I don't have a lot of details on the truck, but I just got an email that Ford debuted a F-150 FX2 at the New York Auto Show that is currently going on.

Apparantly it's going to have everything a FX4 has standard with all the available options except it's going to be 2-wheel drive.

It's not something I'd be interested in, but I know a lot of you guys have lifted 4X2's so maybe it has a place in the truck market.

 

Mark my words, dzervit will show up here shortly calling it the FX1½

 

 

Here is an article about it.

Here's to hoping that the FX2 is offered in Aspen Green, among otheres, so all of us non-LT color owners can finally have factory painted handles to add to our trucks.

 

Not bad looking. Like I said, I'm not a 2WD kinda guy, but that looks pretty good. Two things I'm concerned about: 1) The size of the Ford oval on the grille looks too small, and 2) The durability of painted side steps.

I have the same steps and they're a little scratched up, but I think they may be clearcoated so it may be the clearcoat that's scratched and not the metal.

I think that's great -- a sporty version of a 2wd truck has kind of been ignored in the current Ford line-up. In my opinion, the STX is a de-contented truck, not a "sporty" truck....

By the way, that Redfire looks like it is going to be a nice color on these trucks!
