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

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!

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.

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]

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!

That's O.K. Beauty IS in the eye of the beholder, right? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif[/img]

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!
