The CGI was probably done before they had finalized wheel options which can still change pretty close to launch.
Very slick and modern looking UI and animations. Interesting MPH it's showing... 51 MPH rock crawling?? :)
It could happen, they may wait until closer to order banks open to release pricing.
The specs should not be a major surprise so I hope we find that out tomorrow.
I'm hunting for dealers who might be already taking reservations/pre-orders for the new F-150.
Anyone successfully do this or know of dealerships who have begun to take reservations?
Leave the monopole antennas alone, this is a truck that is often off road and needs the longest possible antenna to pick up AM/FM signals in the middle of nowhere. At least make it standard and the black roof caps optional.
I'm looking at a 2020 Raptor and also interested in the future EV F-150 too so I'm very interested in hearing why you've decided to trade it in when the electric model drops. What advantages/disadvantages do you see?
Pretty big difference between the SuperCab and SuperCrew in terms of wheelbase and length. If they were the same I'd imagine cost would not be a big issue to offer both.
Wheelbase
SuperCab: 134.2 in (3,410 mm) SuperCrew: 146.0 in (3,710 mm)
Length
SuperCab: 220.0 in (5,590 mm) SuperCrew...
Maybe it's just the pictures but the leather, plastic and knobs look like they are higher quality. The 2 tone is nice, wonder what color combinations will be available...
This pandemic has Ford pushing back production according to what I've read about Bronco. The same might happen with the P702. Given the model year dilemma with this I wonder if Ford will shorten the 2021MY, or if it production delay lasts even longer than expected, possibly "combine" the two...
I'm definitely interested in the Electric F150 but can't wait longer than another two years.
What I care most about is range and towing ability. Also price of course.
What is the point of an open grille if it doesn't provide cooling to the engine and not a vehicle that really needs it for aerodynamic reasons? Just aesthetic reasons? While it may appeal to more legacy F-150 owners and traditional truck buyers I am not sure that is who Ford is going to sell the...
Since the number of cross members containing batteries is defined by the length of the frame rails, it means longer trucks will potentially have more power and range. I wonder if Ford is already thinking of applying this to its heavy duty trucks and what this could mean for the next F-150.
Body on frame vehicles make ideal candidates for conversion to EVs so this makes perfect sense. If they want to trounce the Cybertruck they need to give the EV F150 250-300 mile range, great towing performance and a quick 0-60 time and it needs to be done at a reasonable price.
That's the cost...
