SHOULD be lots of hand rubbing at FoA, this is where the F Series can be ready to pounce,,,,game on!
F series won't be coming any time soon given that they just spent a massive amount of $$$ on Ranger, and F series isn't made in RHD.

I'd love an F series too, I love the 2001-2006 F250s, but they're still fetching $50-$70K for the 7.3L diesel dual cab ones on the second hand market. 5.4 wouldn't be good enough in something that size I reckon. I've driven a 5.4 Fairmont Ghia and its pretty crappy, let alone something which would probably be pushing close to or over 3 tonnes.

New ones are $135K from VDC.

Too expensive.
