Click on this link and look under the "capability" tab. It is shown in one of the videos there.

They really do turn sharper than the old ones. When Purnell took me for a ride in his, it made a u-turn that my wife's Excursion will not make. I was impressed.

There it is, thanks. For some reason, I couldn't find that "reveal" page last night, that has all the videos and stuff.

I believe the good turning is only on the 450! W/ the front wheels out wider it is in my opinion alot better look'n than other duels!

Just picked up my 08 F250 King Ranch FX4 last Friday...Wow!! I call it a F250 1/2 because of the tow bar or spring leaf option that gives you and extra 1000lbs towing capacity over the stock F250. I just sold my 06. As my friend says the difference in the 08 rig vs. the 06 rig is like the difference between a prime filet at one of America’s top 10 steak houses and a filet at Sizzler. The nav / stereo system looks to be the same as the one that Ford puts in the Range Rover. Nice sound and GPS feature!

Mine turns better and is more agile than the old. The power steering is more sensitive.
