Perfection!!!! One question though, why are the power figures for the 3.5TT the same as the 6.2 V8?

Cause it was really early this morning when I wrote this. Good catch. They still just say it "produces more power with greater efficiency than the current 6.2-liter V8, which is rated at 411 horsepower and 434 lb.-ft. of torque." Sorry about that.

No worries man and I figured it was a typo. I look forward to reading about your first drive whenever that happens!

Thanks. Ford has become expert at extracting maximum attention out of each new vehicle, so I'm sure info will continue to trickle out right up until the launch.

Cannot wait to order one, just not looking forward to the whole 5-10k over Msrp,dealer B.S.

Hate having to pick threw dealers. Wish i could just go to my local ford dealer and order one without the BS.

You just have to establish a relationship with one and stick with them.

The dealers around here don't get a lot of allocations.. They could care less about having a relationship with you. If they can get 5k over MSRP on a vehicle before its even ordered they will. I had my local dealer make me walk for $500 over msrp cash deal on my 2013 supercrew. My 14 i purchased in Oklahoma for under msrp and the dealer even trailer delivered it 19 hours free of charge.

Totally agree with you. I'm not looking forward to this and if I can't get one at MSRP...I'll just get an F150 and build it up from there.

I'm looking forward to them hitting dealer lots. It's going to time out perfectly with finishing up school. Also hoping to be able to find one for MSRP. We have a lot of dealers around so it becomes a game of who's not charging to markup. Really makes it a miserable process.

Any info on power/torque numbers, or pricing?
I heard they will be hitting dealerships in the Fall.
