I’m very excited about the new Super Duty, as I do a lot of hauling for side work, and Super Duties are the only thing they use, with just cause. However, most of the shots released today after the embargo lifted have been of the front - which, by the way, looks great in the matte black plastic on commercial trucks - or the sides but not the rear. Well I found couple shared here.

I think the rear is the unsung hero of the redesign: it incorporates Ford’s new design language, but also incorporates strong cues from the global Ranger not sold here. Perhaps there’s hope still we might get the Ranger as an F-100?

Autoblog also has a clip of the front of the commercial truck, which I took a picture of since I can’t upload photos through my work computer. Sorry the image quality sucks, work has an old, cheap monitor with a glossy screen.. Here’s the original source:

I like it. Which is good, considering about every single oilfield worker in Northern Alberta will get one.

I like it. Kinda like the 97 and earlier tall and rectangle tail lights.

Don’t worry there will probably be about 17 wheel options

That looks unusually high in the back. Could do some serious damage if somebody rear-ended it in a smaller, lower car.

It’s a lot better going then coming. That rear looks sharp, I actually like it. Unfortunately, any view from the front is just hideous. I’m lenient with design, I liked the Aztec from launch, Hummer H2, etc but this. I’m sorry. It joins the Ford Edge.

Yep. Work computer blocks screenshots and file uploads, so had to take a camera shot. I'll fix it when I get home.
