kscarbel2 Posted February 5, 2019 Author Share Posted February 5, 2019 Note Ford Truck's proprietary planetary hub reduction drive axles. With the introduction of Ford's proprietary AMT transmission in 2020, the truckmaker will have a vertically integrated drivetrain.

Maxidyne Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Kind of a shame to spend the billions to develop and tool up your own powertrain and then not offer it in the North American market...

Agree - I can't believe they are not doing something with this-in particular the 9L motor. How difficult to certify that for US. Isn't Euro 6 almost the same. Then again I have been told big news coming at the March Work Truck Show. then again, maybe we heard it all today with the 7.3 V-8 announcement. That motor should make the 650 and 750's big sellers. think of the applications that need the power and gvw rating but don't have the annual mileage to justify the diesel premium. Homerun if they price it right-and it is not a complete pig on fuel.
