1) I'm not trying to validate anything
2) I didn't see your detailed post, infact there are a bunch of post on first page that just showed up in the last 40 min.
As far as F250 F350. the 2000 SRW F250 F350 is the same - springs, rear end, drive train, brakes oh wait one thing is different the LEGAL issue of what they say your payload is a piece of paper and how much you register it for with the state. Heck I pulled 6k TT with a Dodge Durango R/T for 6 years, overloaded maybe.
What I'm was looking for is honest real world answers of engine/drivetrain HP/Torque with modest upgrades. you did answer that just didn't see it till now for some reason or another.
I haven't made a decision, I'm doing research.
No they are not the same , the spring pack is different . thats what makes one a 250 ,and the other a 350
I spent a lot of time towing with a 7.3 , and I was NEVER happy towing in the mountains here in Utah, Idaho, and Montana. I never enjoyed the motor screaming at 3000 rpm's in second gear at 35-40 mph with one eye on the road ,and one eye on the ETG gauge .
It's your choice. I don't care what you do, I'm just telling you what you are in for. Keep it on the flat highways, and out of the mountains ,and you will be a happy camper, provide you have the correct tire capacity for the pin weight etc etc.
