Is Mr. Snyder doing a dog/pony show for the nextgen of F-53 or is he smart enough to answer questions regarding existing models? I for one would sure like to pin down some Ford tech types from the F-53 shop for about 30 minutes of interrogation.

I've known Dan for a fairly long time. I have not known him to put on dog and pony shows at the RVIA Exposition in Louisville nor would I expect him to start in Urbanna. Dan knows his product very well and he will be able to answer any questions.

Are you coming to the National Rally? I will personally introduce you to him.

What question are you concerned about in regard to a NextGen F53? I have not seen a Nextgen at the latest Industry show and I did report on what I saw there in my blog. RV Towing with 2011 Diesel Pickup Trucks

Not sure if I could make it, I really would like to but my two main questions may get answer via other means anyways. I think it's great if Ford sends someone to a rally that can answer questions. We are a large DIY community so we can use support.

Nextgen - My slang for next generation, next model, next years model, etc. etc.

I've seen some movement toward alternative fuels however in regard to the baseline F53 chassis, I do not expect that it will change very much over the next model year. It's the only show in town at the moment and Ford is not going to change the chassis very much if at all.

You're welcome. Just so you know, Ford has not supported other events like this and I appreciate that we could get Dan to come to Urbanna.

The audience that we provide here for this effort I expect is being recognized and I don't mind letting everyone know about it.
