They Waited 17 MONTHS For Their F-550 Black Edition!

Due to Ford chassis delays, our clients had an extended wait period to receive their new Black Edition. What started as a 2022 F-550 was pushed to a 2023 and the results were "worth the wait", as Doug and Cindy excitedly mentioned. Check out the debut of their new 2023 Stone Gray F-550 Black Edition.

@@კახაგურული-რ6ტ😂 lq8ne, in English slang “Bad” or “Bad A$$” means That the Truck is “Cool” more than Beautiful. Maybe “Manly Beautiful “, would be a better way of explaining it. Thank you for defending EOG’s honor. So much of what we say in America using the English language or it’s “Slang” can be offensive to other cultures around the world. For example sometime when my Arabic friends write to me, it’s can be hard for me to understand. Your language and the way you write and speak is so beautiful, & poetic. The English language, not so much. And using English Slang even less, & can be offensive. Again, thank you for defending these amazing automotive artists, and their work. And bringing a little clarity to this old man.

I drove 2020 F350 DRW 6.7 for 60k miles and was waiting for 2023 F450 Limited for 11 months. With no end in sight, I jumped the ship and purchased 2023 Ram 3500 Limited DRW HO 6.7 , Aisin Trans, 4.1 Gear with black out package. I had full body Suntek PPF and Ceramic coating plus nano ceramic tint for interior including the windshield. I am overly surprised how good is Ram 3500 Limited. It has better interior, smoother with auto leveling kit, TPMS, Apple like keypad. Gas mileage is par with F450 Limited. Around 15.5 driving empty. Tire will be cheaper on Ram 3500 than F450 Limited. It is not a fast truck, but fast enough . I can drive few hours and my back doesn't hurt and leg is not cramping up. I do not tow, but do haul some weight and this is my daily vehicle. I will take the Ram over Ford now but do miss 10 speed on gas mileage. I am 5'10" tall and it is very hard to see the front. On Ram, I usually have to wait before taking a chance on a tight spot. Now let's talk about this beautiful F550.. How does one do the maintenance work on this truck away from Denver CO? Is there a maintenance do list? What is the cost of F500 like on this KZbin?

[@elevationoffgrid]

We retain all factory warranties so the truck can be serviced by Ford or anyone else. The only maintenance item on our builds outside of the standard routine maintenance is a desiccant filter on the power control module for the LiquidSpring suspension. Every couple of years the filter just needs to be unscrewed and replaced as it collects moisture; very cheap part.

[@Hard_7_Iron]

Gorgeous truck….well done!
