after reading 11 pages of how the other trucks are better I let it get to me.I've had my '04 since Oct of '03 and I still detail it every weekend. It gets hand waxed 3 times a year (by me) and is very well maintained. I wouldn't do all this if I didn't love my truck. But I'm a realist. I know that this truck will not last forever. I tend to buy a new vehicle every 7-10 years. Earlier if they cause problems. Ford's release of the new F150 concerns me because they seem not to be listening to what the consumer wants.

A lot of these guys negative reactions you can simply ignore because they either have an old truck that is broken down and they are jealous, or they just spend $40k on a truck that is already outdated. Ugly inside and out? Please.

I don't like the direction Ford is taking with their trucks. They're taking what have traditionally been the best looking trucks on the market, and turning them into rolling ugly. Get over yourself Rambo, because we're not going to change our opinion because you don't like it.

I know Stealth and a couple other regulars are not in this position, but usually those who have the most negative things to say about the new body style are the ones who could never afford a new truck anyways...
Personally the dash is busy with all those buttons, and I cant wait for grill kits because I find the grill ugly... Other than that it is a beautiful truck I cant wait to own. I am going to let the new motors come out and prove themselves for a year or so then I'm off to pick up mine. FX4 in black please with Leather.

They look like Ford built them, ran them into a brick wall, then shipped them out for sale.
