The 2011 does NOT have an exhaust brake. It uses the transmission to slow it down on descents. Ford was not quite forthcoming on their advertising on this truck. Check with Banks, or BD or PacBrake on the subject if you doubt me. They can not even build one without cooking the turbo! My good friend Bill Gehr who writes articles in Trailer Life has a 2011. He is very disappointed that it does not have an EB.
Here is what Bill Gehr wrote about a 2011 F450:
All right, enough of the techno-babble, how did it tow?
Well, the F-450 had zero trouble hauling the relatively lightweight 12,900-pound Montana
fiver around town, up a 7-percent grade and on moderate mountain passes. The Enhanced Tow
Haul Mode with Integrated Engine Exhaust Braking ensured smooth downshifts via a
brake-pressure transducer, which monitors the actual brake pressure applied and helps when
descending a steep grade. - See more at: http://www.trailerlife.com/reviews/trailer-reviews/2011-ford-super-duty-f-450-and-keystone%e2%80%99s-montana/#sthash.Bkp44dhi.dpuf
I believe that the F250 & F350 worked the same.
