No. but it has some cool features, too bad it's concept only. I wonder what " Force 5" means. I tried to " GOOGLE " it, AllCaIndex.com has the photo but no info. a few comments at the bottom don't help much either

It looks kind of like a computer rendering more than an actual concept.

The front clip looks like a '93 but the rest of the cab is 83-92, I would think in '92 they would be starting to have concepts for the new '93's bodystyle.

that is what I thought too. and teh mirrors... I can feel my neck getting stiff and sore from looking up to check my mirrors lol

Also the ford emblem in the middle of the bumper is odd, and what are the panels for just behind the doors in the extended cab section? A doggy door?

It's a not very well hidden smuggler's door. Kind of like the 'Fall Guy' had on his truck.

I'd like to know if the rear flares open into the wheel well.

Billy S down in the TRS research department found it, and gave it to Bob S in our publishing department. He ran it past Betty S in the legal department, and she delivered it to my desk.

Ya, that's a bunch of BS. I found it one the interweb. It has to be real. They don't put anything on the interweb that isn't real.

I second that. Looks like it should be parked next to a Pontiac Fiero (full disclosure - I wanted one of those in the ‘80s. Teenagers - sheesh!). :icon_rofl:
