Don't get your panties in a wad yet fellas. They are just using the '08 truck as a "mule" to pack around the engine that they're working on. I'm pretty positive that the new truck won't look anything like that. Hopefully they won't do anything stupid like Dodge and go for all-out ugly on the next version.

My question is why do they keep designing v8 diesels? An I6 creates more torque from what ive seen.

That was a different era, no longer do most manufacturers stick with the same body for over a decade.

They just keep f'ing stuff up don't they. They need to start over with a new company to build their motor. The name CAT comes to mind

It's a cup to catch all the leaking oil.

This is all ********, The new f series will look nothing like that. That truck looks like someone had a bad acid trip and decided to start designing lol. I cant see the body changing for a while but i think the new engin could put some interesting numbers on the dyno. Wut can i say? I am a sucker for some powerstrokin

2005 F-350 XLT Custom, Bullydog PMT,Airaid cold air kit, Skyjacker 6" b&f, 4" ARP custom exhaust, 325 mickeythompson, Motto metal 18" Assualt off road rims, Katzkin custom lether seats, ARP studs, Boston accoustics complete 12" audio unit, The best alarm money can buy..(these powerstroke's are a easy target, some food for thought)
