Pretty good preliminary info. No HP/Torque numbers yet that I saw. An interesting thing I did notice though was if you click on Buzz and Events, then Enthusiast Sites, The Diesel Stop came up on top and in the biggest window.

Reason: Added more info for the enthusiast sites links
Anybody else not liking the badging on the sides of the truck? I know they are not a huge deal, but damn, talk about ugly, girly and non-tough looking.
The lower badge even has a green B20 in it?! ***!?!?!?
The upper badge looks like something that you would find on a rice burner. ***?!?!
I do like the Texas sized Blue Oval on the front grill though. THAT looks tough!
I wonder if it is too late to change those......Please chime in if you don't like them as well.

Yeah, I saw a side view just last night and that was the first thing I noticed. It actually detracts from the rest of the truck.

So far I like everything done with the exception of removing the Dana 110 the 19.5s on the F450 pickup. The other gripe is the dually quarter fenders look like a late 80s Dodge quarter fender. Everything else rocks. Hopefully the 6.7 will be reliable as the engineers have promised me. I really like the e-locker and the 6R140 transmission.

Very impressive. I love the new look. Can't wait to hear real-world reports on mileage, as I really hope the improvements they claim pan out. My last Powerstroke (6.0) left much to be desired with fuel mileage, and I haven't heard many people that are happy with the consumption habits of the 6.4.
