How quiet is the '11 PSD? (I SAW ONE ON THE ROAD!)

I couldn't believe I saw one today in person while driving! Un-camo btw. It was purdy. I didn't know it was REALLY OUT for purchase!
Things I noticed.
That front end looks killer in person.

L.E.D. dually fender lights...awesome.

They went with the 08 style dual tip with the cooler venturi's!

and how quiet and clean is it really? Well cruising with him 80-85mph I could not hear a diesel, no rattle or whistle at all when I was checking out the badges, and I had my window down right by the tailpipe too, I couldn't smell a THING but the wet road, and the hum of his tires was louder than the exhaust. A prius is louder than the new Superduty. Crazy.


Awesome truck. A marvel of diesel technology for sure.

Did it have temp tags or anything??

That's pretty awesome that you saw one!

I saw a car once on the interstate that had all kinds of sensors and 2 laptops in the front pass. seat. I assumed it was a "tester" car.

It had Michigan tags on it.

Pretty cool.

I'm just wondering what you expected to smell at 80mph?

Anything lol! No fumes whatsoever.


Today I saw a couple 2010.5 (said so on the sticker) F150's. One was a Raptor. Very very very cool.

Rather than start another thread, because I can't find the original, I got quite a few pic's of an cut-away engine and the engine bay of the '11 over the weekend at the Texas State Fair. As soon as I can get them uploaded I'll update them to this thread.

I don't think you can purchase one yet, but you probably saw some Ford exec or something driving one around

I like my diesel to sound like a diesel and smell like a diesel. Just my .02

Pretty cool you saw one.
