Default What do you think About f150 flareside?
M looking for f150's for my first truck and I don't really mind the flareside bed but I'm just curious what do y'all think? Ugly or do you like it?

Aren't they fiberglass? Which means they won't rust.

I had a 97 and an 02 F150 flareside. I prefered them over the styleside bed because, IMHO, they just looked better. I also liked the tail lights over the styleside.

I prefer the look of a flair side bed, and wish they still made them in the new body. A RCSB with a flair side is my favorite configuration.

The 97-03 Flareside looked awesome. I actually owned a 03. The 04s on the other hand looked like ****!

Yep, the flareside and supercrew outer bed sides were fiberglass. The inner "bed" was still sheet metal.
