250 or 350?
I am seriously considering trading for a SD, and I am torn, which would be better? I mean, are there any advantages of having an F-350 over an F-250? I just want as heavy duty as I can get, and I don't want to go wrong, but I like the F-250, especially when there isn't much difference between that and the F-350.

The tires on a F-350 2wd are 265 series, while the F-250 2wd only has 235 series tires. It made the difference to a buddy of mine who decided that the cost of upgrading the tires nearly negated the cost between the 2, considering the 350 decal that comes along with it.
There isn't much difference between the two though.

The only differences are the blockes. then there may be some differences in the rear end. But the same springs are used and the same frame. As you know I have the 250. If it is more load you are worried about and you get the F250, install the ride rights (image is 125k):

I installed these series 2330 this past weekend. Adds 5klbs to the rear. I paid $230 at trucksprings.com. They replace the location of the jounce.
