Wonder why they didn't give the numbers for the F350 dually? The numbers were for the F450 dually, yet they compared it to a 3500. A lot of us tow our fivers with the F350 dually.

If it's like previous years the 450 is still in the same class as a 350...and they will prob do a "max tow" or "tow boss" package essentially making a 350 a rebadged 450...but.. who knows

What class are you? They sent me class 9 by mistake. I made them reissue a new one.

I was sort of wondering the same thing. Around here there are a ton of F-350s. But you hardly see an F-450. I think some insurance companies classify a 450 or larger as "commercial".

Either way, nice truck.

Plus in Texas I would have to pay for my truck registration because disabled vet plates are only good up to one ton.

The numbers for the 2017 super cab aren't too far apart as they have been since 2013. Both the F350 and the F450 with the 6.7L diesel are 15,000lbs(Some guides say 14,000) for the DRW 4x2 or 4X4, and 22,800, 22,400 5th wheel hookup 4x2, 4x4 respectively. 2017 bumper pull are 16,200 for 4x2 and 15,900 4x4 and 24,200 4x2 and 23,800 4x4 for 5th wheel connections. That is only 900 lbs diff on bumper pull 4x4, and 1400 lbs diff on 5th wheel 4x4.

You've got it easy . . .

The first year for my 2015 Chevy 2500HD the license and registration fee was $950 . . .

Second year (last year) was $750 . . .

Haven't gotten the notice in the mail for this year yet, but I'm guessing that it will be $550 if the trend continues.

For SRW. Uniroyal 225/70R19.5 G @ 110PSI gives 7940 lbs on an axle or 3970 ea. That should cover it. Rims available for F350's.
