What happened to the F350?

I just surfed the Ford website and for 2007 I see no F350's. For 2008 the F350 is all dual rear wheel.

Is there a 2007 F350?

I can not say for Ford but VW is not making any 2007 diesels. They are 2006 to 2008 because of the new diesel fuel. Maybe Ford is doing the same thing. I am sure someone in the know will be along soon.
Cheers,

I was pricing 250's & 350's online yesterday. They put the 350's under the commercial/other truck icon at the bottom of the window. They still have all of the models and options listed.

Illapah,

The 350 never showed up on the regular website as an option for 2006 or 2007. As ggranch said, you have to jump into the commercial site. Kind of ackward, but it's there.

illapah, it was a very short year for the 07's, they are now building the 08's, but they are on the web site and have not moved. I have an 08 on order.

The new 08 F-350 with the 6.4 Diesel can be ordered at you local Ford dealer now..however you may not know what the pricing is.. They are expected to hit the dealers sometime in Feb and should be on the Ford web site by mid Jan...maybe.. UPDATE..My Ford Dealer in Ohio E mailed me today and said they do not yet have the pricing on the 08 F-350 so I have no clue as to what is going on...

Hello:

2007 is indeed a "short" model year.

I had heard that the 2008's will price $2,000 to 3,000 higher than the 2007 and will have the new diesel engine.

We took delivery on our custom ordered 2007 F-350 Diesel DRW on 12/4. This vehicle was ordered from the dealer on 9/28.

To do our shopping -- I went to the Ford Truck website and priced the vehicle with the options "we wanted" and then sent the specs (by fax) to 10 area dealers and asked them to quote me their best price.

Interesting Range of Results I got -- I heard from 7 of the dealers. 3 would not quote me, because of the "short" model year.

Of the 4 quotes I got back -- there was a range of $1800.00 between lowest & highest.

The MSRP came back at $37,500 and the best quote was for $32,900.

We have been very happy with the truck -- To date, we have only used the truck for local commuting and we are getting 15.3 mpg --

The real test of the truck will come in April when we will be taking our new 2007 Monatna 2955RL out of "winter storage". Although that may happen sooner if Winter never arrives in New England.

We have chosen our 1st outing at Normandy Farms in Foxboro, MA about 60 miles from home.

Man-o-Man! I am as anxious as the next guy, but there is no way I would buy something that has not even been tested on the street by regular folks like us. I would be afraid the price would be just too high. My last King Rnach listed for over $50K and an the way it is going, 08's will crowd $60K.

An article in todays local newspaper (Kansas City Star) says that Ford just released pricing on the '08 Super Duty and they are actually cheaper than the '07!!!!! Here is a quote from the paper. "The base sticker prices for the 2008 F-250 Super Duty range from $23,305 for a reglar cab XL 4x2 model to $38,425 for a top of the line F-250 Crew Cab Lariat 4x4. The same configuration for the 2007 model year were priced at $23,455 and $38,670." Doesn't say anything about the cost of the diesel engine. Not a lot of cost reduction but at least it's not an increase.
