For those who are interested:

http://www.trucktrend.com/news/1509-...ty-first-look/

Fully boxed frame (24x stiffer than the old model)
First complete redesign since 1999
Power and torque upgrades for the 6.7 diesel (likely over 1000 lb-ft / 1355 Nm)
Increased payload and towing capabilities

I want one!

Too small for my needs, I’d be worried one day I may need to move an Aircraft Carrier and I’m not 100% sure if this would do the job.

What I wouldn't give! I'm off to the states in Febuary, I want to hire an F anything to drive through Yosemite!

Curious to see no Ecoboost option yet. I wonder if it would be too hard of a sell, or maybe an appropriate engine spec isn't ready yet?

Diesel is exclusively Ford Powerstroke now, but theres also 6.2 V8 and 6.8 V10 option.

There's an all-new 3.5 V6 EcoBoost in the pipeline for the 2017 F150. 450HP and a CGI block. I wonder if that will appear on the 2018 Super Duty?

[FPV GTHO]

Pity they can't do a small Ecoboost V8

Wow, cant believe that they are only medium duty!

looks a w e s o m e, caravaning would take on a whole new feel .

[chevypower]

This isn't official from Ford, but this article suggests the 6.7 diesel will be boosted to almost 500 HP and over 1,000 lb-ft. So in metric, almost 370 kW and over 1,355 Nm. Should be able to pull a jet ski with that.

I think there is an option for a spare Fiesta in the back for when you get a flat tyre.

[LyleXR8]

There currently 320kw and 1100nm aren't they??

[Crazy Dazz]

Nah, people don't want big cars any more

a mate at work has one, takes up 4 parks actually!!! I don't know how an ecoboost would go in one with the tare weight and towing capacity youd still need a pretty big boosted donk to move it around

The 2.7 and 3.5 do really well in the F150. Even the 2.7 spins the back wheels on a full-throttle start. They would move the F250 and F350 around just fine, but likely not suited to pulling weight beyond what an F150 can handle, so probably no point.

Really close! Currently 328 kW / 1,165 Nm. Remember when we all thought 220Kw from an LS1 was really awesome?

Any chance of getting it in a Ranger or ....Transit, lol?

The US version of the Transit has the current 3.5 EcoBoost but it's detuned to 230 KW / 540 Nm. It's fun to drive! Accurate a like a rocket and that torque is instant. Don't know if it will get the new engine. I wouldn't be surprised to see the 2.7 EcoBoost make it to the Ranger when it becomes available in the US.

[chevypower]

Well the numbers are out on the 2017 diesel. It has 330 kW / 1,253 Nm at 1,800-2,000rpm.
Here is the F450 pulling over 13,600 kg. This is going up a 6% grade as fast as it can at 11,000 ft above sea level (which reduces power output). It is able to maintain at least 65km/h the whole way.

work has ordered a 2017 f350 power stroke. Should push snow easily enough.
