Ahhhh I guess I could have just googled that.. ?

Low Cab Forward, I was really confused what that even meant and I knew it wasn't just three random letters.

These have me interested just because I've never looked them up..

The largest 6500XD has a 5.2L turbo diesel, 215hp/520lb-ft., standard and it's available on most other models as well. Their ole reliable 6.0L rated at 297hp/372lb-ft. Then they have an inline-four 3.0L diesel made by Isuzu rated at 150hp/282lb-ft. 

It's crazy how different a real work truck engine is made compared to our "street" engines.

Strong quarter, moral of the story seems to be that trucks sell and cars don’t.  As is the case every where.
