Anyone install 6.5 speakers in a F-250?

I was wondering if anyone has installed 6.5 speakers in the front doors on a F-250 SC. I would perfer to install the 6.5 instead of the 5.25 for better SQ and power handling.

Aren't the factory door speakers in a Ford truck ovals and not rounds? The '96 F-450 I drive at work has 4"x6"es in the doors and I have no idea what in the back.

Probably are 4x6's or 5x8's.

You'll have to cut a little out of the sides to get a 6.5 in. I plan on doing that to my car when I find the time to tear into my doors.

Factory size is 5x8. I don't mind cutting a little extra out but want to make sure there is nothing that will be in the way when I do.

Factory size is 6x8, but depends on the YEAR..

Make baffels its what I had to do for my 6.5s in my expedition...

Wouldn't mounting in the door cause an imaging problem. Please enlighten me i was thinking about doing that for some components.
