Ys but extra rear leaf only for 18" wheels which I can't figure out?

 

You guys realize they did away with the oh ***** handle on the drivers side. why would they do this? That thing is my best friend when I am off road.

 

I read that too. SUCKS.

Wonder why? Save .03$

I understand GM did same thing w 07+

 

I want to be able to pick and choose my options because IM PAYING $30-40g's for a truck. THAT'S WHY.

Having the ability to mix-and-match options is what Ive liked about the F150 and Rangers over the years. Hardly any two are identical from bumper to bumper.

 

Sorry, 3.73s and the extra 10hp is just too fast to be safe. You need to have the parachutes to go with it.

Weight savings. You'll thank them at the pump after you fill up from an offroad adventure

 

i agree and if im paying 40k for a truck i want a mnin refrigeratorin there

 

I thought the power was supposed to be 320/390 for the 5.4, not 310/390. Not that it makes a big difference but just noticed.

 

I noticed on Ford's web page that they have a picture of the '09 towing a fifth wheel camper, very impressive considering that only a fews ago it would have been considered as taboo to pull that kind of weight with a 1/2 ton truck. I'm impressed.

It's amazing what a 10 HP increase will do.

 

another member in our saskatchewan chapter regularly tows a 5th wheel camper trailer with his '07 F150. its a decent sized trailer, weighing in at about 8500# and the truck handles it with ease.

 

The additional HP and TQ help but I think the new tranny deserves much of the credit.

What additional torque? Didn't you get the memo? It's still 365

 

about time

 

i would take either of the numbers you just posted, its 320/390 on E85, its 310/365 on gas.

 

You and me both! Dang, anything to save them a cent.

Is it the red one? I think that truck looks sweet! But not sure I'd be willling to tow that 5th weheel.
