08 SuperDuty at Greenville SC Auto Show


Thy had one, locked up inside some aisle straps so you couldn't get close.

Picutes are here

http://www.f150online.com/galleries/...ew.cfm?num=463

Thoughts:

It has SuperDuty embossed on it at least three or four times. Am I really likely to forget what I'm driving?

They still haven't run the console up under the dash - Chevy gets the points here. Overall I think for took the brutish approach on styling while Chevey took the high road/elegance approach.

No sticker on the window so I could not tell how it was equipped. It was a diesel automatic 4WD and it has clearance lights, NAV radio, tow command and switches.

Re: 08 SuperDuty at Greenville SC Auto Show

yep, saw it last night and thought it looked real sharp. i liked the color and thought the front end looked nice and mean. they had it roped off so it was hard to see much detail inside. i wish they'da popped the hood. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

i thought the tail gate step was real nice and easy to use. the cargo coral thingy didn't stow against the sides as tight as i thought they would have.

overall, though, sharp truck!! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif[/img]

You got closer that I did at the Orlando Show. Here they had one up on the turn table. You could not get close to it and you could not see inside because it was 3' off the ground. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Re: 08 SuperDuty at Greenville SC Auto Show

one other item to note.

Seems to be very little cost effective upgrade opportunity for the exh at least. Its all 4" tube and the muffler is 25% the size of the old one - likely means most of the pressure drop is in the filter and cat.
