By the time I get to an F250 payload is moot because even the ones with low payload have over 2000lbs.

True but the 6.2 would be an improvement over the 5.0 I currently have... 50 lb-ft more torque at 500 rpm lower

Or you could have 555 lb-ft more torque at 2,500 rpm lower. The additional diesel torque over what you have is more than the 6.2L makes period :lol:

Closer to an hour for me, but I want to do a 24 hour test drive and the trip to Fairfield and back would chew up all the miles they allow.

We used more miles just to get home and back. They didn’t care.

Overnight I seem to have lost any and all enjoyment of shopping and determination to actually deal with sales people (even at CarMax).
