Looks great. I normally hate it when guys put chrome anything (steps n your case/taillights in Fords case) on a monochrome FX4, but with silver you can get away with it. I think tailgate (3 odd bars) looks best in silver too. Nice. V nice.

From what I've read @350hp and similiar or slightly higher tq.

"Ford has announced the official power ratings for the upcoming 6.2-liter V-8 version: 411 hp and 434 lbs.-ft. of torque, making it the most powerful half-ton pickup." http://special-reports.pickuptrucks.com/20...-announced.html

I'm with you, I'm waiting for a 2011. Between, Coyote, EB & possible Boss good things are coming... They're just a couple years late. Any one of those should be considerably better than current options. Only problem is based on info that floated around 2-3 weeks ago, the MY 2011 F150 only starts production late @ mid Nov 2010. So we gotta wait another 15-16 months min until they're on the lots.... SUX.

Any "possible" tq gap will be overcome with the new 6 speed tranny. I suspect it'll come in closer to 425/425.

Only God knows, and he ain't talking.

I know a few guys with the new Michelins and they really like them. My only concern is with the looks...

You forgot the GM 6.2L. So there are 3 competitors with more tq, of which 2 have 6 speeds... And considerably more hp.
