New F150 Concept

[fordman84]

I'm not normally a fan of the "concept car" that you think is cool but never see anything close to it. However, this one doesn't seem too over the top, so I read on about it. Some interesting tech there. More aluminum, using electronics to create more aerodynamic profile (wheel louvers at high speeds, grill closing at high speed).

Nice looking truck.
Kinda looks like the F-250's and 350's.

When I saw the picture that is what I thought it was. I always figured they would make the 250 and 350 look morel like the 150, but I guess going the other way.

reminds me a little of the f150 raptor

love the look of the raptor, so maybe that is my draw. Not sure it is as wide though.

Needs Lincoln style suicide doors. Other than that I like.
Always wonder why concepts are so open and clean looking in the interior. Then, the car itself is cluttered and vinyl covered?

I think it has to do with hand-crafted vs automated installation.

Man, Ford is on such a roll. It looks more luxurious than the Raptor. I'd stick with performance or sporty before luxury in a pickup.

That is a sweet looking truck. Wonder if that will replace the Platinum Edition?
I think they need to make luxury, for all the old contractors who still like driving trucks, but don't really like driving trucks. lol

I've have a concept for them: how about a fucking brake light on the cab that doesn't leak like a sieve.

Looks nice. Don't know if I could drive that in the city too much though.

I'm sure. I'm going to fix it myself this weekend. I have taken it back to them twice to fix this shit. It pisses me off that I have to do it. Fucking shoddy part and repair/workmanship.

But I like the look of the new one. And even though I bitch about it, I still prefer Fords over the rest.

How the hell did they not fix it?

I have no idea, but I've taken it up there twice for this shit and it has to be on a specific day of the week (like Tuesday), because that is when the guy who fixes this particular problem is at the dealer.

Does it fill up w/water and blow the bulb, or fuse?
