'15 F-450 Pickup

[JESSE1]

Just came in this morning. I ordered it on May 6, built July 17. Ford didn't start production on the '15 F-450 pickups until the first week in July so I knew I'd have a long wait. These trucks are equipped with a Dana 111S rear axle and have the wide track front axle standard. 40,000# GVWR.

Nice looking truck, I'd say you got it pretty quick, I would have guessed you would have waited longer. That rear end looks huge. It looks like the gears install from the front instead of the rear.

It would be interesting to know if it goes any faster than the 08-10 F-450.

Now that's a true Texas limousine! Nice truck, good luck with it.

One dealer in Michigan said the maximum speed was 90 mph. My '08's max was 81 mph. I don't know if these tires are a higher speed rating than the earlier trucks had but they are still Continental HSR like my '08 had.

The 6.7 diesel has an amazing amount of power, even more than my '12 had. This engine is rated at 440 hp and 86o lb/ft torque. Mash on it hard and the rear tires try to break loose even in third gear. The traction control kicks in when it senses a slip. I was very satisfied with the ride, it's much smoother than my '08 was, about like a one ton or heavy 3/4 ton truck.

Very slick! I like that color combination, haven't seen that before. Is this the all new Super Duty I keep hearing about?

 

[groundcover]

Wow, nice ride ! And Ford is pretty near giving them away ! Gave them almost as much as my first house cost for my '14 F350 and it's a gas job !

 

[handirifle]

I can't tell if it's a Powerstroke or not. Gas or diesel?

If diesel, does it have the 2nd gen 440HP Powerstroke?

 

[Btown]

Exhaust pipe gives it away. It's a diesel. Also the torque number. No stock gas engines with that high torque number.

Very nice truck,,,,,how much?

No, this is not the new Superduty, they're supposed to come out late next year or early '16 as a '17 model. This truck has the second generation 6.7 diesel and I felt that this will be the best of this series of truck before they do a model changeover.

F-450 pickups only come as a diesel 4x4 crewcab, 4.30 is the only axle ration offered. They all come with 19.5" Alcoa wheels and commercial grade tires. A fully loaded F-450 with moonroof and every possible option will list over $76,000. No one pays list price. I trade about every 4-5 years so I've been able to trade for a reasonable difference. I traded early this time so I could get one before they made the model changeover.
