05 250 vs 350

Does anyone know the differences between the 05 250 and 350? Are they the same except for blocks badges and tires as they were the last few years? $1100 between seems a little steep for basicly the same truck.
Thanks, Phil

The f-350 '05 got more towing capacity, it can do more in the departement of towing and such. Its also build heavier, the steal use for the chassi is thicker but i dont know by how much.

This may have been true before 1999, but not any more. The 350 has a higher GVW rating, and different tires. They tow the same, the frames are the same. Oh, a 350 can come with DRWs, aswhere the Dodge and GM 3500s are strictly DRW.

Not any more. Dodge has a 3500 SRW and CH does too I think.

Can we stop yelling.......

The main difference in DRW F-350's (99-04) is that a lot of people forget, it comes with a larger rear-end that is shared with the F-450.
