Ford shows King Ranch Super Duty, F-450 upgrades For most Texans, the state fair means rides, guilt-free junk food and livestock judging. For archrivals Ford and Chevrolet, it's a chance to duke it out over their latest pickups in the heart of truck country. ly/1fpFHpZ For most, a state fair means death-defying rides, loads of guilt-free junk food and plenty of smelly, prize-winning livestock. But when it comes to the Texas State Fair in Dallas, it also means pickups -- the place where the makers of full-size pickups go to duke it out deep in the heart of truck country. And it renews the biggest rivalry in Motown -- Ford vs. Chevy. The F-450's improved engine has a larger turbocharger that Ford says will improve airflow and engine braking, and produce more power than the current 400 horsepower and 800 pound-feet of torque. This facilitated the larger turbocharger, increasing airflow and creating more power," said David Ives, a Power Stroke technical specialist. Source: www.usatoday.com
