2015 Superduty order guide

I have looked at the ford ordering information several times and after looking at this one I still think it is a hard thing to figure out.

I am not sure the 4:30 is a new option. I ordered a 2008 F-350 V-10 with the 4:30 rear end. Now waiting on delivery of a 2014 F-250 6.2L gasser

It is for a F-350 6.7 dually diesel. Could only get it with a 3.73 previously.

Hello Jack, Diane
I see that we are practically neighbours Milton-Burlington, ON.
Wonder if you could give me your opinion? We are just about ready to factory order our first Ford F-250 6.2L gasser and as such I am debating between the 4.3 and 3.7 rear end ratio.
Our 5th wheel comes in at about 9,000lbs; yearly travel about 7 to 10,000 klm mostly eastern seaboard taking us through the Appalachian, Allegheny Mountains, Blue Ridge area and the flats of the southern states. This will be our retirement tow vehicle with plans of upgrading our 5th wheel in a few years. The TV will be solely dedicated to towing as I have a 1988 Jeep which I use for daily in town running around.
I look forward to your opinion as you have experience with both 4.3/3.7 ratios.
Regards,
Guy

Guy, go for the F-350 for better payload. 4.30 axle if it's your dedicated tow vehicle.
Great choice!

Noticed the "Trailer Tow Package - High Capacity" option for the F350 has the front fender flairs and wide front axle.

We seen a video of this truck smoking the RAM and the Cheby a couple of months ago! :B

Thanks! This is like getting the new Sears catalog!
You youngin's won't understand...

Guy, hope you don't mind me chiming in on this, since I have a 6.2 F250, and I spend time on the ford-trucks forum as well. If you're going to order your truck, and pull a 5er, I would second the recomendation for the F350, and definately get the 4:30 gears. Your 9,000 lb 5er will turn into over 10,000 real easy after you load it up. The gasser will do fine if you understand how gassers pull (High RPM's on the hills), and are OK with that. Good luck and keep us posted on the new truck, I love mine.
