You might want to go back and check on that. Most Ford threads I pass right by, the only ones I post in (for the most part) are the ones that turn into a Ram bash fest. The only reason I even posted on this one was to point out to the OP that maybe he could have given it a better title. Then maybe the name calling could have been a voided.

But then the Ford boys had to start talking smack and I'm good with that. :W

Hey Don.
Just wondering :@
Since you post on almost every Ford thread, will you be commenting on the thread going on in the "Truck Campers" section bout--
Dodge (sic :W)front end issues.
P.S. They are not talking about grilles. :S

It's not my turn to do anything. :h When it's time for me to buy a new truck I'll study what each manufacturer has to offer and make my purchase. Until then I'll continue to enjoy my tin can. ๐Ÿ™‚

I don't care what someone drives and I didn't slam the OP simply stated he should have renamed the thread. Just because the the person that made that video does not know the difference (they did but whatever) does not mean Catfish does not. Then he comes back and calles posters weirdos and stupid but I'm the one that's "getting a little cranky" :@:h

If you would look at the video the guy is pushing harder in the white truck, look at how white his fingers get! When he is pushing on the Red truck they do not turn white. It's a commercial not more nothing less.

OH on Edit: Nope my "panties (are not) in a wad" but I was thinking maybe you might have been having a bad day!? Again didn't get why you felt the need to call posters names, no one IMOP post anything that warranted it. But then again I sometimes misinterpret peoples post also like some of you have done with my posts here. The difference is, I do try and apologize for being an ... well you get it right. :W:W:W:W:W


Wow... more drama than the other guy. Must be smoking and sippin on the I-talian koolaid in the parking lot with the other union workers.

BTW... Watch the guy in the reflection on the door. It appears he positions his feet to push each truck in a similar manner.

This video exemplifies the term "Kicking the Tire's". Something I did with the Chevy truck when looking at new trucks in '12. I couldn't get past this phase once you're forced to look at the interior. :E

BTW...thanks for sharing the video.

Geeze, lighten up. When cars went from a heavier gauge metal to one lighter the lesser stiffness was obvious. The OP is just showing that the aluminum Ford is using isn't a further step down that road, but that the aluminum seems to be stiffer than the steel it is replacing. Wouldn't you do something similar if you got up next to your first one?


Thanks for getting it, and as I said unscientific. Evidently, some weirdos thought they would get to see a brand new truck getting beat on.


Not sure why you would post "2015 F150 door panel ding test" when the video is showing panel flex. A ding test is like when a door opens into the side of another vehicles door or panel and leaves a dent or "ding". Maybe correctly title your thread next time.

BTW until that "test" is done by someone other then Fords "Special Vehicle Team" it's nothing more then a BS commercial for weak minded people.

Don


That's the title of the video, I didn't make or title the video. You always seem to have your panties in a wad.

The 2015 has "C" shaped headlights (LED), the "F" in F150 is just an outline with the body paint showing through and the rear side window has a kick-up at the rear to offset the kick-down of the front windows at the side mirror. It's suppose to weigh about 700# less than the 2014.


And there is a slight "kink" in the carpet down by your feet that isn`t there on red trucks only black and silver!

Yea, the video could have been titled better.

However, playing the devils advocate here.. it is nice to see how rigid the aluminum F150's are compared to the current model.
