Driving home earlier today, I saw an 08 XL Reg Cab being driven off a transporter at the dealership. I stopped to look and there were actually 3 XL REG cabs that had been unloaded. They appear to be fleet vehicles, very plain, no bells and whistles at all and all were painted red. The black grilles and the sealed beam headlights on the XL trim do not do anything for me at all. The aerodynamic jewel effect lights are going to be much better looking. By the way these trucks were all gassers as well. But at least I can attest to the fact that their are some 08 Super Duty's being delivered.
i saw 2 trailer loads of superduty's heading north up i-55 south of joiet IL and yesterday i saw 3 xl work f-450 driving the same direction with temp plates and temp mudflaps on 2x4's going somewhere i thought well there shipping now for sure.
Went to an open house/fishing show at a Ranger dealer in Morris, IL today and they had a new black over tan 08 King Ranch 6.4 in there. Looks much better in person than in pictures, especially the interior. I cant say I like the tailgate step though, seems bulky. I like it though. Too bad the one there cost $50k plus.
