7Mary3 Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Rumored to be some significant chassis/suspension upgrades as well. They need it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-150 Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 this is just getting ridiculous. If the automakers are going to keep making the light to medium duty diesels this large and this capable, they fricking need a smaller fleet use one. You know, for those construction companies that have 3/4 ton reg cabs and just want a diesl with 180 hp/400 tq and getting a good 18/25 mpg. Like, oh I don't know, how about the 6 cyl diesels that have since been shelved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping the 4.4L shows up in the F250 in a couple years as I think that would suit my needs perfectly for my next truck when it comes time to "upgrade" to a fifth wheel.
