2014 Superduty

Has anyone heard anything about a new design for the 2014 Superduty?

Nope but it would be cool if they did a retro of the OBS.

i know ford is making good money on the currently body platform, but I think a complete ground up new model would be good. I want to say I heard 2016 we would get this, I know thats the year for a brand new mustang.

It would be cool if they went retro and used a US built diesel engine and a US built transfer case. They could also go retro and use a manual transmission.

If its not broke, why fix it? Ford has been making big bucks off of this general body style for a long time now with no signs of slowing up. Making a drastic change would be stupid.

Not gonna happen, it's cheaper to build the engine/trans in Mexico and ship them to factory.

the 6R140 in the Super Duty is built in Sharonville, Ohio. The 5R110 is built there as well. Diesel is built in Mexico.

Hmmm...Ummm...but which OBS are we talking about???

Personally...I would LOVE to see the '73-'79 body style back...in a modern version.

Very true. I don't know why I like them so much. But is the 08-10 really a OBS since they are still using that body style?
