Keep in mind the F450 pickup is the same chassis as the 350, but with 4.30 gears and the wide trac front axle. The 450 also only comes in CrewCab/Diesel/4x4 configuration, whereas the 350 is all 3 cabs, 2 or 4 wheel drive, Gas or Diesel. The weight comparisons you have, are comparing the 450 CrewCab Diesel 4x4 (5880lbs capacity) to a 350 Gas Regular Cab 4x2(7080lbs capacity. Compare a 350 that is equipped the same as the 450, and the weights are very close.
