If you want to see the 2010 F250, watch Toby Keith's new video "Who's Your Daddy" He is driving the rebodied 2010.

Ugly Truck

Wait a minute---I have'nt been on the forum lately. I think if they would just switch the parking lights and the headlights (swap places) this truck would look a whole lot better. Might even be "attractive". Later, Sisiryder

No doubt Ford has heard the nation wide wailing and knashing of teeth over the "looks" of the '08/'09 Superdubby. Like someone else mentioned, certain colors/trim make it look great, others...not so much. I have faith in them to produce not just a GREAT new powerplant, but a styling change to match. I personally am hoping for a "retro" look like the mustang got...personal fav is 1968 - 1972, but the 1980-86 was a tough looking truck too..

Sweet Jesus man......Punctuation saves lives!

The 7.3 cannot be made to meet new emission standards not to mention it's an IH engine. That relationship is dead.

Now by saying" bring back the obs" I assume you mean to say that you like the Retro Style of the current generation of cars.
I think something could be done in a retro style but the trucks from the 60's were butt ugly. It would be kinda hard to design a 50's looking modern truck.

As far as the 2010 truck, Ford just spent a ton of money on the F150 redesign and a massive chunk on the 08 F250 redesign.They will not do a major makeover on the 250 for another 2 years or longer depending on the current automotive market.
