So I have seen a couple tremors IRL, drove a F 250 7.3 today. The ones I have seen all had 2879 payload I believe.Lariat packages, no moon roofs, . Has anybody seen a Tremor with a higher payload? Payload on the Tremor 350?
So the 7.3? Didnt' feel much more than my current F150 2016 V8. Rumble a bit lower, though I respect future owners too much so I was a bit hesitant to step on it. Not much peppier first impression than my current, but I wasn't towing either. Test drives are almost useless really.without towing. About 175 miles on this truck, lie o meter 8.6
Supposedly the suspension on the tremors are the same. The 250 is just a down graded sticker for registration reasons. At least that’s what’s been posted in other threads.

My Platinum Tremor 350 is 34xx (need to look at the exact number)...which is 100 more than my 17 Platinum 350.
I wonder if the reduced conventional tow rating is do to the tires. The rear springs and axle are the same as a standard 350, and the slight lift and progressive rate front springs shouldn't effect it that much.

IMHO, it has the be based on the "stability rating" of the Tremor because the load rating of the Tires appear to have more than enough rating to carry the "Combined Weight of occupants and Cargo" (e.g., it's not a tongue loading issue). See the tire ratings below - over 8000#. So it has to be the stability of the truck when it is lifted and Ford is ensuring safety based on a truck that sits higher.

Just throwing that out there. Well, at least with the 250 Tremor, you still have a higher payload and tow rating than the previous gen 250.
So is there any benifit at all to an F350 Tremor besides a higher payload sticker?
According to this, the F350 Gooseneck Rating is a bit higher than the F250 Gooseneck rating for an equally optioned Tremor (all other things being equal):
(And this is based on my Tremor that is a Crew Cab with 6.7L diesel.)
