The SVT pickup is something completely different and built by the divis=
ion of Ford that builds the SVT Mustang Cobra. It will not be available =
for sale or service at all Ford dealers, only select ones that sell SVT p=
roducts. The truck has already been reviewed by a major magazine I saw o=

was but I am going back to find out. My son wanted me to consider one bu=
t I told him that it cost 10k more than I wanted to spend and I've had be=
tter luck with Dodge trucks in the past. If I wanted to spend another 10=
k on a V8 dak I am sure I could easily beat ANY Ford.
