I like the looks of the new Super Duty. Haven't taken the time to check them out yet. My wife hates them.

The interior is pretty much like the F150's. I love the 6.7 diesel with over 900 ft-lbs of torque.

They are exactly the same as the F150 now, they're using the same cab now on both trucks.

So what you're saying is, the new SuperDuty trucks no longer have any legroom.

The F150 has more room than any truck I've ever been in.

The new F150 cab is bigger than the old Superduty cab.

1½" more rear and almost 3" more front legroom in the new 2017 Superduty.

The '15 and up F150 has less legroom than the '14 F150. Just an inch or so, but enough to be a deal breaker for me.

All I know is what I felt two years ago, when I looked at a '14 and '15, side by side. The '14 had more legroom.

OK, I'll go down the local stealership and try it on for size again. If I think it fits, I'll call you to see what you have in stock, give you a credit card number over the phone, then you can drive it out to me. Sound good? :bigears

What's really surprising is that I can reach the pedals with out adjusting the pedals up or having to have the seat all the forward
