New gen or not?

These photoshop pics of potential mods make it look pretty good. Point is..You can make it your own.

 

except no ones will look like that because they shrunk the grill.

 

Just by looking at the thumbnail (not enlarging) the picture looks like modified 2nd generation. And that's what the public will see when looking at these trucks. By not changing the cab at all they've just added another new nose (and rear this time) to the 2nd gen look. So, the general observer will see the same truck on its 4th new front end. Not exactly wowing the masses.

 

Because it is a 2nd Gen

 

With a different drivetrain , engine , interior and exterior

 

It's a new truck, cosmetics not withstanding. If it saves me money buying it by Toyota not racking up additional retooling costs in San Antonio - even better.

 

3 things that it has that I wish my 2014 had when I bought it

• heated mirrors
• outside temperature
• locking tailgate

just 3 little things that would have made my '14 perfect

 

It's maybe 30-40% new? Maybe 50% if you're generous? Toyota saves the money. Not you.

 

Are you sure you know how to read lol

 

Engine , drivetrain , interior , exterior

 

The sheet metal on the cab is different. The cab frame may be the same but the sheet metal is a little bit different. Look at the double cab rear side window, it has more of an angle on the bottom portion compared to gen 2 (where it says Limited) and the crease running down the truck on rocker panels is more pronounced then gen 2. Yes the design is similar but to say it is EXACTLY the same its really not.

 

Agreed

 

The full fuel economy figures for the 2015 Ford F150 pickup have been released on the EPA website and with figures of 19mpg city, 26mpg highway and 22mpg combined for the new 2.7L EcoBoost V6, the 2015 F150 is officially the most fuel efficient gas powered half ton pickup on the market.

I will put money on it goes up at least 2-3k in price. Those extra goodies are gonna cost and toyota isn't going to cut into their current profit margins. I bet an off road double cab similar to the one debuted will be 36-38k.

 

Dude give it up. Its the same cab. Yes refined but you were wrong with your attacking everyone before the debut. Its the same cab.

 

Correct it is the same.

 

Engine, transmission, some exterior and some interior. I'm sorry but a new plastic dash and center console is not a new interior.

Toyota will lose some market share to Chevy, Nissan, and HOnda ( if the latter two develop actual new models) over the next few years with this model. But Toyota is setting the bar for average with this model. I would guess and hope for the segments sake that this happens and forces Toyota to develop a real redesign around 2020.

 

Im talking about the sheet metal. Did you not read??? I said the frame of the cab may be the same but the sheet metal is not exactly the same idiot

 

There you go with the name calling. I wish I had the time to pull up all the thread bashing you did saying it wasn't the same cab or brakes or suspension or frame. Its the same cab with new sheet metal, same suspension but "improved/retuned" the same frame but "improved/strenghtened". But whatever dude.

 

What do they make the cab from.... .
sheetmetal..
