Exclamation F150 ev

Man that LED front strip that goes over the headights and grill looks like crap. The plastic looks cheap and kills the look of the front end. Wish I had taken a pic but a child could have made it look better.

Here is a google iage, looks way cheaper in real life

Life long Ford owner. You are absolutely right it looks cheap and at the price tag they’re charging they need to do better. The GMC Denali ev looks 100x better

totally agree, there has to be a better way. the entire thing looks like a slightly oversized plastic car, with tiny tires.

Its the first gen of a first year production vehicle.

I'm sure that as time goes on Ford will spruce up the look some...

The GMC is the best looking one by a wide margin

They are all awful. I want to drive a truck, not a SPACETRUCK. Why do they feel the need to make them look "futuristic"?

My biggest worry is buying slumps and their conclusion is "well people just don't want electric trucks".

No, we want electric trucks that look like trucks!
