2008 Ford Super Duty Article

Just found an article on the '08 Super Duty that'll be released early '07. Although I'm not fond of the looks of the truck, it sounds like it's got a lot of nice features, amenities, and capabilities to make you forget about the exterior. If you need to kill some time, read the whole thing, it's interesting. Ford diesels outsell Chevy and Dodge diesels COMBINED. And yes, this does have the new 6.4 twin-turbo diesel.



Article.

A clip from a video on their website.

It's nice how the F-450 is now available with a pickup bed right from the factory. The towing capacity on these things is rediculous.

Re: 2008 Ford Super Duty Article

I prefer the grilles on the previous generation of Super Dutys, nice truck though. After owning all three manufacturers, I'll stick with Ford trucks.

Re: 2008 Ford Super Duty Article

This is the first real clear view of the truck Ive seen. At first I was skeptical on the looks and have a 450 on order, but now that I see it, I'm pleased, looks aggressive and those side cooling vents look Ford Tough. I prefer it over the new GMC I've got ordered for my partner as well. Jeff

I think the look might grow on me...I like the "Super Duty" in the grill, and the side vents. Nice touch.

I'm beginning to not mind the looks so much. It's growing on me, I guess. It's edgy and agressive. The 6.4L TT is supposed to be the sht!
