My point was that it is ASSummed by many to be exactly the same truck as the higher stickered trucks.
I would never ASSume such a thing without doing my homework. Doesn't matter what a salesperson says, or some unknown poster on a forum.
The home work has already been done. Hang around some of the Ford truck websites shows us those folks already have all the numbers.
Hell even at my age its easy to read Fleet Fords website mechanical weight specs and see which trucks are different and which are the same.
So when someone says the 10000 gvwr or 11500 gvwr F350 srw (example) crew cab 6.7 diesel 4x4 172" wb is the same truck those specs from Ford proves it out.
The F350 SRW has several other cab/bed length/etc with different gvwr numbers.....but the same truck.
One irv2 member came up with a new F350 SRW 6.7 with the 10k gvwr sticker. The weight cops were very bad over there at that time. They convinced the poor guy he had to trade for the same truck with a 11500 gvwr sticker. Cost him 2700 bucks all together....but ignorance is bliss and he towed happily down the road.
