i just wanted to share with you all that we got our first 2011 superduty in with 6.2L, its a plain white fleet truck, supercrew with 8ft box 4x4 and wholly monkey ***** does it get up and move that truck. the power is amazing, getting it up to a 140kmh took nothing, and would break the wheels free from a stand still, this engine in a F150 would be just plain scary.

so there you go discuss and speculate

 

Not scary! Absolutely fantastic is more like it! Is that the standard engine on the 2011 SuperDuty, or is the 5.4L still available?

Bring it to F-150 now, Ford!

I believe the 6.2 is the standard motor in the new Superduty.

 

should be the standard motor in the f150s...

 

sounds really cool

 

This thread is worthless without pictures, lol

 

Last time I looked, you couldn't even build and price a 2011 SD yet. Yet now there's one on a lot? Is Ford really that far behind in the internet learning curve?

 

Then you must not have tried in the last week or two. Jesus they can get expensive though. A supercrew long-bed diesel F-350 Lariat with nav is pushing nearly $60,000.

 

You definitely can! I've built two already, one was about 2 weeks ago and another one today... I was bored and like to dream...

 

Which rear end does it have? The one pickuptruck.com drove a while back had the flatter gears and left then not as impressed as they hoped for. But gearing can change that perception.

I'd imagine yours had 4.10's based on your impresion.

 

haha, true, true - my bad. It's been a couple weeks or so. Not like I want a SD, but fun to check out all-new ford trucks to see what might be coming for the 150 down the road.

 

The 2011 f 150 will not be released until Oct. Besides that, one mite be smart giving a new engine change a year under it's belt before buying one. Look how long it took Ford to get the 5.4l decent.

 

You can do a build of the Raptor on the Ford site with a 6.2.

 

With the six-speed, the same impression could come from the standard 3.73. I believe the 4.10 is optional, a 3.73 e-locker, and a 4.30.

I read an artical that said the 6.2L in the Superduty was nothing as good as the late V-10. I was discouraged as I really would like to go with a new Superduty again sometime, but the diesel is just plain too expensive. Unless the mileage comes up on the diesels to the low to mid 20's, I'll probably stay gas. I am looking forward to the 6.2L reviews. I assume the Raptor (6.2L)wont be that tremendously different than what we could expect in an F-150... probably a better comparison than the heavy Superduty.
