Cool Remember this truck ???

Pictures are worth a thousand words ...





I would have went broke for this truck, if it came out for the '97 year.

Hmm....that's funny...the front bumper looks more like the 99-01 than the 97 debut.

Cool

Come on guys, there has to more people out there that remember this truck. It is the one that started the new look for Ford's truck, except the Superduties. These pictures were taken at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit back in January of '95. This truck would have been all over the place as one of Ford's concept vehicles not to mention a huge number of magazines.

Have Fun & Keep on Truckin'

When passenger of foot heave in sight, tootle the horn. Trumpet him melodiously at first, but if he still obstacles your passage then tootle him with vigor.

I also hated the new body style-for about a year. Bought a 98 and traded it off last summer for a 2000.I love these trucks.

I don't remember seeing that either. I do remember how I thought they were butt ugly when they first made them. I believe that's about the time I bought my first Chevy. This sounds corny, but when Ford started playing the Alan Jackson commercials of that F-150 4x4 blasting through all the snow and stuff, I think that's when my mind was changed.
