Default That truck is hot!!! Actually, I love all of Ford's new models, especially the Fivehundred

They've really outdone themselves with gorgeous vehicles (except for the Focus, which is just 'meh'). The retro-look Mustang is awesome, the new SuperDuty is unbelievable, the Fivehundred is very German. The Freestyle looks like a shrunken Explorer or Expedition. I like!

And I know what you are trying to get at, yes the front end treatment looks like the new Audi waterfall grille

You mean you love the looks right? I bet a short test drive would curb your enthusiasm.

That's because J Mays used to design for Audi, so you constantly see Audi cues in the new Ford cars
