Just a little fun.... even if we know it wont look like this.
What Next-Gen F-150 Would Look Like If Ford Went Retro
The artist applies the aesthetics of the 1970s to a modern truck.
Chris Bruce
A new generation of the Ford F-150 is on the way, and spy shots even provide a decent preview of how it looks. Rendering maker wb.artist20 on Instagram imagines a very different look for the new truck by showing the pickup looks with retro styling taking cues from the 1970s F-Series.
The transformation includes giving the F-150 round headlights inside of the grille. Rather than the Blue Oval emblem in the center, "FORD" appears on the upper part of the grille. Oddly, wb.artist20 doesn't incorporate the split in the center of the grille, which is an iconic part of these trucks' design. The chunky, chrome bumper is a great, old-school touch, though.
The rest of this truck has a lot more chrome than we'd expect from a modern pickup. The shiny metal looks good on the F-150, especially with the black paint for contrast. The old-school, manually adjusting mirrors probably aren't something that most current buyers would want.
In the real world, photos indicate that the new F-150 has evolutionary design upgrades compared to the current truck. There are stacked headlights with prominent LED running lights around the outer and top edges
