Found these photos of new 2007 - Looks nice, but don't doesen't have the same off roading appeal as a first generation. Looking forward to see what (if anything) Ford will produce in a normal production unit.
Might be a tough truck on a nice straight freshly paved road. As for any vechicle it can be jacked up to meet its owners needs....look at the Explorer it doesn't look very tough but add some lift kits and it does fine. Not everyone is going for the offroad look but some are and this will not be the truck for them...they will more than likely buy a F series truck or just something else but i would love to own this truck as i don't offroad nor want to.
Don't forget that those pictures are of the SVT Adrenalin concept, not the regular ST, so naturally, it's not set up for hard-core off-road use. (But then, neither is the current ST, IMO.) If the Adrenaline is anything like the SVT Lightning, it will still be a real truck, though. Just quicker. ;-)
