The F250 is in a vehicle class limiting it to 10k lbs GVWR. Even if it was identical hardware to a F550, the regulatory class would limit its payload so the GVWR is not exceeded.
What payload is the recommended payload for a F250?Heard some ridiculous numbers
Quoted
LOL...depends on what type of website your on.
Over on a haulers websites a F250 payload is determined by the vehicles axle/tire load ratings.
Most 250/2500 size trucks gas or diesel can have up to 3000-3400 lbs of payload in the bed before exceeding a rawr/tire/wheel/rear spring pack.
Now if the F250 has the camper package/heavy service package the trucks suspension is the same suspension ratings as the F350 SRW.
Most folks know the F250/350 srw can have same platform specs.....just different assigned gvwr number.
More gvwr payload sticker sillyness;
Ford markets F350 SRW with a 10000 gvwr and its computed low gvwr payload sticker....and in the same exact truck between the bumpers can have a 11200 GVWR with its gvwr based payload sticker.
