Visually, this medium-duty truck looks very stylish and modern. The front grille is unchanged, along with the headlights and the hood. Speaking of hood, its sloped design looks very impressive.
Whatsoever, F150 wear a similar bonnet. Roof, door sills, wheels and windshield will remain. Styling-wise, F650 is similar to the F250 heavy-duty pickup. The same cab variants are available once again. On the other hand, the Blue Oval could introduce one or two brand-new exterior paints.

All of these features are standard on the range-topping trim level. Interior is practical like before and room from the inside is generous.
