Ford officially took the wraps off the 2013 Ford F-150 this morning in Waco, Texas...

Note: There are a few new interior colors, too. Check the press release from Ford for more info!

 

Exciting stuff. Although my truck feels a little older to say I drive the old-old body style.

 

LOVE the new grill and projectors!!

 

those new projectors are wild. Im not a fan of that radio in the edge but they gotta keep progressing.

There is a nice array of updates here. The new tow mirrors and headlights look pretty sweet in the video.

 

So how long till the headlight parts are released to dealers and what are the odds they will bolt up to a 09-12? From the pics the shape looks the same but who knows if the attachment points remained exactly the same. My fingers are crossed that they will fit, the headlights are my only gripe on my '11.

 

^^^ Read my mind, you did!

Ain't nothin' like an OEM Retro...

 

they probably will fit but the actual oem costs will be greater than a retrofit....

For example look at mustang headlight housings 2010-12....

This is approx $284 ea




This is approx$929 ea



The wiring harness, ballasts and relays are not included in the price of aprox $1800 for the housings either ....

 

What about the transmission? Anyone heard if it's updated from the 6R80?

 

Not a fan.

 

Not a fan of the XLT grill. Actually some decent looking rims too.

 

well crap... when are these going to be available to order so we can see pricing differences? I was all set on a 2012 lariat, knowing the 2013's would be coming soon but my ford touch wasn't enough to make me wait...HID's are, have them on my current vehicle and love them. Headlights were one of my biggest complains about the other models.

 

In 3 weeks you can order one. June 26th to be exact. There will also be new woodgrain and a Silver Lariat interior if that interests you. Even if you don't get MFT you get a new centerstack with a 4.2" screen - worth waiting for IMO. The new Lariat grille is nice too. King Ranch gets a new Black interior. Platinum gets a new Pecan. All have new woodgrain, again.

Rambo,
I agree. These are some nice updates. Will you be ordering a 2013?

 

Thank you sir! Yes it does. I wasn't a fan of the 2011 lariat interior...2012's is good, hopefully i'll like 2013's. Probably won't spring for the king ranch or platinum, not a fan of the two tone paint options anyways.

When ordering a 2013, do you get the incentives that are currently offered? or do you get the incentives offered when you take delivery in September? Such as the trade in bonus or the financing incentives.

Thank you!
