After owning the 2011 FX4 SuperCrew I have made some more observations that I "hate" about the new style.

-Door sheetmetal wobbles when you close the door.
-Going over speedbumps the front suspension brings up or goes fully extended before the body falls back down. Unlike my 04
-No grab bar on driver side for getting in and out.
-No rear wheel fender liner, like my 04 flareside had
-Governor at 98mph
-Auto4wd should be standard
-Theres such thing as Too much room in the back seat. Truck is too long.
-2011 fx4's have blacked out front and rear lights (looks great) but the cargo light is still silver!
-The Hole in the front bumper when you take the License plat off. Looks like something missing.
-The Doors have only two open positions, barely open and fully open, no happy medium.

Thats the spy shot. Note how the grille is going the route of the super duty. A photoshop rendering-




Love it or hate it, it will be a big change in the way the F150 looks.
I wouldn't call that a Big Change, but a change for the worst. Man, that is UGLY. Maybe they will do something with the lights to compliment the grill.

I think that grill is hideous.. Unless they do a total refresh to let it tie in more.

Very Smart Statement! Now you have a 2009! Good for you!

I don't like the taillights, grill, and tailgate but with the new engine options its kinda had to argue they are attractive trucks. BTW Am I the only one who wishes you could have a crewcab with a 8' bed?

No, I've been summonsing the gods for years, but no luck. Maybe the Superduty is in order.
