    Not a fan at all of the gimmicky shift handle. I get why they are doing it but that is just something else to break or cause a problem. Did you miss the center arm rest folding forward? In the ad I saw when you collapse the shifter you can unfold the arm rest forward to give a large flat surface. That might be an option idk. I like a lot of the other stuff and it looks good. Ram still is top truck in my book with this a close 2nd.

    Ford makes the best looking trucks in America. And now the most functional trucks too. The design and functionality of interior features tells me they had the owner in mind when they designed this truck. Ram may be giving Ford a run for their money but Ford is still on top. A naturally aspirated V-8 is the best option engine wise. The heck with those turbo options and an LED speedometer display makes it even better. I want one, time to go buy a lottery ticket and hope for a winner.

    I'm amazed by ford's way to deliberately stealing money from its customers by just doing a couple of different body lines, new lights and grille, putting technology that has been in other brands for yeeears, a foldable(BREAKABLE) shifter instead of dial or push and pull buttons like all others and save all that space for the driver. And presents it as totally redesigned and put a sticker price of "60K" for a lariat and if you want more fancy options and unnecessary "Bling Bling" you gotta go to higher trim with the Killing ranch at "$80,000.00" what a way to fool me right on my face!!!

    I like the new F150, I'm glad Ford finally updated the Tech. I hope a Pano roof is a available with the Lariat trim.

    This gentleman does very good reviews. Was waiting for him to review this truck.
    If you’re going to spend 50k on a truck this is the way to go. I test drove this truck. Best truck I’ve ever been in. Smooth driving powerful and efficient. Interior is finally nice. Didn’t like the out going F-150. The inside just had too many cheap feeling plastics even on the highest trim levels. This truck still has plastics of course but they are much better. Test drove a 2.7 EC, 3.5 EC, and the 5.0. That 2.7 is no joke.
