Besides, I don't want to be the guy that you all are throwing whipped cream pies at.
I asked earlier but no one commented, I'd like to put a picture of my truck up in my sig but my account says that I can't attach things. What's going on with that?
Im not sure but I believe it is because they limit what you can do till you have over a hundred post. I would suggest PM'ing a moderator about it, but I actually think PM's are one of those items disabled until you have a hundred post. Again thanks for the info

add the photo to your gallery, put the img link into your signature in your settings, then each time you post, check the box that says "show my signature" and it should work.

It won't fit in the current chassis. The '09 will be a 6 speed.

Wont fit the current chassis? All they would have to at most is change the cross member. The expedition is still running the same chassis it had before with a 4spd. They just dont want to spoil the release of the new body style truck by releasing any "earth shaking" updates to the current body style trucks.

According to what I've heard, it is too wide to fit, so just changing a cross member wouldn't fix it. New crash tests, certification, etc.

The Expy was also just updated for 2007, when it received the 6 speed...I'm sure they updated the chassis some. I think the tranny going in the F150 different then the current Expy 6 speed also.
