i hated it at 1st, then i got used to the look, and now i LOVE it!
not a fan of the yellow interior or rims, but those probably won't make it to production anyway. but the overall design and everything once you get used to it is sweet IMO
the interior and the motor are the only good things about it IMO. the nose looks okay too, mainly because the hood looks like a Cervini's ram air. the rest of the body...what were they

They ruined the body. No doubt about it. I think the Gen 2 Lightning was one of if not the best looking vehicle in production now and they ruined it. Bad Ford Bad. -Mat-
whats with the domestic makers these days? Since when is GM's body cladding and random collection of angular pieces considered a fashion statement? First the asstek, then the escalade. Ford, dont go down that bunny trail ....
i think the current style looks a hell of a lot worse than the new one. but then again i just became a big ford fan when i saw the 04 f150s. old style sucks
I'm not crazy about the look. Performance of course is no question! I don't think the interior looks very cozy, nothing I would want to spend any time in. Looks like some modern art deco gone wrong, but that seems to be the automotive trend these days. I think the current F150 design is about the best thing around...
I however love the fact that the concept is truly a regular cab. Maybe if they make the lighting in a regular cab they'll introduce it into the main F150 lineup...
I'm sort of biased given that I own an 04 F-150, but I like the new body. I like the Gen 2 body, but the pics I've seen of the Gen 3 exterior have me drooling.

Well, now I wouldn't say that it quite compares to the Asstek. Come on now, it's not THAT bad. It's actually grown on me quite a bit since my original post, and I really like it now, especially considering the numbers it puts up, it looks like some kind of exotic truck.
There are advantages to having a bench seat in a pickup truck that I am not willing to give up. I like the look of the console in the new trucks; but, my girlfriend(s) used to complain that the console cut into their ribs, when I had my Firebirds or Camaro.
The exterior looks like ass compared to the current Lightning!
I too think the Gen 2 Lightning is the best looking. Hell I didn't even like Fords until I saw the Gen 2 body style. But as I continue to look at the Gen 3 and the numbers it is(suposed) going to put out, it gets sexier and sexier to me.
