Check out this beauty!

The truck, not my daughter (even though she IS a beauty!)

I bought a $10 raffle ticket to try to win it!

Re: Check out this beauty!

Wasn't that the one they had at the official unveiling of the new truck at the TX State Fair? Nice!

Re: Check out this beauty!

I was sure I had seen Mark Fields standing next to this very truck, but where? Fortunately "the google" comes to the rescue: it was at the big ceremony hailing the start of production at KTP!

Re: Check out this beauty!

The picture in your link says that truck is an F450. The one in Louisville was an F350. The paint job looks the same though.

Re: Check out this beauty!

Well they may have painted any number of trucks that way, but I think the F450 caption is an error.

Here is a closer view of the same situation:

And here is one where you can see in the background that is it SRW:

The F450 pickup is DRW by definition, right?

Re: Check out this beauty!

You're right! The one in your pics can't be an F450!

Could be the EXACT same truck I saw. She was a REAL beauty! I was slobbering all over it until my wife grabbed my arm and pulled me away! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

Re: Check out this beauty!

It's funny, until I found that background shot, I always imagined it as a blue truck, when obviously it's a white truck. I still think it looks great, but I think I like the one in my imagination better, ha!

For some reason the infilled SUPER DUTY letters on the grille look like they belong on that truck... where I think the purely embossed ones look sort of goofy on the production trucks. My prediction: letter-painting will be the 2008 version of badge-acetoning!

Re: Check out this beauty!

I don't agree with your assessment that that truck is "a beauty."

Sorry.

Re: Check out this beauty!

I wonder who won this truck. I saw it on I65 just south of Indy headed north on 9-28.

She was sure shined up!
