Based off the recent spy shots, this is what they're thinking the truck will look like. Seems a little less drastic than the concept unveiled earlier this year. Looks more like a Tundra and/or Dodge.

Dodge has the best design right now, but I would never by a Dodge because, well, it's a Dodge.

Yeah, I think that's the big thing they need to change. It looks like they're moving towards making the 150 look more like the Super Duty trucks, but they need to work on that grill and front end.

When I was looking at trucks, the Dodge dealer would only give about 4K in rebates/discounts. When I told him I could get 10K off a new Ford, he tried preaching that the Dodge was such a better product now and touted the Motor Trend award and all that crap. Needless to say, I didn't go Dodge. It's still playing 3rd wheel to Ford and GM in my mind.

Entire front fascia is atrocious...gives the new Silverado a run for its money.

ETA: I doubt the new F150 looks like that anyway. Have to keep in mind that its just a rendering.

I think those awards are mostly all about a new body style design, and not the actual functionality of the truck, or it's predicted reliability.

You ain't kidding. I follow these type things a lot and while renders can kind of get the theme right it always just seems so much more thought out by the time that the actual model rolls out.

The side of that looks a lot like a Ram to me.

Yeah it is OG. I sold my house in Monroe and moved back to Oak Grove. Until I can find a house to buy over here or maybe even build, I am staying at one of my mothers rent houses. I got corn surrounding me on the west, north, and south sides and across the road on the east side I got soybeans. LOL. I am back in the country where I belong.

Front grille looks like a bull nose with a ring through it.

I think the doors will retain the swoop and I don't think it will have that grille. It will HIDs.

(waiting on the F250 version, praying for HIDs)

I never could get comfortable propping my arm out of the open window of a F150 while driving. I don't understand the appeal of the stepdown in the front doors.
