IMHO it won't involve the F150. I hope I'm wrong.

It looks like a dump bed. OEM HD offering?

Not F150 related...F650 is my guess.

It's certainly huge and has massive towing mirrors. Big drop between the top of the hood and corner of the front end too.

I'd guess semi if I didn't know better, so F-650 seems like a good guess.

Those huge things might as well be semis! Looks like the predication were accurate though.

I want them to make more 6 door F-650s. Those are so badass, and they are indeed behemoths in person too.

I'm hoping they give us some info on the F-150. I'd like to know if each payload is really going to go up by ~500 lbs due to the weight loss. It is going to be a long wait for the 2015 order guide.

If the F150 is one thing, and the F-250+ are Super Duties, what is "medium duty?" I don't think there's anything "medium" about a giant truck like that.

That one is considered medium duty in the commercial truck world.

Ahh I began to infer that because it isn't a full-size semi truck, but still think that's kinda funny.

A F-650 is a "medium duty", but is also a Super Duty brand so my post wasn't exactly clear. F-250-F-350 Super Duty are "light duty" trucks like our F-150.

Think about it in terms of the diesel motors .... don't include the 150

250-550 are "light duty" engines
650 is a "medium duty" engine
Tractors are "heavy duty" engines
