    I think the 2018s look way better than the 2019s. All around, interior included.

    What do y'all think? In my opinion, the F-150 is the best looking 1/2 ton right now.

    Shame for such a Full Size Truck to have such low ground clearance. My wife's Honda Odyssey almost has that much, and myself I would never own a Chevy, Ford, Dodge, or Nissan. I have had a few cars in between my 5 Tacoma's and will never stray from Toyota again, no matter how many recalls, TSB's etc. And it's a shame that almost all trucks now including the Tacoma are getting more and more ugly front ends to them.

    I think it looks weird, and resembles a Tundra, more so than the previous gen. The lines on the side help break up what is kind of plain looking truck. Which isnt a bad thing, a plain looking truck that is. The front end is too dramatic for my taste. The best thing I can say is, that it comes with a propper set of tires.

    Wonder what will happen when you take off road.


    With this new model, Im guessing there will be a bowtie to compete with the raptor at least in the sales dept.

    It's ugly. The new Ford's are the best looking 1/2 ton trucks.

    The LT looks alright. I prefer the 2018, I don't like all the cylinder deactivation crap it has with it running down to one cylinder. I also prefer the bowtie on the tailgate from the prior generation than the embossed Chevrolet. I'd take a 2018 even with AFM, I actually prefer the 4.3 than the 5.3 (which I know is strange).

    I’d rather have a daughter in a cat house than drive that. Let me guess- $60,000 and gets 15 mpg?

    Glad I didn't wait on the 19, that's ugly.
    My 16 crew 4x4 , 4.3 v-6 gets 20 mpg pulling my bass boat at highway speeds, 23.7 w/no trailer. 20+- in daily driving.
    Go ahead and hate on me I can take it.

    Probably not....in the 1/2 ton market only the Tundra Pro approaches that price with such dismal gas mileage.

    A little of this and a little of that.
    Not the truck for me. I’m sure they’ll sell some though. :D

    Who the hell is out wheeling a full size for it to matter? Mall crawling and towing... not wheeling. To big for 90% of almost all trails.

    It has a weird look to it, skinny and tall, don't really care for it. I think they also put a turbo 4 cylinder in it which is probably not a great idea for a full size truck.

    It was ugly when it was revealed, ugly when I saw it in person and still ugly now. Hasn't grown on me at all like the new RAM.

    If the new Ram wasn't a Dodge, it might be OK.

    I generally dislike GM products, and this one is no exception. If I were to buy an American full-size truck right now, it would be a Ram. I like the looks of the Power Wagon.

    Toyota is my first choice by a large margin, though.
