I recieve a lot of compliments on my Ruby Red Platinum.

Update on exhaust brake- Rode with my cousin in his 07 dodge and tried the exhaust brake without a load going down a similar hill. It was the same as the Powerstrokes EB. With knowing how well his works I'm confident that fords will work just at well. With this info and the fact I can get the truck just the way I want, I decide to order a '15. Woot Woot

Sgt93 I was looking for a F350 XLT CC in sterling gray but all anyone could get me was lariets with lots of options i didn't want. I was in the same boat, I had a great deal on a leftover '13 but I knew if I bought it without test driving a '15 I'd probably end up kicking myself later on, glad I waited. Plus There just something about knowing your getting a truck exactly the way you want it that makes it feel like its extra special lol ( my vehicles are like my children)

I still say SGT93 should just sit down with a dealer and order one, wait for it come in, and go from there...

He seems to be as picky as I am about what he is looking for in a truck. Including options that he doesn't want. (I am the same way).

I would have to agree completely. If you don't get exactly what you want, you may regret it. You shouldn't have to accept a compromise.

Just passed a Ruby Red King Ranch (wife driving) and man it really looks good. It's a contender for sure.
