Spy shots of the facelifted and refreshed Ford F-150 are out, and design changes are looking minimal for the time being. Most likely, the updated F-150 will be released for the 2024 model year. Ford launched the fully redesigned truck for the 2021 model year, so that puts it on track for a timely mid-cycle refresh.

As for what we’re seeing in these spy shots, the majority of the front end is covered. However, the lower front bumper doesn’t have any wraps on it, and this shows off a tweaked design down below. The grille looks the same as the F-150 today, and we can say the same for the headlight design. Since Ford is covering up most of the bumper, hood and fender, we suspect that there could be some slight revisions made in these areas as differentiation from the current truck.

The rear is notably more interesting than the front, and it’s what we can’t see that intrigues the most. Ford has the tailgate fully covered in a heavy sheet of camo. There are some access curtains, but we can’t see anything going on underneath it. Perhaps Ford is developing a trick tailgate that it wants to keep under wraps. Both GM and Ram offer optional and odd takes on the traditional tailgate, but Ford hasn’t integrated anything in this space beyond the “Man Step.”
