Job 2
Quote:
Ford Super Duty Reclaims Diesel Power Title: 400 HP, 800 Pounds-Feet of Torque - PickupTrucks.com News
The one-ton Ford F-350 dual-rear-wheel is getting hardware improvements that will increase maximum payload and maximum fifth-wheel towing to best-in-class levels. Increased use of high-strength steel in the frame will boost the maximum payload to 7,070 pounds, up from 6,520 pounds, and max fifth-wheel towing to 22,600 pounds, up from 21,600 pounds.
There's no increase in conventional towing and payload for F-250 and F-350 single-rear-wheel trucks or the F-450 pickup. Current owners of F-350 DRWs will not be able to retrofit their trucks to the new towing and hauling figures. Only 2011 Job 2 F-350 duallys will carry the higher ratings.

So since these higher rated duallys are going into production at the end of Aug I guess that means that Job 2 is coming earlier than originally thought?
