Ole well the Dodge boys can't use the old statement " Why do Fords use a Cummins in the 650 & 750 trucks" much longer :B

Hey at least Ford is using the Ram mirrors now :W

The new PSD numbers should be interesting when they are released.

I'm surprised that the new Ford medium duty (F650/750)doesn't offer engines/transmissions more typical in other MDT brands, in order to be competitive.

I don't know if they are going to be selling for less than IH , Freightliner, etc...given the engine lineups include just two...a diesel engine till now, just used in pickups (6.7 diesel) and a gas engine. Not sure if any other current MDT's even have a gas engine as an available option.

I'm a bit disappointed. I used to drive MDT F series trucks a number of years ago. Thought they were good trucks and competitive in the market.

I guess we shall see.
