Opinions? First hand experience? Only thing I didn't like was the 8.4 MPG on the test drive. 4.30 gears....is this accurate?

Thanks

From what I understand the 450 is rated to tow 24,000lbs and it comes with 4.88 gears. Make sure you get the highest mileage warranty you can because this truck needs its cab removed for any service below the top of the motor.

Even my buddy , who is a ford truck sales manager doesn't recommend it. He says they've had nothing but problems with them!

Who is coming out with the 6.7..

I have had my 450 for two years and have not had any serious issues.. The truck runs good but i am not a fan of this new motor.
As far as the truck is concerned i dont think you can buy a better looking truck. Handles and rides great...

The 2010 Superduty will run to February, at which time the 2011s with the new 6.7 will come out.
