Like I said ages ago, those “concerns” are nothing compared to Cybertruck styling and yes, it is swept back and efficient looking which is why I warmed to the design a few months back, not as bad as it first appeared - maybe they cleaned the styling up from the early  impressions. Whatever it’s going in the right direction.

Since I was having a major brain fart and couldn't remember the Chevy El Camino name, I googled Ranchero and this popped up: Ranchero /ranˈCHerō/ The term ranchero translates from Spanish as "rancher" or "cowboy"   The Ford viral website for the CE1 mentioned Welcome to the Ranch....so maybe this will be called the Ranchero?   Some activity on the USPTO https://tmsearch.uspto.gov/search/search-results/99320314    

I think the biggest issue is that this vehicle is going to reset or confuse people when it comes to size.   People have been bitching about the F-150 getting bigger and bigger, when it really hasn't, outside of more four door models being sold. The biggest change is how high it sits vs older models, making it taller and seem "bigger" then it actually is.    The CE1 pickup is going to be sitting lower to the ground then what most people expect a modern Pickup to do. I'm guessing its going to be akin to the Ranchero or El Camino.   

The Ranger and this possible F-100 would use steel instead of aluminum like the F-150, but apparently this article got the plant location inccorect, so I'm guessing its just a nothing burger at this point.   I don't know why Ford would build a presumably heavier steel bodied F-150 EREV vs building the rest of them in Aluminum. Unless the next gen drops aluminum for cost reasons?

Damn, I wasn't so sure, but seeing it like that with the vase built into the dash and a rose in it has turned me into a tub of goo. 

Look at that the other way around, Ford could pick any style it liked and went for this because air needs a certain shape to slip pats easily…..thst was the priority here remember, everything was made smaller more efficient so it costs Fird way less to produce. The hope is that the confluence for all that gives a vehicle thst still appeals to plenty of buyers…..

Not following or understanding the F-100 connection with the F-150 EREV?

This is contrary to Ford's previous statement that the F-150 EREV will be built at the Rouge Electric Vehicle Center:   https://www.fromtheroad.ford.com/us/en/articles/2025/ford-reinvests-trucks-hybrids-affordable-electric-vehicles

Yuck. I wonder if the turn signals are going to be subscription option only? 😀
