According to this article, they must have made some internal changes to the 6.2L for 2017, because the torque has increased from 405 lb-ft @ 4,500 rpm to 430 lb-ft @ 3,800 rpm
In the past, the rumor was the 6.2L was not offer in Super Duty because of potential overheating issues. They must have fixed that.
Actually, the big win of newer Super Duty pickups over older ones in the 6R140 transmission. SOLID !
The other interesting rumor is that Ford is working on a 8/9/10 speed transmission for Super Duty and Medium Duty (as motor home) trucks. Probably more than a year away.
I have seen articles saying that the 2017 was "all new" but have not been able to find out what is new about it. However, if the articles that I can find on the 7x engine are true it is going to be a heck of an engine and might be out soon.
Maybe look at the pictures in the articles then. 2017 is the first major revamp of the Super duties since uhhhh 1999.
