Re: NAIAS New York Times

That is actually very nice, much better than the current crab like Eclipse, very Italian.

Re: NAIAS New York Times

Hey, they took the picture of the new F150 down. Gee, I wonder why. Must have had something to do with breaking the embargo early.

Jalopnik will provide, as always.........

Looks like a decent MCE. I don't like the grille though. Looks like the head of an electric shaver. I would have actually preferred if they kept a consistent 3 bar grille like the Edge, Taurus, and Taurus X.

Re: NAIAS New York Times

I would pick the king ranch over the platinum anyday, I know the platinum is the new luxury version but that grill doesnt work well with the design theme of the Ford brand it would had been better as a Lincoln

I agree that last generation didn't do it for me. I loved my 01 Eclipse though.

Re: NAIAS New York Times

The Eclipse and Genesis look the best, but I was more interested in GM vehicles.

Re: NAIAS New York Times

The F-150 used to be a good looking truck.

Re: NAIAS New York Times

The F-150 and Ram both look pretty nice this year. Kinda makes you wonder if they'll be fighting each other for awards.

I guess most people don't care about frames, but that makes me sad.
