I don't want to see the regular cab just shortened down. I would like to see the cab remain the same, just put the longer doors from a extended cab truck on it. Thise doors are like 6 inches longer.

Oh, Don I know exactly what you're talking about. But I already used the longer doors. The other doors are even shorter (see how it ends right after the kink):



Wow these new F150 beds are so TALL!

OK, I just posted a cleaned up regular cab version (I added it to the original thread post), but you can get it here too:

1600 x 1200: http://www.gearfx.com/ford/wallpaper9regcab_1600.jpg

800 x 600: -- see below--



I may play with other colors later tonight... but that depends on what the gf wants to do.

cool deal, i was mostly just too lazy to get down to it.

Although i gotta ask, what method do you use to make it so the door gaps line up to the countour of the vehicle? Just eyeball it or is there some method that you can use?

I think Ford maybe went overboard with their cold, hard, machine-like design on the Lightning concept (keep the angular designs over at Cadillac please!). I still prefer the softly-rounded shoulders and muscular curves of our bodystyle,
I agree Ben, as much as I loved the unvailing myself, I just did A LOT of interstate driving this week and I got to tell you, I saw sooooooooo many new F-150 Trucks and I just CAN NOT get it to grow on me "as the next Gen Lightning"


Those flat *** rear quarters, those wheel wells, caddy looking nose, and I'm not to found of the doors, especially the low windows.

BUT """IF""" Ford releases it lowered and looking
"as shown below", it def gives the truck a whole diff look.


AWESOME JOB AS USUAL ON THE PIC'S BEN
BTW, I like yours much better, ew, I want one.
Who do I give my CC # too, hehehehehe .........

Eyeball!

I did some color swaps while watching the Olympics. Again, I apologize if some of the colors didn't come out *quite* right. But close enough for this time of night.

F-150R in different colors:

Ford should make this truck a special model and throw that ford crate motor in it. and give it a 6 speed.
