What are the downgrades for? Better gas mileage?
- ImprovedSilence 13y agoThat would be my guess. They are trying to hit the CAFE requirements. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAFE http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAFE]
- protomyth 13y agoEarly reports were from the new generation engine's specs[1] and some talked about an aluminum unibody. It might be some misinformation in the end. Fuel economy is a new Ford goal. If they also do the diesel for folks who need the higher tow weights or assume they will start buying the F-250 / F-350, then it might be a very good deal for the professional. 1) it also is rumored to have stuff like stop/start technology that shuts off the engine while idling in traffic except when hauling a load.
