xrated said:If you will post the exact model/year of the 5ver that you bought, that would be a huge help in making suggestions for what TV to get. As you may or may not know, there are lots of different sizes and weights for trailers, and without that information, it is pretty much impossible for anyone to help you.

If you get a SRW vehicle, get a 1-ton truck. They cost the same as a 3/4 ton. All things being equal, Diesel will be better.
If you want a dual wheel truck, get a F450 class truck. And it should be diesel.

Must be busy shopping for that truck I reckon...?.edjunior said:Hmmm, looks like we lost stufoley. Hope we didn't scare him off this quick. You still there??
The 2017+ Ford F450 only has a 4.30 axle ratio and it was an option before that I believe.steveblonde said:my 350 has a 500lbs higher payload than a similar equiped 450 - yes you read right - reason being the 450 has a 4.10 rear(standard with no option) and the 350 comes as 3.73 or 3.55 the 3.55 has the higher payload
