Test drove the new 6.4 yesterday in the King Ranch package, The truck was very nice. Except for 2 things, The power wasn't what I thought it would be and the $58000 price tag sucked too.

When you stopped did it idle at 1200rpms? :-) I've heard this from many people. I just bought a 250 CC King Ranch with LWB. It is very strong getting stronger by the tankfull. I had buddies comment on how fast and strong it felt compared to their 6.0's. "No lag at all" "On my 6.0 I have to put my foot in it to get it to move" Then I have this one (Friend of a friend) "I bought one took the thing back after a couple of weeks and got my 7.3 back! No power! Lost 2 grand in the process!" I asked my friend who knew this guy to drive mine and he was amazed at the power and response of my truck. ???? Who know's!?
Now the sticker price? I just grabbed on tight, got my x plan pin, and yelped a little when the Doctor said "your gonna feel a little pressure"

$58K? Ouch!
My '07 KR had $53K on it and I thought I'd need a home loan to drive it home.
For $58K, one would be looking at close to $70K out the door, I'd imagine?
How did you like it over your '03 interior wise?

I am very impressed with mine. The ride is extremely nice for a 1.5 ton truck. Pulled with it for the first time today and it was really nice. Smooth, quiet, strong, excellent interior. It cost a bundle, but I like it more each time I drive it.

I got my '07 KR in November after nearly a year on contemplating whether I wanted to wait for the '08s or stick with the tenured 6.0 and aside from engine numbers, I'm not sure if I should have waited for the '08 based on the interior.
Obviously, it's too late now but aside from some minor interior design changes, they really look pretty much the same. I don't have a problem with my interior at all but just can't the decision whether the '08s are that much nicer.
