My V10 F250 pulls well.
But it gets HORRIBLE mileage.

I would agree.
While my V10 works, I would PREFER the diesel.
get the 6.7 and... well once you pull with it you will think "gas is for sleds"
YA.
I would like to go back to diesel.

So we are more than a full year away from seeing the first production F250....

Most are suggesting we will see 1,000ft/lbs for the first time.
its going to be a TOW MONSTER
How much weight did they drop?
On an F-150 to GM 1500 the Ford with all their fancy aluminum is a whopping 86 lbs lighter.

2017s begin delivery in one year
They say it dropped the same as the 150.
About 700 pounds
But that they took half of the weight savings and rolled it back into the truck in additional strengthening.
I seen 300 lbs as the dropped weight from last years Super Duty after the aluminum weight loss and added weight of some of the new upgrades.

Correct.
Ford is claiming they passed along about 50% of the savings, and reinvested the other 50% in structural upgrades to the undercarriage.
Yep and also the added weight also came in upgrades like the larger axles, brakes and hitches.
Just think of the sled trailer you could build now!! I'm thinking you need a custom 40' one made!

Thanks LOADS pal.
I was thinking about DOWNSIZING the trailer this year so it would be EASIER to chase after the snow storms
I honestly don't care for the look of the front end... looks too much like a Chevy with the 2 horizontal bars so close together giving it the 'grill on top of a grill' look. I like the idea of added cab space from the F150, but it doesn't appear to have the same big truck 'presence' that I feel when I look at my Super Duty. It 'looks' like a smaller truck to me... I guess we'll see when they start hitting the streets. I do also like the upgrades to the undercarriage... though my '02 works excellent for my uses, the investment there was due.

The interior shots make it look virtually like the 150. The center arm rest is about the same width as well. The previous Super Duty arm rest was super wide and I don't see that now.
For ease and cost of manufacturing it does make sense to use one cab for the product lines like the other 2 Domestic trucks do instead of a large (F150) and Super Large (previous Super Duty).
