The Highline includes Three exterior colors,Unique all chrome billet-style grill,chrome exhaust tip,tow hooks, mirror caps and bed tie down hooks. 5" tube step bars, captains chairs with unique black leather, ebony accents, unique instument panel inserts, instrument cluster w/ chrome accents and enhanced message center.
The OUTLAW has Black monotone Paint with a unique red tapestripe, Body color front grille, mirror caps, door handles,wheel lip moldings and front and rear bumpers.Chrome exaust, unique instrument panel insert, unique instrument panel applique, all weather floor mats, unique door trim panels, unique black and red leather trimmed captains chairs w center console and flexfold 60/40 rear bench seat.
I ordered the Lariot model loaded. Ordered it from Harold Zeigler Ford In Plainwell, Michigan. My guy Shulack called me 2 days ago and said they are available for order. It will probably take a couple of months though.
Just thought I'd let you guys know they are available.

I agree and that is what I was told. From my favorite dealer..

the 6.4L will not be available until jan 2007 weather ford has it ready or not. the reason for this is that engine is designed to run on ULSD only. ULSD will not start hitting the pumps till october. the governmen mandate is jan 2007 for all pumps. ford is not going to release an engine that is hard to find the right diesel fuel for.i can back this up to. why because it is on the ford bulletin this morning. i doubt your sales guy ordered a 6.4L truck. orders probably will not be taken till october or november for the 6.4L. also ford said on their bulletin this morning that any 6.0L built in 2006 can be used in a 2007 truck after january 2007. the emissions regs goes by engine production not truck production. this being said i highly doubt we will see any 6.4l engine until the 6.0L stalk is used up.

The funny thing is that 6.4 is not even in the order specs yet for 2007.
Dealers still have to sell 6.0s like it was yesterday. So maybe in 2/07 we might hear from the dealers on the 6.4. So until then it is going to be 6.0 all the way

sorry for the error, my last post in this thread said it came in, but in fact it was another customer's truck, but the basically 95% the same thing. it didnt have keyless entry and adjustable pedals. however our new truck is in, it came in yesterday. i passed it on the highway on a carrier as i was going to lunch. an hour later they called, it was in. it looks just like all the other 2006's out there, and it has the 6.0 in it. we go on vacation after next week, and that is when the 2004 will be no more, and the 2007 will get the old truck's body.

Everyone was so pumped about the rumour of this 6.4 and as far as any dealer info goes, the 6.0 (which I thought plenty adequate anyway) is still the ONLY diesel engine available in F250/350. I know....Ive looked through the dealers 2007 F250/350 spec sheets. As for new body and interior.....???????? havent seen any hard evidence that anything spectacular is going on there either.

6.0 diesel buy back
What procedures did you use to get ford to buy back your vehicle? I have an 04 Excursion 6.0 diesel. Has run like a champ for the last two years (31K miles). All of a sudden it runs like crap. Have to press the gas pedal to the floor to get it to move, takes forever to get to 3000rpm for the trubo to kick in. Used to kick in a 1500rpm and was quick to get there. Have had the truck in service 6 times in last 25 days. They replaced all the parts their going to and telling me the computer readings are within ford specs. Still runs like crap. They say to drive it for 500 to 600 miles, it "is a learning vehicle, it will read how I drive and make adjustments it deems necessary". Is that for real? They say the truck is good and no more repairs. How do I get ford to buy this 6.0 lemon back? Thanks for anyones help.
