Lol...^^^^ I hear ya. Im in the mind set. Think I will just keep my 2011 and pay it off then look into getting a 2015. That is if Ford doesn't have a Flop with there next generation F150 compared to the competitions trucks. I would love to have two trucks, one for every day work and one for play.

why do you think I called it that, till next summer then lots of camping trips, I have my 1ton I use with my camper, my GTP car i put on the road for 3-6 months just to keep running and looking new @ 14 yrs...lol..and well then we have the wife's daily driver the FX4......so nope not many miles gets on it hahahaha

But I might just keep my truck and get a new Mustang when the truck is paid off........if still has low miles on it...wife wants me down to 1-2 vehicles and less toys....lol.....

YESSSSSS. I have said the same thing. I like the F250 (from the front) but the a** end looks like crap. How is it that Ford has changed the front end 3+ times and forgot about the bed. IMO I think they should put the F150 style tail gate and lights on the back. It would flow alot better with there front end.

Yeah ford should get on that..can't stand that the super duty has had the same freakin' cab and bed for its entire life. Sad that an old beat up 7.3 late 90's SD pulls up next to a 2013 brand new one and the two could exchange beds and doors with just an impact gun lol.. If I needed a 3/4 ton I'd get a cummins right now.. I hate to say it but its true lol. They should just re-do the SD from the frame/motor up. Start from scratch!
