BigStu....I don't think he's asking what it comes with...I believe he already knows. What he's asking is WILL his truck have the 3" due to the changes in the order guide that have been discussed on here. They appear to have made some changes as to what trucks do and don't get the 3". Most know how the 3" comes....just not if they will get it now.

Yes...but there have been reports that NO F250s get the 3" any longer....even the 250 HD....and ONLY long bed 350 SRW diesels....gets the 3"...no longer the shorty. I think that's why he's asking. I could be wrong with the above...but the guide was showing some changes for sure.

It is still up in the air at this point. I was told the day the revised order guide hit the ground (1-5-17) that the change went into effect. I saw a truck at a dealer in town that had a 1-17 build date with the 3" hitch. This was two weeks ago. Truck went from built at KTP to Ga in record time.
Only way to know is to wait and see.

My 250 HD came with the 3". It was built on 1/03.

Not sure if gas ever came with the 3" hitch. Would have to have been a DRW 6.2. If you are getting a long bed 350 SRW diesel or long bed 250 with high capacity tow, you will still get the 3".

Yep....you are correct...so the reason he has a 3" on his HD short bed because it's a job 1. According to the new guide...only LONG bed F250s with HD pkg will get the 3". Is that true?
