I have an 11 f450 - so basically an f350 tow boss
Honestly, I recently purchased a 2011 international lonestar (class 8 power unit) with 300,000 miles on it for much less than I paid for the 450. So.... If it's it really is capability you are looking for that is the direction I would look - if you are not going to be driving icy roads or backing into mud holes since any rv trailer you put behind it is like running bobtail. For the daily driver get a smart. If going pickup and driving ice the f350 is a better choice since there are no comparable winter tires in the 19.5 in size. Also, I suspect the f450 is also limited to 83 mph if that makes any difference to you
