I love my 2011 F-350 CC DRW 6.7L.. Getting about one mile per gallon better than my previous 6.0 PSD and, considering this engine has 30% more power/torque, I'm happy as can be..

I just hauled my 5er to/from the western edge of SD and I hardly noticed it behind me.. I ordered it with the factory installed Reese hitch and gooseneck ball. That Reese is a BRUTE; rated for 25K.

I hear ya re: sticker shock.. During an oil change last Thursday, I walked around the lot checking out trucks.. One there had an MSRP of over $64,000!!! Holy gold nuggets, Batman... FWIW, they sell trucks over cars by about 3 to 1...
