The coach will be built on a Ford chassis but the question concerning transmission will depend on the chassis year. Ford update the transmission to a 6 speed for 2016 but the soon to be your new coach could be built on a 2105 chassis which will have a 5 speed transmission. You can decode the chassis VIN which will state the power train configuration.
Great tip! I decoded and found out it was a 2016 F550 Super chassis. Can't seem to find any specific transmission info but it looks like they all come withTORQSHIFT® 6-SPEED except for the F-450/F-550 models with 6.8L V10.
How can I tell before I go see the dealer?
