Yes, indeed! Will be interesting to see what, if any, options/changes are made.. Should have an order guide before too long.

I'm in need of a 21 f450 chassis cab... I wish they would add more power to them.

It's interesting that there have been no leaks as to what changes are coming for 2021. We are little over 2 weeks away and nothing

Strange, the spec sheets online for the 2021 F650 have no mention of air compressor, air brakes, or air ride. After doing some digging, I found an update saying that would be a 2022 option. Waiting anxiously for that, a 7.3 F650 with air ride and air brakes would be light years ahead of our aging-but-hasn't-been-worth-replacing lumber wagon F650!

Just what the Super Duty was lacking in 2020, more shades of gray!

Honestly, the thing that doesn't excite me about this generation of Super Duty is the color choices. I thought Magma Red was a good look, and then they discontinued it mid-2019.

I agree as to color choices being limited. I was hoping they would offer a choice for a black interior on the limited trim

I was waiting for the '21 order guide, $2,000 PCO in hand. I was (still kinda am) hoping Ford brings back Green Gem and adds a black cloth option. A man can dream...

I would be a buyer for a black, or even a much darker gray cloth interior. Keeping the light gray seats clean on a work truck is not ideal.

Antimatter Blue.. Looking at pictures of that color online sure looks similar to Blue Jeans.

I wonder how that air compressor connects to the 7.3 (geared? belt? PTO?), and if it can be retrofitted to an F250/350 with 7.3. That would be nicer than the aftermarket electric currently being considered on my to-do list...

Looks easy enough to bolt on later, except maybe the oil fittings depending on differences from the 250/350 to 650/750 oil pan etc. Thanks! Where did you get that pic? Is it on the upfitter/BB websites?

Huh?

Air compressor has been a option for a while now.
