Ford Atlas Concept - Page 2

Looks like a Toyota...........

KMPrenger · 01-15-2013, 11:01 PM

Clearly a concept...at least that front end, but the sides and rear are pretty doable.

Haven't read much on it yet....but I will. Love this kind of stuff.

It looks like truck from a 1985 cartoon that is supposed to take place 30 years in the future.

Have you seen the "all-new" sierra/silverado??????? For a complete redesign..... seems to be lacking.

I like this one, but it's well over a year from production so who knows what the end result will be.

Kinda looks like a ram and Toyota puy together

TJ91 · 01-16-2013, 01:39 AM

Looks like a F350 to me, but better and for an F150, the design is bold. Hope its production

NASTY99Z28 · 01-16-2013, 07:47 AM

I like it and with a 5.0 tuned for pulling it would make a great truck IMO.

The Atlas concept has been around for a while. Just this week, Ford starting calling it the 2015 F150. I still think it will soften a little, smaller tires etc by production. But I do like the design. Reminds me of the more muscular appearance of the Raptor.

I like it but maybe with some different rims and tires and in white it might look much better

Waaaaay better than the Silverado/Sierra "refresh." Good looking truck and a step in the right direction. Seeing what the EcoBoost engine can do now, I'd be interested in what this new Eco Boost is capable of.

Autoblog had some nice shots of it....

I finally got to sit down and do some reading about this truck on MTs website. Sounds like Ford tried to rain on GM's truck parade and did just that. MT says the truck, besides needing some tweaks to soften up the front end, and a more production like interior looks ready for production.

I agree. If they do the front end right, I think it could be a great looking truck.

I'm one of the few that actually seems to like the new Chevy truck, even though it did leave me wanting a bit more changes in the style department, and somewhat the interior. If Ford really can significantly reduce the weight of its F150, then I believe they may be putting the hurt on GM. Its one thing for Ford to upgrade its truck and stomp on you during the middle or end of your truck's lifestyle (like they've done), but to stomp on you again at the launch of your new truck has got to really hurt.

GM needs to give us more juicy details of its new trucks, and fast.
