2017 F250 CCLB King Ranch w/6.7 Powerstroke; Basically the identical truck, but with a long bed and diesel.

Actually, that was my question too...but it will make for an incredible opportunity for honest comparison between gas and diesel, longbed and shortbed.

Not sure; I'm entering into this arrangement wanting 'my truck' back. Perhaps this is a ploy to woo me to the 'dark side', so I go in asking to 'swap' trucks, and make the entire transaction go away.

I've started a thread where I compare the trucks, but the problem is I only had mine for 3 days. I have actually had the loaner longer and have over 500 miles on it already.

The thread is here:

JeepPuller, You're hearing April 24th?

I'm just trying to figure out when my truck might be released to me...

He told me fix to be announced in 4/24 parts to dealerships by 4/26. He relayed a discussion he had with his FoMoCo rep on 4/13.
