I would like an all aluminum truck.
It wouldn't rust out.
Rusty trucks suck!
I like to do my hunting BEFORE I pull the trigger!

In Hail Central, USA, the cost to insure that sucker would be equal to the cost of buying it.
May have to look at Toyota, or even Dodge...

Insurance is going to be more expensive.
Question is, will all of us absorb the increase, or just the ones that own that type truck?

That "test" is being roundly denounced.
I understand Ford has been training body shops on how to do the repairs. The parts are glued together, so replacement actually goes pretty fast.
I suppose there were people who objected to Ford adding colors, and of course how was the car ever going to be a substitute for horses?
Ignorance is not confined to uneducated people.

I sent an email to my son saying that he best be considering buying that loaded up '13 F-150 he's leasing when it's due in '16... A few vids like the ones above - if they get around - may very well cause sales of those Alumafords to drop like the fly balls at Target Field..

All of the lots I've seen in my travels have tons of '14s left, and I imagine one could score a pretty good deal on one. I had a '12 F-150 4X4 with the 5.0 V8 and wouldn't hesitate to buy another one.

I had a '12 F-150 4X4 with the 5.0 V8 and wouldn't hesitate to buy another one. Local dealer told me they took another 100+ '14 F-150s due to the late arrival date of the new Alumafords.. I have a feeling they'll actually make some real bux on those - after people research what the new AFs are gonna cost; not only in repairs, obviously, but when (not if) insurance companies charge a premium (PUN!) for those particular units..
