  1. The article begins, “The 2018 Ford F-350 is a new “beast” in the line of Fords Super Duty Trucks which is slated for release sometime in the nearest future.” apparently, “nearest future” has vastly different meanings for different people. The article is dated February 13, 2017: It is now September 29, 2017 and the release hasn’t come about and I cannot find a published release date. 229 Days isn’t what I consider “the nearest possible future”.
