At least they're better looking than the 08-10, the grill being shaped more like the 05-07 is much better

hmmm anyone else notice the F250 and F350 axles appear different now ?

did the F350 move up to the Dana 70 by chance ??

p.s. it also appears someone stole the piston display for the new 6.2... haahahh

Holy cow! Awesome pictures, thanks a bunch for posting up all of those.

What's up with the 411HP for the 6.2L on that one sign? Is that only for the Raptor?

Well, I guess I laughed at the fenders on my buddy's dodge to hard. Now Ford comes out with the same UGLY fender on the dually.

I actually saw one of these driving near Speedworld in Wittmann during the Desert Diesel Nationals. They look much better in person.

Thanks for sharing Adrian! I love the new fender flares on the dually,it gives the truck a whole new look aft of the cab.

I'm really excited for Ford right now. I know the 6.2L is going to be a great engine and I feel that they have done all the right things right on the 6.7L.

I like the dually fenders also Tim, but from what I've heard from others we are definitely in the minority with our opinion.
