The Big Boys have Just Arrived

Whoa! $53K for an XLT gas truck!?

Not familiar with a dually, how does the 5400 lb payload compare? The 7.3 sounds pretty good at the tailpipe.

I too am a fan of that grill. Clean, classy and not overstated. Did they show the tow rating for the dually with 3.55 gears? The 10 speed probably makes up for the higher rear gear handily.

Wish they would have sent the 4.10's in the dually instead of the 3.55's.

Going to be great to see how this new 7.3 does...

I'd like the new grill, the more torque/power, the 10 speed transmission and the little interior improvements might be alright too.

I actually really like the King Ranch grille; I think it's a great improvement over previous models. I'm hoping that view of under the hood of the 6.7L doesn't give me nightmares tonight though......:B Seriously, it is a beautiful truck.

I'm really looking forward to seeing what the 7.3L will do. Everything on it looks really good and it should be a great, reliable workhorse just like the 6.2L has been. I'm betting it will sound mighty good pulling the Ike! :C So, is there any way to determine if a truck has the 6.2L or 7.3L without looking under the hood? I couldn't see any badges on it indicating it was a 7.3L.

I had to chuckle a bit seeing under the hood of the 7.3L, though; a few features reminded me of the 5.3L in my 2001 Yukon! :B

There's no question the 7.3 has some Chevy LS DNA. As for exterior engine labels I don't see one for the 7.3

Calm down Cummins12V98. He has every right to be excited. They are new versions of his favorite brand and he is excited just how you would be if it were a Ram.

I have to say I am tired of people trying to say what I am feeling and thinking. I certainly don’t need anyone telling me to “CALM DOWN”

I simply said “OK”

Relax? Is that better?

Not really. I didn't even have an explanation point. Simple OK
