Yes, sometimes the new stuff comes out before the dealers know about them. When the TowBoss option was announced in late 2004, for the 2005 Ford PSD dually's, the dealers didn't know what I was talking about either. I was ordering anyway, so I did get it.

And yes, towboss does not change GVWR, but does (in '05 and '06) add 2500lbs to the Gross combined, up to 26,000lbs, and added 2500lbs to the max tow weight, up to 19,200lbs (std. cab), with exact max tow depending upon truck configuration/weight.
