So only in the Harly/Platinum's for now?That sucks.The XLT sells far more than those combined and does outsell the Lariet limited.I will say it again,if Ford doesnt offer the 6.2L in the XLT's,they will loose allot of fan base with ppl not having much money and still wont when the 6.2L is released for our trucks.So allot of consumers will be looking for either the regular,scab,screw cab trims to save money over the Lariet and Lariet limited.Guess we will have to wait and see.

Numbers on the 5.0? When will these things be out? I was told more 2010's are enroute to the dealers. No? Don't understand all the secrecy.

Ill let you in on a little secret the XLT sucks thats why they dont offer the 6.2 in it. Why would the put a motor like that in a base model truck they will save it for a high end truck like the Raptor, Harley and Platinum.

It doesn't make sense to offer the 6.2 in XLTs. The 6.2 is the premium engine choice so it should be put in the premium models. The base engines go in the base models.

I'm very curious as to why XLT's suck. I wanna see HP and torque numbers on all 4 engines. Aren't the 5.0 and the 6.2 HP and torque numbers really close to the same? Why do we need 4 engine choices between 300 and 400HP

The XLT is the volume seller,and I dont think to many will want to pay the extra coin given the 5.0 should have close # to the 6.2. My 2cents.
