Sounds like I should let my dealer keep my 08 if it ever shows up! I swore I'd never buy another Ford after my 04 F350 arrived with a factory defect in the tranny that ended up being removed and rebuilt 7 times in the first 2 years. But being shameless as I am, I went ahead and ordered the 08. Just wish they would add the flame thrower problem as an option with a button on the steering wheel for "flames on demand". I'd go up to $500 for that option.
I checked into other brands and even with the problems Ford's had and there inability to stand behind there product the way we'd like, I still think it's the best option on the market if you need truck that can handle heavy duty work.
I hope my 08 doesn't prove me wrong. And I'm hoping it'l arrive on the 15th of October as scheduled. lol
