my 2011 F250 has a recall?

Buschy · 09-19-2010, 12:14 PM

I got a letter in the mail today about a recall on My new 2011 Ford F250.
The recall is that they are going to retune it and add 10hp and 65lbs Tq to it.

thats a pretty good recall pawpaw..

damn thats bad ass. lol

That's pretty epic

Yeah, Chevy announced their Duramax numbers, which were higher than Ford's, so Ford decided to re-tune theirs to take the lead again.

Now if BMW would just do that for the N54 (although I no longer own one), that would be awesome!

Yep, and you got to wonder if that was the plan all along?

Since this came out so quickly, I'm thinking they had the HP/TQ "in the bank" just in case. So yeah, I'm betting it was the plan....

Best recall ever!
