Ford finally releases pics of the F-150 Lariat Limited (w/ video)


Click image for gallery

The 2008 Ford F-150 Lariat Limited was announced weeks ago by Ford, but the Oval only just got around to releasing a couple of photos of it. We don't know what took them so long, seeing as this Lariat's a bit of a looker. Sporting a White Sand Metallic finish that also trims the grillework and the factory 22-inchers, the snappy-looking SuperCrew doesn't stop there. Chrome running boards, gray headlight bezels, smoked taillamp lenses, a two-tone leather-trimmed interior and some other cabin accents round out the new limited package. Sorry, no pricing yet. Maybe one of these days, Ford'll actually get around to releasing a shot of the fancy interior, too.

UPDATE: Video added after the jump, including interior. Thanks, Zymo.

In the Autoblog Garage: 2008 Ford F-450 Lariat King Ranch



The first time we laid eyes on Ford's new F-450, we knew that we wanted to run one through the ringer. Intended to satisfy those customers who find traditional "one ton" dually trucks to be a bit too limiting, this massive vehicle pegged our more-is-better meter. The F-450 is, in fact, so big as to make the title of this post a complete misnomer, as it takes something more like a barn to house this much truck.

Ford Super Duty seeing super sales


With gas prices at record highs, Ford's heaviest and biggest trucks, the F-350 models and F-450, are surpassing all sales expectations.

The decked out Lariat and King Ranch variations of the F-350, as well as the F-450, are going gangbusters, with the King Ranch up 53-percent over last year, while the Lariat is up 30-percent. Overall, both models are leading their segment. With options topping $17,000 and sticker prices exceeding $60,000, the truck's decent sales are likely a breath of fresh air to the incentive-prone automaker.

Ford has more to brag about in its lighter trucks -- the F-250 also continues to be the top seller in its segment, and the F-150 historically has been one of Ford's most important vehicles behind the Taurus, set to relaunch this fall.
