Thanks ! I just bought a new Ford. Ford still has more torque, and the cab is better looking with the massive chrome grill.

If you guys ever have the opportunity, have your right seat passenger sit in the Chevrolet Class C (right seat) and ask the person what they thought about the foot well. You will be amazed at the responses you will get.

That was a draw back from buying a used Ford class C. The passenger foot room. The New 2010 & 2011 have more foot room. The seat is back and the doghouse is smaller. Still not great but better. I just like the V-10 and the tow haul trans.

I prefer Chevy but I can learn to like a Ford I guess being that that is what our newRV is based on, I hear good things about the newer V10 engines.

I know I have mentioned this before, I had an 08, 2500 HD Silverado with the 6.0 engine, it was rated at 353 HP, and I think also a higher torque rateing than is in this Class C chassis, I wonder why?

This does not suprise me although one might think that the GM V-8 doesn't change size very much. Ford does the same thing in their Class C, the 30 valve is not available and its de-rated.
