I'm moving from the 1999-2016 section of the board to this section! Just started the buying process on a 2017 F350 6.2 CC XLT loaded in Ruby Red Metallic. Will be a nice upgrade from my 2006 F250 XLT. Should be picking it up on Friday, we still have some paperwork to do and the dealer has to get a Line-X and bed mat done. I'm looking forward to the new features and "luxury" of these new generation of trucks. I'll be doing truckside Fisher plow hardware and a full LED warning/work light upfit as well over the next week or two so stay tuned for some updates! Great posts in here, great info!

 

Another 6.2. Hell yeah. Truck looks great. Congrats!

 

Sharp looking truck. Good move.

 

You're gunna love it !

 

Thanks guys, I'm very excited. The 6.2 seems to have plenty of power and is very smooth. Diesels are great and I drive them at work, but I wanted to stick to a gasser for a personal. Hunted around a while to find this truck and I'm happy with the deal. While I am sad that my run with the 06 has come to an end, Friday can't come soon enough!

 

Nice! Welcome.

I too moved from a previous Gen truck to a 2017. Be sure to check out the 6.2 section too!

 

 

That's a good looking Super Duty! Congrats!

 

Thanks! I did just find out my truck won't have remote start, which is important to me living in New England. I did however find the kit from 12Volt Solutions that is plug and play and essentially activates a factory remote start feature in the truck, so I will be installing that. Anyone used this system yet?

 

Some have. Some go with the Ford OEM parts to support remote start/stop/lock/unlock via your phone (celluar). The hardware is about $75 or so more and it requires a $50 subscription, but it's far more useful if you want to start it remotely when you would otherwise be out of keyfob range.

 

Thought about that, but 90% of the time I'm within fob range, and I'd rather have a one-time cost versus subscription. But that is a great option for higher tech wants!

 

Fellow m********* here...sweet truck. I have the same in black.

 

Nice!! You northern, southern, or western?

 

Nice rig Lucas. Congrats and enjoy... Oh, and western MA here...

 

South shore.
You're gonna be very happy with the power difference compared to the 5.4!
