Visually, the 2009 Ford F-150 hasn’t changed much with the most significant difference being revised front-end with the three-bar chromed grille that’s inspired from the Peter Horbury-designed Super Chief concept truck that was shown at the Detroit Show in 2006. –Continued after the jump

However, according to Car Magazine, the biggest news is the addition of new diesel model which will be equipped with 4.4-litre V8 biturbo-unit delivering a hefty 330 HP and 525lb ft of torque.
