I'm not saying that they will not do any of these things mentioned... But, compare the undercarriage from a 1985 or even a 1995 F350 to a new 2008 Super Duty, there is no comparison really. Everything is bigger and stronger. I think they went a little astray with the engine choices but I don't think you'll need to worry about having a weaker truck in the future. If they don't get the engines figured out maybe just a less reliable one. I do agree it would be a sad day if they dropped the Manual Trannys but you know there are kits to install that floor clicker for high/low beams if you want one back.
Oh and the OBS F250HD's had a Dana 50 IFS not a Dana 44 IFS..
