Ford E-350/E-450 change not mentioned...

So far no complaints on the v-10 in our 2016 E-450 chassis; but its only a month old with 900 miles on it.

One less engine Ford has to assemble. Once the Transit came out, the E-series cutaway was the only platform left using the 5.4 and 6.8 Triton engines. All other truck series had moved on to a new line of V8 engines (or V6 Ecoboost) that did not fit in the E-series.

Most of the 5.4 E-350 cutaways were going to a (non-RV) market that has moved on to the Transit platform now that a T-series cutway is available in the E-350 GVWR range. Transit and Sprinter are almost the only game in town, as Express cutaways have been unavailable for almost two years now.

I wonder when Ford will come out with the T-450 and T-550. Not sure what engine they would use, although an EcoBoost V-8 would be nice.

I recall the F59 commercial stripped chassis still uses the 5.4 standard. (V10 is optional there, standard in the F53 MH chassis.)

The V10 is still being used in the F450/550 cab/chassis trucks.

The 5.4 V8 and V10 were both replaced by the 6.2 V8 in F250/350 pickups and F350 cab/chassis trucks, starting in 2011 or 2012 model year.
