Had a 2000 XLT that I sold in 2011 with 82,000 miles. By the time I'm ready to sell my 2011 XLT they will have gone through at least 2 more design changes. I can wait.

You guys in the States are so fortunate you can wait until 2015 prices drop to reasonable levels but I'm afraid that isn't going to work for Canadians. Ford Canada has already raised prices on the 2015 a few days ago, pretty substantially on some base model trims and options. I expect that's going to continue with the falling Canadian dollar. You can easily price out a King Ranch at over $82K before taxes now (though there is a 4.5K rebate). I am trying to work out a deal on a Platinum right now but those "invoice or better less incentives" don't go over very well in Canada.

I live here in Dearborn MI and see them all over, a lot of them with manufacture plates on them. There are holding lots filled with them waiting for shipment.

Seen it today in person and was as expected. Back divided window looks odd at best. Door handles are odd way too big. Front looks too big for truck and headlights look huge. Overall size of truck from what I have seen makes the 5.5 box look way to small or off. Running boards are cheap looking. rear F150 emblem looks like Raptor but odd on truck. Mirrors look like an older f150 style Grill is too big for truck size.Keypad rubber in door panel, come on escape is touch. Screams lower cost. Two things I liked were fog light design and tailgate design. That is not talking about interior.

Not overly fond of the over all design just yet. Probably grow on me over time but I really have issues with that grill. Looks over sized and odd for a truck that size. Almost like they wanted to make the 150 big and brawny like a 250's and up?

Think the weight savings while increasing the payload will be a big plus. For now I only have 23,000 miles on my 2012 Lariat so no hurry to run out to spend that kind of money for the latest and greatest. I know some folks need to have the newest stuff which is always good for the econ!

I've been watching the 2015 threads to see the new ones, more and more are sending in new pics. There's one major thing I can't stand on the 15's. The dash has only analog tach and speedo. All the other gauges are digital, plus the digital ones look exactly like the ones Chevrolet used YEARS ago on their trucks. The 15's were growing on me till I saw this. No thanks.

I'm definitely not jealous of the 15's when I see how much they cost! Looked at a KR 5.0 last night that had a 72k price tag (Canadian pricing). There was a ruby red XLT crew cab EB with the 302A sitting next to it, 57k price tag. My truck had a 45k price tag and I paid around 33k for it.
These new trucks are slick, no question about that, but with that steep pricing I wouldn't consider trading for a long time, just made me feel even better about buying my 13 when I did . Hopefully some good deals will start to pop up on the 15's, I can't speak for everyone as we all have differing financial statuses but paying anywhere close to sticker on one makes no sense to me.
