2010 F150 Diesel Spotted!
Jalopnik has brought us some great photos of the 2010 (or is it 2009.5?) 4.4L V8 diesel powered F-150. Ford hasn’t released power ratings, but speculation is that the truck could have up to 350 hp and 450 lb-ft torque.
There’s no doubt the diesel powerplant will provide more power and mileage than a gasser model. To read the full article and see the other photos, go to Jalopnik.

I don’t understand why Ford acts like this is something new. I lived over seas and had a 4 cylinder turbo diesel in a full time four wheel drive. It was a 7 passenger suv that I averaged 36 mpg every day. It had lots of power and finally died after 300k miles. Then I only took the turbo off of it and it drove fine. Lacked the power it had but was good. I think all the auto makers here think we are dumb, why do they sell vehicles overseas that get great gas mileage but not to us for a good price. I have a Ford F-150 and have had a few and I Love my Fords. They could have been selling us a good full size truck that got great gas milage and lasted forever all this time. Look at the old F250 with the Old Diesel they put in the early 90 and 80’s trucks. Those Ford trucks lasted forever.

Its about time Ford came out with an F-150 diesel!!! I have been waiting on someone to make one with a small V8 but enough power to get the job done!!!

I hope the engineers at Ford make sure the truck will be allowed to be fueled with 100% Biodiesel. I love my 2004 Lariat 4X4, but would LOVE to be able to commute 60 miles a day in my 2009.5 Ford F150 BIODIESEL powered truck.
COME’ON FORD ENGINEERS GIVE US WHAT WE NEED TO AFFORD TO RUN / DRIVE OUR FORD TRUCK INTO THE FUTURE!! Screw the gas companies!!
