Bye-Bye King Ranch, hello Limited

There were 2 suckers in this deal, my dealer buying my KR back for just about what I paid 3 years ago, and then there's me that left with this. But, it was a wash and I prefer this white over my stone grey. Also the turning radius from the 350 to the 450 is awesome when I turn on my driveway. We also don't notice the ride being any worse. Both trucks unloaded are rough.

Funny, we are going from a 2019 450 Limited to a 2022 450 King Ranch. Be careful of blue jean transfer on that light colored leather, or you will end up with stains like I have on my Limited.

A good leather cleaner will take that denim transfer right off the seat

Looks sweet....makes my F-450 Lariat feel like a peasant vehicle. LOL I went from a black F-350 DRW to this star white and love the white much better too. Oh and the turn radius is one of the main reasons I bought this truck.

Here is mine.

Pretty truck. I'm curious what rear end the 450 has and what the actual fuel mileage is compared to your previous 350 towing a 5th wheel.

Mine has a Limited Slip w/4.30 Rear Axle Ratio. My 2012 SRW F350 had a 3.55 out back. My fully deleted F350 could get 22 mpg. My F450 is fully deleted and gets 15-16 mpg. Some folks could get better or worse. When I tow my 21K TH I get around 10-11mpg. I fully expected a lower mpg when I went from 3.55 to a 4.30. It doesn't bother me.

Beautiful, I have a KR on order but this Guy ordered this 450 pretty exact to what I was waiting for. Once dealer informed me I would not have massaging seats they knew I needed to look for something else. This Truck came in and the guy couldn't make it in and they told him come by the end of the week or its sold. So Monday they called me and I went to test drive. We ordered a 350 and never considered the 450 due to the harsh ride rumor. Took my wife in and she loved it, ride is just as bad in 350 as 450. Plus now I can flex on my truck friends with some good fun teasing on having a F450. lol

Me either, truck was ordered this way, minus the rolling cover so I was pleasantly surprised.

Same rear as 350 DRW, larger diameter axles. 4.30 Gears.
I deleted my last truck, not going to do it again.
similar set up on this truck, mileage is about the same, haven't towed my 18,000lb 5th wheel yet though.
