« on: May 01, 2023, 09:13:25 AM »
I figured the 406 would get ya to click . .
Anyone else take advantage of the new 406 500hp 1200tq in a Regular Cab Pickup?
which of course is the 6.7 HO
I ordered a new 2023 F250 XL Regular Cab 4x4 base model with the 406 HO
Thinking this very well could be a 13 second factory F250?
The new HO is supposed to be only 10% of engine production for the new 2023 F series trucks
Thought about doing a 4x2 but adding 4x4 only around 2500 more and figured it would be needed for traction
My dealer said they could have truck of my choice built in 6 weeks or less and I could order whatever I wanted as long as it was Lariat or under trim.
I ordered with Lightest possible 4x4 and did narrowest tire and tallest gear 3.31 Locking of course.
Did not notice until I got the window sticker it will have manual hubs
Ordered April 11, 2023 it had VIN April 13th and sent to plant in production on April 20th. Build day of April 29th which was Saturday.
Have not verified it was actually built but the KY truck plant has been spot on.
Should be a great Hot ROD that will tow 20,000 bumper pull and 22,700 on gooseneck 5th wheel which I also ordered along with Camper Special Package.
Should be a fun truck and after selling the F100R this would be great addition.
By early reports 25 MPG could be possible with this combo. Less the 131 lb 12,000 lb factory ordered winch Curb weight expected to be 7011 lbs.
