I've always liked the looks and interiors of Fords too this new one though is ehhh... but they sure do put nice aluminum wheels on the 08 F450's. They look just like big truck Alcoa wheels. Dodge should do that with the CC3500, 4500, 5500 models but how much you want to bet they only offer the same old plain looking steel wheels on the 08s..

What model did are you guys looking at as far as interior?
The one I was in was hands down more appealing and functional than the Dodge. Leather was very nice, vents, gauges, seats and mirrors were all good. The dodge interior looked cheap to me and the ride was smoother in the Ford 4x4, but not a big concern to me however I get to hear it from the g/f so that's an ear full.
I agree the new 6.4L is less of an engine thant he 6.7L Cummins. Definetly felt the difference when driving it down the road. Along with the new quietness of the Cummins, the Powerstroke was loud and seemed to have less power.
Now back to my noisy and paid for 2nd gen. Still love the truck and my g/f finally drove a standard diesel. Whiplash and all not to bad for first time diesel truck driver.
