Wow.... Very impressive and the first truck to pull 30k lbs in this test.

It's the first truck FLT has put 30k behind it. They didn't have a trailer heavy enough to do it when testing the Ram. Impressive, yes but the first time 30,000 has been pulled up that mountain behind a pick up? I doubt it.

Makes no sense. 4,700# payload. Ford is shooting themselves in the foot with this truck trying to compete in towing numbers with the other two 3500's. I have a SRW 3500 on the rack at work up fitting it that has 4300# payload. Yes it is 4x4, crew cab, long bed, diesel, SRW.

I liked the adaptive cruise control. The way it controlled the weight coming down was impressive.

Interesting..... now their finally testing these size trucks at the GCW numbers commerce have been pulling at for years.

The F450 4x4 pickup in the past wasn't that popular with haulers as it was so heavy and ate up payload numbers. However it has remained popular with RV folks.

I'm not a fan of making much ado about one several minuet run up a hill but the truck looks like it should be popular with recreational trailer owners.... of all types.
