Agreed!!! Other than this body I also like the 92-96 bodies, but this is my favorite.

I kind of like the look of the new badge. I will have to see what it actually looks like in person. If its good to go and big enough to cover the holes, I might swap out some day. Who knows

Actually, they are for the E-series...

The 6.4l only fits the F-series... not the E-series.

Don't care much for any of the new design. I just hope parts can be interchangeable so what little parts we like we can replace on our current trucks. IE- front suspension & drive train parts. Perhaps a cure for the steering wheel nimble will be in the new truck.

I already know the 5.4l and the 4.6l v8s will be the engines for a longer time than 2010.

Someone on here posted some skillet pictures, and they debated over what engine was in there... I knew immediately it was the 5.4l v8. Sadly, I knew a few weeks ago that the 6.2l Hurricane wasn't going to be in them.

What I did not know was they were going to drop the v6.

I guess there goes the M5OD-R2 hung out to dry... I'm kind of glad I bought my truck. Won't sell it now. Ticks me off that Ford is dropping the stick shifts.

What bothers the heck out of me is that the 4.2l v6 is being put into the corner... it's a perfectly fine engine, and is more durable that the new DOHC engines.

I agree. Although I am glad that they are making the front doors on the supercrew bigger. I bought a supercab because I am 6'6" tall and if I sit in a current supercrew and look left I am looking at the pillar between the front and back doors. Now I can get a supercrew in 2010........that's the plan anyway.

I agree about the supercrew doors being small. I'm 6'2" and I have to lean forward to see oncoming traffic at a light.
