I’m not sure why there is so much dislike for the 2020 grill. I really like the grill on our ST.

The Chevy version is a better execution aesthetically

So far, I’m not particularly excited about this truck based on the little bit we have seen. I hope seeing the final package will change that. There isn’t anything particularly detrimental, but nothing is making me say wow yet. I feel the Ram interior still has the F150 interior covered with what can be see as well.

Bingo. I have it on my work Expedition and I really don’t see the benefit. As far as I’m concerned just go back to the column shifter and free the entire space. Alternatively they could also use the seemingly controversial push buttons mounted somewhere.

I agree with you. In 09 I bought a leftover 08 F150, mostly because the deal was so good, but also because it took me a bit to warm up to the 09 body style. But I’m sure it will make a difference seeing the complete package.

As a casual fan, I agree with you. I don’t find oval racing interesting, but more non-oval racing could draw me in more.

As mentioned before, I think the camo is throwing things off a bit, but at the moment, I’m not sure what to think about the headlight module. It does not look integrated to me, and kind of looks like an afterthought. This is very much an evolutionary model, which frankly disappoints me a bit. However, the outgoing product was a very good base to start from. At this point I’m hoping the interior is what will really set this truck apart, along with refinement of the drivetrain. I am looking forward to seeing the final product though.

IFS may not be the best system for rock crawling but it will work very well for the the other 98% of off-road situations. My friends lifted wrangler has terrible road manners, and would not be enjoyable to me as a daily driver. I think that trade off is worth it if that is the route it’s going.

Amen to that!

Ironically we have a black ST. I tried to get my wife to get the Aviator because the interior was better, but she wouldn’t go for it. The KMCs have a factory look which I like, and I imagine the 20s do ride better.

Can’t help you with the technical details but congrats on the purchase. The previous owner sure drove it. We need pics.

It would be nice if they had a blackout package for the Aviator so people didn’t have go aftermarket. I imagine it will eventually show up though.

Looks good, love black wheels.

I hope they find a way to differentiate that Expedition dash from the F150 in the next iteration. I don’t mind if the hard points remain the same, but it needs to have better and different trim pieces where possible.

As an ST owner, I feel like the stalks on the column feel cheap and kind of flimsy, the buttons for the heated/cooled seats and steering wheel don’t have a positive clicking feel when you press them, and I feel the paddle shifters should have been aluminum like my Raptor. As another pet peeve, I do not like the Order of the buttons on the steering wheel. I think all the audio controls should be on one side like all of the other Fords I drive. I’m not sure why they did it this way.
