That is about 330lbs less than my 16, but you have a lot more options than I do. Ford was dead serious when they said truck would not weigh much if any less than the steel body trucks. The extra steel in the frame, larger cab, and much higher bed walls etc add all the weight back in.

I will have some American forces and a leveling kit on it next week. I need to buy a goose neck two car hauler before I can determine how high I can lift it and still hook up to the goose neck safely.

awesome truck. I've putted around in a couple 17 F450s now and man, they ride as well as my F150. but I've gotta say, I really wish Ford would make the Alcoas standard on all the higher trim duallies. it sucks that the 350 XLT and the Platinum come with the same 17s. with that said, can't wait to see what it looks like with Forces on it.
