So when Ford invited me to the Lone Star State for a January preview of the newest heavy duty models, I leaped at the chance to view their latest creation, while escaping the cold of a New York winter. Don't I wish... When I left JFK airport, it was a balmy 50o F at a time when winter normally plunges temperatures into the 30's. Ironically, when I arrived in south Texas--four hours later than planned--I had to brave the ice storms that blasted San Antonio airport and forced the closing of numerous highways. But despite nature's relentless assaults, the folks at Ford gave us the wheel-time we craved by finding alternative roads with a dogged persistence that gives new meaning to the slogan, "Built Ford Tough!" By early afternoon, the Ford team had me behind the wheel of a Ford F-250 King Ranch with a 6.4 liter Diesel engine. Aside from sitting high up and able to see far down the road, this King Ranch hardly felt like a work truck at all. This beast was as smooth and quiet as a passenger car and a good one at that. What diesel? You just couldn't tell it was a diesel engine unless you were standing outside with the hood up and listening closely. There was almost no diesel clatter. Acceleration was also smooth and quiet. If you stepped down hard on the throttle from a dead stop, you had to be careful not to get whiplash. That is what happens when you tromp on an unloaded pickup with 650 pounds feet of torque at your disposal. This powerplant is one of three engine choices for the Super Duty line. Once under way, I noticed very little wind noise even with the large trailer towing mirrors that were on this vehicle. Those mirrors even had a power telescoping feature, which would allow me to see past a wide trailer had I been towing one. I noticed very little change in the level of wind noise when I tried extending them. They even had a power fold feature for navigating in close
