The fuel-efficient truck of the future

America's best-selling pickup is about to be redesigned and Ford is previewing the model by introducing the Atlas concept at the North American International Auto Show.
Sporting evolutionary styling that is heavily influenced by the F-250 and F-350, the Atlas embraces the "Built Ford Tough" image with a prominent grille, bulging fenders and off-road tires. There's also LED headlights and a tailgate with an integrated spoiler. Even the cargo box was given an overall as engineers equipped it with multiple tie-down points, hidden extendable ramps and a 110V power outlet.
The cabin has a familiar design but is equipped with premium leather seats, contrast stitching and metallic accents. While the production model will lose the high-end amenities, Ford says we can expect additional rear seat legroom and controls that can be easily operated with gloves on.
In the tech department, there's a variety of new systems that make driving a pickup easier. Key among them is a new 360 degree camera and a Dynamic Hitch Assist system which precisely lines up the truck’s hitch with a trailer coupling.
Power is provided by a next-generation EcoBoost engine which features direct injection, a turbocharger and a start/stop system. It promises to deliver fuel-economy gains of "up to 20 percent" when compared to "larger-displacement engines."
To further maximize fuel-efficiency, the Atlas has an active shutter grille, active shutter wheels and a drop-down front air dam that automatically lowers at highway speeds. Ford estimates these tweaks will enable the model to gain an additional 2 mpg highway (US).

Looks like a knock off of the Ram. I like the back end a lot.

you are kidding right?
It looks just like an F150 raptor combined with a new Superduty..... nowhere does it look like a Ram to me.

And i would buy that realllllly fast (but im sure it will cost 50-60k) new trucks are way too much $
 
Ok, so the concept looks similar to a Ram. Not sure why it's such a problem. I like the concept, and I like the Ram trucks.
 
I can kinda see some RAM similarity's after its been pointed out, but not much. I really hope they dont stray too far from the concept because I love the look, although im not sure about the exhaust.
 
just another side of Fords stupidity. keep building em bigger and bigger but keep out the Ranger because it doesn't generate enough cash for the greedy pricks.
 
Took the wind out of GM's sails at their first real show with their new model trucks. Hell, it overshadowed the C7 in some ways. It's a big deal because unlike the C7, which might sell 12k units per year, the F Series sells well over a half million units. Helps Ford's bottom line just a bit more than a halo car. Not trying to take anything away from the C7, but they're two polar opposites in the automotive spectrum.

:roll:

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't you retired from Ford? If so, wouldn't their "greed" help pay your pension? You know some people really like the Pinto, it's a shame they don't make them anymore!
Yeah, it's really dumb for a business to focus on producing the products that actually make money. :lol:
Stupid business plan! They should make shit that doesn't sell, run their business into the ground, then expect the tax payers to bail them out................wait a minute, didn't that just happen to someone? ;)
 
Just came back from the auto show. That is one bad motherfucker of a truck. It just looks awesome in person. They will sell loads of them. I thought the the new Rams were quite nice in person, actually better than the GM trucks. Then I got in a Tundra and realized that everyone that lives in California or any other state that thinks that thing is remotely competitive with any of the Big 3 trucks is just literally out of their fucking mind. Wowee is that a distant 4th.

The interior quality of a Tundra is about as good as a Power Wheel toy.
