Exclamation All f150online.com Members!
So now that the '09s are out (12th gen), that means we are calling it the NBS, right? Which leaves the 04-08's (11th gen) as OBS, correct? Now what about us 10th gens? Should we call them OOBS or what?

The correct method is to throw the stupid generation terminology out the window, and refer to the truck by its model year.

Good idea, except when it comes to my '04. Everytime I need a part I have to say "it's the new body style, NOT the heritage".

Good way to put it. I've always identified each gen. as the year range that they covered.

Agreed. If I heard somebody say "I own a 10th gen F-150", I'd call them an idiot.

Agreed. Calling it by a gen name is like being an absolute toolbox.
