And the new body looks like it belongs on the track. I'm anxious to see a couple of these done up in street truck fashion.

The black sports look pretty good, it just needs to be "manned up" a little bit. I think the wife needs a new truck come late this year.

Rumor is leaf springs are here to stay on the HD's.

Get a 1/2 ton regular cab short bed with the 380hp Hemi and that coil/4-link rear, and slicks and nitrous and let the fun begin, at least till parts start breaking.. If Dodge can coax 380 EPA friendly hp out of the 5.7L, wonder what the 6.1L SRT could offer?

Better yet, take above mentioned truck, do a 12 valve, P-pumped, twin-turboed 5.9L cummins swap, sleeve and stroke to 6.7L, add nitrous and hold on!

Atleast the toyota will always be uglier. The 2010 truck will grow on me once I see it on the street with a cummins.

I dont see much f150 in it. I see more Toyota Tundra than anything.
I like it. Granted, its no 1st Gen, but it still looks pretty good.
Is there gonna be a long box option? With that little bed and those bedrail compartments it is starting to look like a Ford Explorer Sport Trac when viewed from the side.

Anyone really think they'll keep and beef up that coil spring suspension for 3/4 and 1-tons?

That dual exhaust bumper cut outs are a little to rice burner for my liking. It might provide some interesting after market bumpers, though.

The truck looks sweet. The cool thing is it seems that the new look could bolt on to are older one.
