Sad.
Sad.
I can't understand for the life of me why Ford owners ALWAYS diss Ford and there products, yet buy them all the time? Then....I lurk around on other forms, and this same topic is being discussed over at the Toyota forum, and more then half the people that own the new Tundra says how Toyota should be taking notes on how to built a truck like the new Ford and all say Fords have the best Interior of any truck. Then people who own Fords say the opposite. You guys are messed up
Personally... I liked the '97-'03 styles better... something about them made them look like a 21st century truck... with rounded designs and such. Even the interior was nice and it suited the person well.
The newer trucks feel... imho... cramped up... and too busy. I'm not saying that with just Ford... I'm saying all of the manufacturers.
I happened to Google up some pictures of dash boards from other Ford trucks... like '95 F150 and F250... and a '00 F150 and F350... and then compared them to today's styling. It went from simple... to dang it... I need to be a pilot of an aircraft to understand what the heck all of this stuff does.
I also wish the design for the dash layout would go back to the '97-'03 years... it had to be one of the BEST dash layouts ever in my opinion.

Not what I pictured. If this is the actual 09 F150 I think that the 04-07 body style looks better. Im truly disappointed. I have to agree with some, the Tundra compared to the 09 looks better IMO.

dude i know, i hate it too, i bet it will look just like it as it is in that pic. You also notice the fact that half of the cover plastic components are missing, OH YEAH... lets not forget that interior pic is from JUNE.
plus crazed, what kinda guy says "*vomit*" WTF? go back to shavin your legs.
I think the stretched door is the result of the lack of the little door on the reg cab models. Right now the SCREW and the Reg Cab share front doors. Now they will all use the same doors....with the SCREW benefiting from an increased cab size.......unless the second door is smaller?????
I was contemplating replacing my '06 with a 250 down the road. If the '09 has a Diesel.....I will probably stick with the 150.....but then again, if it is any longer....it will not fit in my garage.
