oh well it worked any way!!!!!!!!

 

That was show truck from some years ago I believe. It was built as a precursor, to show what the 1997 F150 might look like.

 

If you read the posts on F150World you would read that it was a concept vehicle back in 1996. The '97-'02 F-150's are based off this vehicle.

Someone has a picture with a date on it from a car show back in 1996 of this same vehicle.

The 2003 F-150 is unchanged from 2002 from everything that I have read. It will come out as a 2003.5 or a 2004 and will either be based off the SuperDuty (which will be redesigned as well) or the all new 2003 Expedition.
