Nope, a whole mess of them showed up at my dealership a couple days ago. Every last one of them were diesel. I think Ford is still on "if you want it, order it" for the V10. But I suppose once the ball gets rolling on the '05s you should see more of the gas engines.

Ford isn't dumb... They know there are a bunch of PSD junkies out there that will drop major $$ to have the latest and greatest. The more they sell before the incentives start the more $$ they make.

Got to any Ford dealer and ask to see this years production prediction charts.


They have all the different wheel bases and motor combinations listed by percent of production run.

Bad news for buying V10 off the lot....


FoMoCo only plans to build 10% of ALL 05 SuperDuty with the 3 Valve V10.

Get your order in early!

Yeah that aggravates me. Every dealer in upstate ny has a lot full of 5.4 XLs and PS/torqshift Lariats and all are 4wd. They either want to sell a cheap truck on price or they want to hook you on the high dollar ones.

We will probably have to order a new 05 because we are looking for a crewcab 6 speed in 2wd with either a v10 or PS (undecided on the PS its a great engine but sooo much money).
