[QUOTE="JoeSC, post: 1598540, member: 43683"] Technologically and mechanically the Gen 3 is the way to go. Visually, I haven’t been a fan of the new F-150s. They’re not bad, I even like boxy designs but this feels like halfway in between, like smoothed boxy. They just all look like Super Duties to me. Gen 3 Raptors are no exception. My truck is perfectly capable of anything I’d be putting it through at this point and I think it looks way better—so I’ve got no fomo. I’m also not ragging on the design to make myself feel better. I just feel like, for me, Gen 2 is the apex of the genre. It had to have been a difficult task to update the body. Gen 2 is pretty much exactly how I would’ve designed it, which is rare for me with any vehicle. For the most part Gen 3 is ok. I really miss the C-shaped halos on Gen 3. The most egregious thing is that hood extractor. It’s fugly. If I bought that truck, I’d even go so far as to custom fabricate my own version. It looks like LEGO and not even the normal bricks, it looks like DUPLO. I can’t wait to see one in person. [/QUOTE]
