350 450 diferance
What is the difference between the 2. How much heavier is the 450 than a 350 and are the towing specs the same.

The 450 weighs between 600 and 1000lb more depending on configuration. The 450 has a higher GCWR and Tow rating. The 350 has more payload by about 1000lbs on average. They both have a 14000lb GVWR. So really it's a matter of bigger brakes, wheels tires and heavier frame for the 450. Its artificially limited to 14k GVWR by Ford to keep in a non Medium Duty Truck Class. Its really probably capable of much more if it was working at it's TRUE capacity not the artificial 14k.

You want to compare the F-350 Tow Boss, which has a different front end setup than the standard F-350. The F-450 should be detuned from the factory (less power) and come with larger commercial grade wheels, 19.5". This will make tire choice limited. The F-450 is quite a lot more truck.

I loved the look and the sharp turning radius, but the rpms at highway speed killed it as a daily driver option. Also I don't think they detune it until you go up to the 550 now. |
