2017 F350 DRW - Anyone Ordered One?
We plan on ordering a 2017 f350 drw to haul our current lance or maybe a new 1062 lance. Just wondered if anyone has ordered one. I understand they are taking orders and production begins 11 July. ...

Brad! Long time no see.
I was very seriously considering a 2017 F450 - Look at those before you make up your mind on a 350 - LOTS of differences now, like 19.5's, Dana110 rear end, and bigger brakes, just to name a few. I did a LOT of research....But the $82k OTD price pushed me into a used 2015.
I don't think they've announced HP/Tq even now, but word is they will push the tq from 850 to 1,000ftlbs just for bragging rights. A programmer will take any of the current 6.7's there. I can personally attest to not needing it though, see my thread on Observations - Going from an '01 F350 DRW to a '15 F450.
Here's a post in a thread I did before buying my '15, comparing 2016 to 2017 F450, as well as F350 vs. F450--
Ford tests 2017 SD with TC simulator.
