new SD powertrain

That new 6.0L and 5-speed is hot but I sure hope the folks that buy em really need em.This is a serious work and tow truck,not for commuting to and from work! Commuting would be a big time waste for this rig! If you just wanna commute and cruise,get the gasser and the 4R100.So before any of you guys scramble to buy the new rig,please make sure you really need it.If you`re not gonna tow anything,dont bother getting this rig.Remember,its not enough to want a truck just because it looks good and sounds good,you have to really need it or its just a waste of truck.Just a little commentary there.:-)

Damn poopey! You a freakin' liberal or something?!?

Who the hell are you to tell me or anyone else what to buy? Or only to buy what we need? Man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The first few posts of yours were tolerable but this trolling crap is getting out of hand. Either bring some technical discussion to the table or leave the table.

So you mean I can't just have it for looks? I was thinking of getting a CC 6L/TorqShift for groceries and still using my F150 to tow my car hauler and Dodge...

I thought I'd be the only one with a Superduty and not have a hitch!

I am going to get one because I like it not because I need it. Getting it for invoice doesn't hurt either.

I don't NEED mine at all. I teach school and live a whole mile from my work! But right now when I look out the window and see that nice shiney blue Ford Super Duty with all that pretty chome stuff on it, it just makes me feel warm and fuzzy all over! Who NEEDS this stuff, maybe if you tow a fifth wheel, own a farm and need to haul stuff around, have a construction company, a snow removal company, tow a large boat or for that matter any other toys around. Speaking of toys, WOW this just might be one.....
Sure like my 6,500 lb gas guzzling UN-NEEDED toy!

poopey, your not a member of the Sierra Club, are you?

I'm buying a big huge Ford F-350 because it will **** off all the narrow minded, intolerant eco-**** here in the San Francisco bay area. Is that a good enough reason?
