Is this the start of Workhorse again? Isuzu?
Is this the platform that may come back as the Workhorse chassis or will it come from something else? http://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/gm-to-return-to-us-medium-truck-market/ar-BBl8VZz?oci...

So Ford is getting a 6 speed tow haul transmission in 2016. I guess this is similar to what WH had with the Allison transmission way back in 2006.
It was easy for Ford to be leader of the pack when they had no competition.
Talk about engineers that screw things up, the two piece spark plug fiasco that Ford did with the F53 chassis up through 2008 is a perfect example of bad engineering. .
Yes Ford has some issues but as time goes on it will just get better if they stick with the current V-10 and transmission, I have the 2 piece spark plug now in my 08 and soon to replace them with the newer 1 piece spark plug but other than that the chassis is flawless so far.
The spark plug that breaks in 2 pieces is only a minor issue if you replace them before 50,000 miles and they have a tool to remove broken piece if it happens, many now on Youtube have videos about this and its almost a 100 percent removal without any issues if done early..
Here's a success removal, hope mine goes this well
