Default Saw a 2018 Sport Special Edition in Allen Park today with alternative graphics....

Instead of solid blade on the hockey stick, it had horizontal lines forming the upturn. I believe the one I saw was a Lariat because it also had red lines on it. I didn't get a good look at it, it was turning into the Ford building on Oakwood 1/2 mile east of Southfield.

Obviously didn't get to snap a picture, but I am wondering if that makes it to production, what the SE lovers and haters alike will feel about the change.

DOH! I should have done a google image search first. Looks like Ford has already shown the change:

Nice catch. I don't mind the stripe at all.

That said, I'd take it off if I got a SE

That truck kind of looks like it might be leveled. Even if the ATV in the bed is weighing down the back, the front wheel well looks kind of high for a stock truck.

I like it.
Question to those that have stripes like that. Do you have to wax around them (PITA) or do you just wax right over them?

I like the looks of that grill. Not a big fan of the graphics on the side.

I had wondered that, but it looks like it's going up a slight incline, not sure how much bounce there is to be had there

You cannot wax the vinyl. At least not with traditional wax.

I removed the SE vinyl off mine.
