that is correct info, on the current 2017 super duty you CAN NOT order the factory 5th prep on the 2wd. Its in the order guide.

I will not buy one until they change this :)

That's odd, I wonder why that is? I've met several people over the years that specifically buy a 2wd because its cheaper, better fuel mileage, lower bed height, etc.

I wouldn't think there is any fundamental frame or rear suspension differences between the 2wd and 4wd. I really dislike when manufacturers mandate certain things in order to get certain options. Ford with the 5th wheel mounting, Chevy won't let you get the big gas engine in the lower trim half tons, etc. Let me buy what I want...
