Eh, I figured they would go that way with the headlights, but honestly it looks more like a friggin Toyota now. I'd like to hear more about the new powerplant though.

 

autoblog has a better story. looks like no diesel till 2010, added a 3v 4.6 from the stang and beefed up the 5.4

i think the audio companies are experiencing heart attacks if they've seen these pics yet, a new cd player will be expensive. im all up for a $15 line our converter, lol.

 

Kinda ugly to my eye but I didnt like the new 04's at first either.
I was hoping for more of a F250 Tonka Truck look.
Those tail lights do look very Toyota and Ford used to lead not follow.
I dont think they will remain #1 selling truck with it.
What were they thinking?

 

Rockford Fosgate has the 3.Sixty and JL has the Cleansweep, and others have similar options that give top-notch audio from factory radios. Don't worry about it because there are easy ways around it

 

Man, I hated the model we had until 03. Couldn't stand the curvey look to it, trucks need hard edges. When the 04 came out I looked at it and announced "Now there's a Ford that I'd actually own." But now they've gone too far and I'm not feeling it. The front doesn't do it for me. Rest of the truck is ok, and the interiour I like. I'm drooling over the six speed tranny but that front end...it's gotta go. Nice to see some side shots, those official ones the f150OL webmaster posted were all front shots it seems aside from one at a slight angle.

 

I think they avoid side shots because there is so little change except the front and back to the exterrior.
I keep looking but I dont like it...
The black grille looks better but...no new truck for me anytime soon unless it's a 08 leftover..

 

agreed...
and I absolutely hate that they apparently are still not offering a FRICKIN' REGULAR CAB TRUCK.

 

I bet regular cabs fall within that 1% area just like the 4.2 V6 did.

 

It would probably end up something like the old Taurus or new Civic. The aftermarket will come up with a new panel that all the A/C and such buttons snap into, but have the hole for an aftermarket radio...
