'15 F450 - Towing Capacity 31,200 lbs

They may have some decent factory numbers, typically easily obtainable with tuners, the HP is being destroyed by all the emission requirements. They need the power to simply function.

What's the F350 have in 2015? Back seat again?

Going to be an interesting year for King of the Hill!

Seems that the F350 will have less capacity than the Ram 3500, but the F450 will have more!

Ford says towing capacity in the F-350 will improve from 23,200 to 26,500 pounds; in the F-450, it will improve from 24,700 to 31,200 pounds.

Seems logical. Even at 26,500 pounds GVWR will still be limiting for most trailers behind a 1-ton truck. I'm even considering to move up to 19.5" wheels.

Towing 31,000 lbs in a pickup truck is nuts.

Given that RAM does not have a 4500 or 5500 pickup, they dialed up the 3500. Ford just puts those higher numbers on their 450. It is sort of a my tool is bigger than your tool thingy!

RAM does have real commercial trucks with their 4500 and 5500 CC. Different frame to accommodate the outfitters.
