So my first thought is either Ford has now heard us about the all blue interior and ditched it, OR the 35 inch trucks with Recaro seats have an interior that matches the Gen 2s? I say that because at 22 seconds, it looks black blue inside.

And if the numbers are 450/ 550.. all we get is 40 more ft/lbs power wise? I sure don't see many Gen 2 owners upgrading.

The video is about a month old. Was posted here a while back. I wouldn't take too much stock in what this guy says regarding pricing. $59k is the base price of the F150 Platinum. Limted is $70k. I would expect it to be somewhere in between?

Am I only one who gets first excited and then pissed off by reposts of old videos?

I don't really get excited about it, and am therefore not disappointed when it's old news.

Ya. We should probably have a pinned media page.

I don't think it would make a difference. Reposts will still happen. Not blaming OP, but people are only going to do so much research before posting. I just remember that vid, and I'm not going to look back to the original thread either.

Only thing that would really work is if the site did a validation of every link (video or pic) with a warning on submit that this is a duplicate. Well, maybe not the only thing. Banishment would work too, but possibly overkill.

A “final” iteration of the “venerable” HO 3.5 EB, presumably w/ “all” the kinks worked out & a minor power bump would be fine by me....personally I think they’re throwing bigger snails on it & power will be more like 550hp/600tq (don’t see Ford allowing the aviator- hybrid or not- to out muscle their best 1/2 ton)

but the IRS ALONE along w/ the enhanced interior/tech would be more than enough to sway me toward a gen3

after it’s been out 2 years & the guys w/ deeper pockets & shorter patience but the first couple model years up @ ADM & play guinea pig for me bahahahah

IRS? You mean Independent Rear Suspension? It still has a conventional rear end, not an IRS.
