LONG LIVE the V10!!!
https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/9...10-option.html
Read the Ford media release here:
FORD CLASS-EXCLUSIVE V10 GAS ENGINE, TORQSHIFT TRANSMISSION WILL POWER MEDIUM-DUTY CHASSIS CABS | Ford Motor Company Newsroom
Holy CRAP. They are introducing the 3-valve V10 into the medium duty class with the 6-speed TS tranny.
So, how long do you think they plan on doing that? One year? (hardly) - 5 years?
Looks like we'll be able to get parts for the V10 for a LONG LONG LONG TIME.

I'm new to the V10, but I'm glad I don't have to start hording parts.

A quote from Ford's media release:
"An alternative fuels engine prep package will be available as well. The conversion option, which will become available this fall on F-450 and F-550 Super Duty chassis cab trucks that use the 6.8-liter V10, enables the use of efficient, clean-burning compressed natural gas (CNG) or propane (LPG, or liquefied petroleum gas).
The engine comes with hardened exhaust valves and valve seats for improved wear resistance and durability for gaseous fuel systems."
Propane and CNG. Gotta luv it.
