"gasoline 6.2-liter V-8 that makes 385 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque."
The 7.3L makes 430HP and 475lb. ft. of torque.
The 7.3 is a $1700 option over the 6.2. I would opt for it. As for "first year offering", who cares really? Do you wait until 2nd year? 5th year? Ever? Have there been duds offered by all manufacturers? Yes. You don't normally see that with a normal run of the mill big block gas engine. The 7.3 is a 445c.i. V8 - not new territory for any of the big 3.
Maybe the OP should justify buying the King Ranch, XLT, Platinum etc. etc. vs the XL, etc. etc. Hope he doesn't have to explain getting cloth instead of leather.
Sorry OP. I was quoted so responded but it was also directed to you.
