no kiddin where are the pics? Id be willing to take a list of what pictures to take, but since im probably going to use all 500 slots on the f150, i hope i cover them, unfortunately the buffalo show is small and were lucky enough to get this truck, it will probably be a platinum and there will only be one.

Well, if DearbornDerek says the Plat grille looks much better than in the shots Ford has provided thus far and the media, perhaps you can get some more realistic pics of it.
I want to see what those storage compartments look like inside, especially the one with the jack in it, because I want to know if it will be rattling around in there making a quiet riot like in my '04, or if it'll be nice and snug to not make so much as a peep.
Hopefully the rear sliding window and hood cowl have also been addressed as rattly areas in the '04-'08 models.

Definitely take a lot of pics. At first I didn't like the Platinum edition grille all that much but after seeing this video I'm starting to think it could be the best looking one. The satin chrome finish seems really nice. You get a more realistic glimpse of it at about 15 seconds in.

Hopefully I will get a look at the Baltimore Autoshow. They do list the 09 F150, Flex, and Mustang Bullit as being there. That is also where I got my first look at the 04 as a pre-production.

I got some good pics of the King Ranch F-150 interior/exterior at the Houston Auto Show but I unfortunately won't be able to upload them until Tuesday night.
Funny P.S. I went to the George R. Brown convention center, and all I saw was pink cadillacs. I was like, "Are you joking?" Turns out it was a Mary Kay Convention and I was at the wrong place. I found the right place and drooled at/on the King Ranch F-150.

Thnx for pics!
Looks like that one has the backup camera, doesn't appear to stick out badly from these pics. Was it really noticable to you while you were looking at it in person?
I like how the KR has the tan running boards and bed rail tops. But I've always hated the interior of them, the crazy weirdcolors of the leather pieces look junky to me, mismatched. Seems '09 KR has same thing, ugh. Poor KR interiors... I feel for you. :o

Look forward to more pics! If you can get some of the storage compartments/glove box/center console open, etc. that would be cool - haven't seen the size of any of them yet. Inside where jack is stored, etc.

Yeah, he was a Ford rep, I wanted to get up there and just lock myself in, but no dice. I've never been crazy about the King Ranch and still am not, but the 2009 f-150 body in person is very good-looking. Maybe having to drive across the actual King Ranch in TX(largest in world) is what bothers me about that edition.
EDIT:It was up on a rotating platform, I couldn't good pics of the interior without being kicked out. I'm liking this hitch step, its a good idea.
