    Looks like a Hard-core show truck to me.

      just wrong imo...

      edit: just thought of this, hows the shifter sposed to work?? Why would you want to shift it into gear and into 4wd at the same time? it sure doesnt look like you can seperate the two..

        The rear has plenty of leg room and the rear seats look like Lazyboy recliners, in the fifth picture at the bottom, it looks like the rear seats recline with a foot rest.

          I despise fake wood. Looks like a ship deck inside. Super Chief? Does it say Super Chief?... WTH? All that new design and they straight up steal a name from '50 Pontiac? Uhhh. Please. Actually the design to me is not as bad as some that try to be ultra modern or futuristic, whatever you call it. Think Aztec or early Avalanche. If it sells well looks like Exxon has a bright future too.

              lol....but I believe it is a lever to choose Hydrogen or Gas.

                It runs on Gas, Hydrogen, or Ethanol.

                  Looks like the shifter is 3 parts: left is gear selection, center switches from gass/eth to H2, and right goes 2/4H/4L.

                  IMO, its pretty ugly on the outside... and not much better on the inside. But, hey, different strokes for different folks.

                    Very Buck Rogers. Lotsa gauges, or are some of them just places to put idiot lights? Fake wood looks stupid. Exterior is striking, maybe a bit over the top.

                        So, for about the same price as a fully-loaded 1993 Ford Festiva, you could also wield the power to obliterate a small village in the blink of an eye.

                          My thoughts also. Looks too Buck Rogers like Tom said.

                            Believe it or not, I like this truck. It is huge, but they didn't cut out much of the truck attitude or room. If it comes out, I will have to test drive one, even if I have no money or intentions on buying it!

                              I really like the interior! Love the back seats too... reminds me of Maybach. But, knowing Ford, I bet if it makes production, it won't be affordable to everyday joe.
