Looking good for the second generation ford f650 and f750. So the 2nd gen production years is confirmed 2016-2021. The next thing you guys need to do with these medium duty trucks which are f650 and f750, is in 2022 just change the outside of the trucks to ånd give them a 3rd generation so they’re not like 1-2 generations behind. Ok.
I would love one of these for effortlessly towing my camper.
I ordered an f650 in August 2021 and can’t get a time when production will start. I also don’t know which year it will be.
