Looks mean but that thin is gonna weigh a ton. Well actually about 3 tons with the F-350 frame. We'll see how my lil 6 banger holds up to those now. Dammit Chevy I need some help here, it's getting really hard to hold these trucks off these days

I think that thing is fugly! I've never liked the looks of the Pooper-Duty. I think its a rip off of Dodge's initial 94' offering and both of them look like little wannabe semi's.
I think those wheels need to go too. And with the recent tsunami disaster I think that name is totally tasteless! Plus its a rip off of the sy-ty nameplate.
I would like to watch all the timing that's going to be pulled out of that thing when you actually go to use it as an F-350. There's no way that thing has the standard tow rating like they make it sound. The truck is waaay too heavy to hang with the srt-10. I'd rather have a Diesel F-350 and do the usual mods to it and run circles around it.
The most interesting thing about it is the fact that engine will be in the next L. Now that will be cool.

I thought I heard the V-10, 6.8L Triton was a dog? I figured they would of used the DOHC 5.4l.
