Is that a KR in the background? See any new colors in the KR?




We're getting word of an 'EARTH METALLIC' that will be available. Just curious to hear if you saw anything that fit that bill...

Any word on options? Will it be like a loaded-to-the-gills thing? Two, four, or all wheel drive?

Based on the front clip and Ford's LOVE of tow hooks... I'm guessing two or AWD.

Actually, rumor has it that your ham is being replaced with a 24-pack of Old Milwaukee.......

That is, indeed, a KR in the background. It was used by Ben Poore of Ford to demonstrate the difference in front tow hook locations between the F-150 and Tundra. (that article is in the works...but here are some more pics)

Such a shame to take a perfectly good brand spankin' new KR and scratch up the tow hooks like that. I would have gladly let them use my 15k mile '05 in trade for the KR!

And I thought all KR's came with KR wheels...those are Lariat rims. I could be wrong though.

Nice catch.

They may be KR 20" wheels but, they are not KR center caps.

I guess that I am one of the only ones that actually likes the "LIMITED" down the side of the bed (at least it looks good to me in the pics).

I do agree that the dark headlights do not blend well with the rest of the truck though.

i disagree with all that say the headlights dont fit.

they do fit.

it would be too much white if they had white headlights.
the dark lights accent the windows, the bed caps, the tires, and mirrors nicely.

I like it! My guess is 4x2 due to its low stance. VERY interested in that F-150 / Tundra article too.
