F O R D on Tailgate

**Title error, meant Tailgate

One thing that's always bugged me a bit is the giant F O R D on my grille. I've got no problem with Ford as a company but I kind of feel like a mobile billboard for them. To each his own but to me, the less lettering on my truck the better.

If the new model's tailgate matches what we've seen so far, we can expect to have an even larger F O R D on the tailgate.

Your thoughts on if the final build will have the giant letters on the tailgate? Or, will they default to the standard f-150 scheme?

Supposedly it will be an option but no one knows. The grill is bad ass by the way and I think you will be the minority with this gripe.

i think your about the only one i have herd not like it!, shit regular f150 guys put thoes terrible DOOD grilles in to imitate the raptors

When the Raptors first came out I hated the front grille but now I think it NEEDS to be there, its part of what makes the Raptor sweet.

And Ill just echo what was said earlier, the big Ford ***** stamp tailgate might be an option.

Depends...

What has your local ford tech told you as "factual" information, and what are your thoughts on the "all-new" transfer case??

Choose your words wisely, or prepare to don the flame suit.

Love the "FORD" on the front grill. If you put "RAPTOR" up there then no one will ever ask "what do you call this awesome looking truck"? lol

I like the grill as well.. Well, I should say, I like the brick front look, but not the big F O R D letters. I wish it was all brick.. Don't get me wrong though, I can see how most would like the current version(with the F O R D). It does break up the brick pattern nicely.

There was a time when the only time you heard from Pirate Air was when he would explain the viscosity of the transmission fluid after running for 32 minutes at 90 MPH at an elevation of 8765 feet... ;-
