Doesn't Ford use the same cab for the F150-250? If so then how could the F250-350 be so big and bulky? IIRC the F150 with tow mirrors is the same exact width as an F25-350. A little rougher ride in the F250, but other than that they're both big trucks.
My truck handles nice for a truck, but it is bulky, wide, long, harder to get around slower vehicle, I keep forgetting to slow down enough for on and off ramps, is a pain in the behind in parking garage, etc, but the good thing about this truck when not towing, it's quick as heck, and has the best combination of towing ability, and the least sacrifice since I need a truck for this trailer.
A larger and heavier truck would be much more of a sacrifice than my truck. I can at least tolerate my truck at times when not towing, but I don't look forward to driving the truck if not towing. The HDs are slower, several thousands pounds heavier, stops longer, taller, gasser has a far inferior engine/transmission combination for towing and none towing for my trailer than the 3.5 EB/Ten speed.
I named my truck, Fat Boy...lol
My friends keep telling me that I will get use to it after a while, well I'm used to it, and unless I'm towing a trailer, I'm constantly wishing I drove my car instead.
I'm heading back out of town tonight, and that truck stays parked.
