Ford copying Dodge again

Well, I just found out that the 04 superdutys have a fold out steel floor almost exactly like on the Dodge QC's...thats just not right...and another thing is that once they heard cummins will have 600 lbs/tq in January, they are coming out with a 6.4liter with 610lbs/tq...sort of like their overinflated hp/tq numbers now. I just love when they are dynoed they have consistantly less hp/tq than the cummins. Just one reason I will never buy a ferd, if they cant tell the truth on power what else are they lying about? I think it should be against the law to do that, they should have actual dyno numbers with a graph on the truck to prove it (through a 3rd party so it will be more acurate).
OK stepping off of my soap box.
