Pulled the TT to our usual campground in Fl last week and although I had the only 6.7 I would guess 90% of all tow vehicles were fords. I even gave a guy in a 7.3 a jump start...wouldnt have been a big deal except he was a seminole fan....I guess the ford brotherhood runs deep. Go Gators...

I still see more GM/Chevy's here, but they are cheaper and that's how some people roll.
Almost all tow trucks are Fords, and I've seen a ton of new 2011 tow trucks - that speaks volumes right there.

Even in Michigan, during a depression, I see more 6.7's each day. I try to talk with the owners...Over the weekend, I talked with 2 more 6.7 owners. No issues, very happy with their trucks.
While others will come here with tales of 50% dissatisfaction ratings and multiple crisis level scenarios, I just do not see this in the people I am talking with about the truck.
Regards

Saw two at the boat ramp yesterday at Sheep Creek (Flaming Gorge). Mine made three and it's a small ramp.... Best looking trucks in the lot!

Surprisingly, I'm not seeing that many down here! Saw one yesterday, but they seem to be few and far between. LOTS of '08 - '10 though....

I have seen four 2011s in the Monticello area [pop. 5500], 3 diesels and 1 gasser. What I notice more of now that with any of my previous trucks is pretty much any time there is a Dodge around they must make there presence known. It's the little things they do. Let's say I'm getting fuel, and a Dodge drives by, it's almost automatic, as soon as they see [=] they have to punch it. I think we make them nervous, and it's funny as hell to watch them.

Where I live in Michigan 2011's few and far between. All the campgrounds up here are filled with Ford tow vehicles. When I go down to Florida it switches to GM, go figure.... I give a thumbs up to every 2011 I see....

Not too many here in my neck of the woods yet. I had a guy and his toddler practically drooling on mine when I came out of the store tonight. He asked so many questions I lost track. He couldn't believe it was a diesel. Last thing he said before he walked away was to ask me if I wanted to trade it for his Dodge.
