The brawny Blue Oval workhorse will get rhinoplasty for 2011, and like the current models, its new styling takes inspiration from a concept vehicle. <br /><br />Ford designers have taken the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2006/01/08/ford-super-chief-sips-three-fuels/">SuperChief</a> concept from 2006 as their muse, as it lends its likeness for the Super Duty's grille treatment. The cooling needs of an actual working truck, however, require larger spacing between the grille's chrome bars. There are two bars clearly visible behind the camo, and a third is likely just below the mesh. <br /> <br /> Pickuptrucks.com thinks the '11 Super Duty will be powered by the new <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/10/08/spy-shots-ford-super-dutys-new-6-7l-scorpion-diesel/">Scorpion</a> diesel V8 or the upcoming <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/02/17/6-2l-boss-v8-found-under-hood-of-2010-ford-f-150-harley-davidson/">Boss 6.2 liter V8</a>, rather than the current gasoline V10. Manual transmissions are also on the way out. Even with grim forecasts, it would be suicide for Ford to dally on truck development. Besides, what are all those shovel-ready stimulus projects going to need? Trucks, so the new Super Duty might be very well timed, indeed. <br /> <br /> [Source <a href="http://news.pickuptrucks.com/2009/02/spied-2011-ford-super-duty.html">Pickuptrucks.c om</a>]<br /><p style="padding:5px;backgr ound:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/02/19/spy-shots-2011-ford-f-250-super-duty/">Spy Shots: 2011 Ford F-250 Super Duty</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblo g</a> on Thu, 19 Feb 2009 16:31:00 EST.
