We heard back from Ford with an update to the issue we encountered. The truck you see here is a pre-production unit. Ford inspected the truck, identified the calibration issue, and said the calibration will be fixed when first production trucks start shipping to dealers within the next several weeks (end of May or in June 2018). When asked, Ford did not provide specifics of the calibration issue. However, the company said that all customer trucks will have this issue corrected.

Good to know that the downhill will be improved, now if they could only get it to go uphill better. :)

I think for its intended use this truck goes uphill just fine. 20 years ago you would have been hard pressed to find any pickup, gas or diesel, that could do any better towing an almost 9000 lb high wall trailer up a 7% grade at over 9000 feet elevation. However, I do agree that if you have these kinds of towing needs, get a 250/2500 diesel.
