Same reason they have the same platform since 1999. The die hard Ford fans don't care so why do anything but one up your competition on paper if you can get away with it. And they have!

As far as the Tractor Engine comment, Ford has thought so much of it and the Allison Transmission they have been and will exclusively offer them thru the 2015 model year.

They have finally decided that giving the Tractor engine such advertising did not help their troubled PowerStroke line.;)

Ford's Super Duty has been "Often Imitated but never duplicated" and that has been the theme from the competition since it's release. Ford's Super Duty has been a great platform since it's release and is just beginning to show it's age.

Ford has never bashed the cummins tractor engine... That was Gale Banks.

Back away from the Goat Kool Aid....It's effect is showing! :W
