How about an air bag option on dually's, it seems that 90% of dually owners on this site put them on or in my case, 4" blocks, to help with rear end sag. I am tired of buying a new truck and needing to put on new shocks, air bags, track bar, better headlights, just to get it at where it should be from the factory.
How about the pathetic short box fuel capacity?

It's almost been a year and no reply from Mr. Ford. The only improvement, at least on paper, is the updated chassis.

Gotcha. I thought you meant he was incorrect in saying it had been almost a year...
I think the rumor is still that we will see 500 hp and 1,000 lb/ft soon though.

I had higher hopes the new Nissan Titan would get better fuel economy. At this point, my needs of a truck don't require 1,000 ft lbs of torque and I'd gladly trade 100 ft lbs for 2mpg.

I know I'm in the minority. I think the new heavy half tons have potential...but the 3.0L diesel isn't enough @ss for what I want.

Me too... and with what came out... no thanks...

I kinda wanted a smaller 4WD/AWD Diesel truck that got decent miles per gallon.

The Chevy Colorado Diesel is looking good.
