No I am just curious.It looks like a decent engine.However Ford will find some way to screw it up.They always do.Of course the Emissions crap doesn't help any.

In terms of "emissions crap" they're all going to come with it from the factory. It's unavoidable. It's not going to be a Ford or Dodge or Chevy thing. If you're in a state that doesn't do smog testing, you can rip it off, but it's getting harder and harder to do, esp. here in Cali.

Blizzard, definitely agree with you on the straight axles. I think GM should continue to offer the 2500 with IFS for the guys that want a cushy ride, but offer the 3500 with a solid axle for guys that want a heavier-duty truck. Probably won't happen, but who knows.
