes, "my friend", F150 owners ARE looking for glitter.
Whatever the trim, you'd better get them now. Tesla plans to kill the F-Series soon with his new truck. While I admire Musk's tenacity, he has no idea what the F150 is, and he won't live long enough to experience that dream. While the EcoBoost WAS a hard pill to swallow for some, an electric truck with range, capacity, and built for work, isn't likely to make it to the table, let alone be produced at the rate of 5,000 per day. Still, y'all better get your F-150 glitter rigs now. |
When I said glitter, I meant having the latest, leasing the newest, going in debt to get the latest.
Overall, only 22% of Fords are leased while most BMW's and Benzes are leased because their dumb ass owners want the latest and can't afford it. I bought my XLT because it was the most versatile with 4x4 and excellent resale value. It's still going to look good 10 years later, why bother? That's stupid. |
