There's also the issue of driver and technician familiarity- For example, a fleet with a lot of F series pickups that needs bigger trucks is likely to buy a Ford medium because their drivers and techs are already familiar with Fords. -

Absolutely. Probably around the level of the mirror arms, I'd say a good 2-3 inches below the beltline. -
Besides the wheels, it probably won’t look much like this. It’s too high off the ground. Bumpers wrong. Zesty pointed out the differences in the hood slope. Plus the windshield isn’t sloped as much or long enough. Remember in the camo images we’ve seen, the windshield extends over a good portion of the front wheel well. Looks like they copied the front lights from the blue truck sketch. The rear cab has a bit of a buttress going on (slightly angled). Hopefully thats not accurate.

This is how the telo’s mid gate works. The rear seat backs are attached to the mid gate. Opening the midgate essentially is folding the rear seats down. Skip to about 2:30 in this video to see it.

Well, I could see where dropping the 450 thru 600 Super Duty models might have an effect on fleet sales of the lighter Super Duty trucks, but at this point I don't think dropping the 650 and 750 models would have any effect on sales of other Ford trucks, fleet or otherwise. Purely an anecdotal observation on my part, but I would say that the majority of large fleets that I see with class 3 through 5 Fords in their fleet are soucing their class 6 and larger trucks from PACCAR, International, and Freightliner.

Going back to this ticket thing - I wonder if additional reveals are happening 7/15 (almost here) and 8/27? FWIW, Borg's latest info for it: Details about the Skunktruck are due to start coming out in early August, including the name. The reveal is scheduled for January and reservations will begin immediately for the 2028 MY. I guess Ford is calling this a "Season of Reveals". I kinda suspected this was coming, their go-to-market strategy is to hype up each innovation independently to inform attitudes before the truck is fully revealed. Farley has mentioned it's a new form factor, not just a pickup. If they dumped it on the market in one confusing/boring burst of announcements, it might be rejected at face-value. The semi-mid gate has me interested more than anything. The mid-gate is built into the back seat and folds down to open up the passthrough. Smaller but simpler than the full midgate GM offers. The load floor under the rear seat is flatter than Mavericks, but not completely flat like F-150. It also has a fold flat front seat, a feature that comes and goes at Ford for some reason, but it will be very useful here.

I also think the lower window sill are going to sit below the belt line since they are camo'd in photos. -
Yeah IDK where they got that. The biggest discrepancy is probably the hood tbh. Its way steeper and based off the tarp photo has a bezeled leading edge.

Not sure if it'll look like that or not, but that's not that bad. The heavy wheel flare crease on the front wheels, and no crease on the rear wheel flare is strange.
