Talk about a unicorn spec. Bet most of these are working hard in the construction or mining.

Rare! Sitting on a dealer lot waiting for it's first owner

MSRP of $50,000 is absurd for that truck.

Ha!!... that's a ripoff.

My HDPP cost $45,000 out the door, and $8,000 in options was taken off, so I got it for the basic 3.5EB, S.Crew, 4x4, build.

If you really need that then you might need a base F250 instead.

Running Boards - 40 lb
Tailgate Step - 40 lb
FX4 - 28 lb
Navigation - 8 lb
Boxlink- 8 lb
Remote Entry - 4 lb
Mirrors - 17 lb
Tag Bracket - 1 lb
4x4 - 241 lb

Seems like it already lost around 500 lb Payload once you include 301A.

I dont know why anyone would pick any half ton whether its Ford, GM, Ram, Toyota or Nissan for field work, construction work, farm work on a full time basis.
Even the stoutest F150 which is very rare on dealer lots is not as stout as a F250. Even a HDPP doesnt have a full floating rear axle, its not meant for work all the time.
