Ford chose to limit the F450 pickup to 14K lbs GVWR yet has the F450 chassis cab up to 16.5k lbs. Because the F450 pickup uses heavier duty components than the F350 DRW pickup, you may actually see less payload available due to the cap that Ford put on it. I see it strictly as marketing choice rather than the actual capacity of this truck.

So many states will list any truck with a GVWR greater than 14,000# as commercial with much higher registration fees and higher insurance rates.
That F450 is far more capable than the F350 SRW, anyone should be able to figure that out.
With the SRW trucks they offer a 10,000 lb GVWR option which consists of a different door post sticker to get around some of those registration laws.
