V10 Production Numbers? Manual Transmissions

Ron Earp · #1 (**permalink**) 02-22-2012, 01:54 PM

I'm interested to know if anyone has a source for 2008 F250 (or any F250) production numbers? I'm trying to figure out if this 2WD V10 six speed manual truck I have is extremely rare and if so how many were actually made. I'm under no illusions it'll be worth money, just curious.

What got me thinking about it was I was looking for 2WD six speed manual mileage numbers in the fuel mileage polls and noticed that near about every truck listed was 4WD and auto, a few 2WD autos, and I saw only one 2WD manual listed.

Thanks,
Ron

I haven't a clue, nor could I tell you where to look.

I had to order the truck in my sig, luv the truck much more since getting w/ 5 Star.

I can tell you, not many of these puppies around though.

You might be able to call Ford's customer service and actually get an answer...

Ron, I've watched your other threads here, and you're fishing to sell your truck.

I suggest you stop, as the guidelines specifically state this is a no-no.

Hi,

I disagree that I'm fishing to sell the truck. I am in the decision making process about keeping the truck and collecting as much information via searching, reading, and asking questions as I possibly can. If I decide to sell the truck I assume that I can pay to support the forum and place an advertisement here. I run a web forum, GT40s.com - Powered by vBulletin, and that is the way we allow folks to advertise and sell their cars there. I understand how much trouble it is to run and moderate a forum and do support other forums that I visit.

Thanks for the suggestion with Ford Customer service, I think I'll give that a try as the Ford Racing folks are very helpful.

Rustyfury, how did the 5 Star tune affect your truck? Did you specifically look for any mileage increases or decreases? It was my understanding from reading on the forum that the tune was helpful, but specifically so in the cases of trucks with an automatic transmission.

Thanks,
Ron

Ron, I see you made it here from rrax.
Enjoy the knowledge, there's plenty.

And I think I mentioned the 5Star tune improvements on rrax?

Yep, there is some good info here for sure. It looks to me that if you've got a V10 you need to give the Five Star tune a go.
