2017 SD will be great for F150 sales.

I was waiting for the SD before deciding. Now It is just about price. When does pricing and mpg #s come out?

AUG 2016 expect all the information to be very close held until it is being sold/ordered. MPG? Not until they are in the hands of owners, they don't test the mot and any short term test doesn't do anything.

Official mpg doesn't get released for 3/4t+ trucks by the manufacturer.

Don't the manufacturers have to start releasing MPG information on all light duty trucks starting in 2017? I could be wrong but I thought I read that some place.

CAFE standards son't apply to vehicles with a GVWR of 8500 lbs or more. Ford is very smart not to drop too much weight on the superduty and keep the GVWR at 10,000 or more.
