06 F250/F350 Differences?
Im looking at a 06 F250 XL Reg cab 4x4 5.4l Auto for $23,000 New. Theres an 06 F350 XL $27,000 new with the same setup, same color, damn thing looks exactly like the other. Ive looked underneath both and i do not see any difference! I dont wanna pay 4K just for the F350 emlbem and some extra springs.
Whats the differences of these two other then being a 3/4 ton and a 1 ton? Or is that the only difference? Thanks

Looking at the 05 ratings (all I have handy) The payload on the reg cab 4x4 has the 350 at 1400 lbs more! One thing you should notice is the rear ride height... the 350 has 4" blocks making it sit 2+" taller in back.

I know those are Man. Trannys but you should get the idea. It will depend what suspension Package that is on the truck. Camper, Snow Plow, Heavy Service suspension or Stabilizer Packages!!

I have two F250's, and it really depends on what you are going to do with those trucks. Try looking at the commercial trucks, they may be a bit cheaper and the 350 might be a better catch. The 350 is a beast, but you won't be sorry when that heavy load or pull is calling.
