yea in all honesty I agree with you guys as well. the older chevy's and fords as in before this year were decent looking. but now I mean honestly wtf. My neighbor got one and I laughed teh first time I saw it. His front bumper is sooo low it almost bottoms out when pulling out of his driveway.

We have a couple 08 fords in our fleet we just got here on the base. We all agree that they look like an Ugly ford truck had sex with a retarded baluga whale. I have no idea how that truck got through design. It's friggin ugly.

That and the huge emblem forward of the passenger and driver doors that looks like its missing two pieces (as circled in provided picture).
But, thats Ford for ya.
I guess they think they make up for crappy engineering and styling by being "the company with the most 5-star safety rated vehicles". (But, behold, crash tests are done at 35MPH into a "fixed barrier" which the government claims "is equivalent to a head-on collision between two similar vehicles each moving at 35 mph" [call me stupid, but 35+35 doesn't equal 35])

in the mind of the gov't 35+35 does equal 35. . .it is mind boggling. . .and yes I even work for the gov't. atleast the people I work with on a daily basis work. . . .for the most part
I guess part of the design features of the truck came from being able to remove the cab easily to gain acess to the engine for repairs.
you do know Ford is finaly in the black right. . . cause most of the poeple have wised up, and dropped CTD's under the hood or completely gotten rid of the truck and gotten something else

I thought Ford was back in the black because they laid off all their lazy workers (designers, engineers, people that make their ads), not that anyone would be able to tell the differance.

I dont think I am 100% on this, but there are 6-8 bolts holding the cab to the frame. those bolts come out, undo the quick dissconnects, pull the A/C system and use some straps to some lift points on the bottom of the cab and lift.
a similar procedure has to be done to the 6.0's to pull the heads off. only instead of yanking the whole cab off they just pull the mounting bolts and lift it up enough to gain acess to the head through the wheel well.
