Some of them had 4.88 axles, some had 4.30. IMO, 4.30 isnt too bad. You can always go to a taller tire to cut some of the rpm down. I hear the 6.4 diesels can actually get good mpg if you do a dpf delete kit and tuner, but there goes the warranty...Love the F450 turning radius though. its sweet.

Hey Mike, i was just looking at Fords current incentives. Right now they are offering a 5k rebate on the 6.4 diesel trucks, another 1k loyalty rebate if you own and trade in a ford, 1k promotional cash. Thats 7k in rebates.
You can prob get a 50k dollar truck for under 40k brand new. Keep in mind the tax savings also if you trade in vs. selling outright. Sometimes you will have to sell your truck on the street for 3k or more to make it worthwhile for you. You can pay tax on say 40k, or tax on what the diff is between sale price and trade in price.
With these incentives, i cant see how some of the asking prices on used trucks are so high. Lets not forget the 0% for 60 months or 1.9% for 72 months they are offering on the 2010 6.4. When i bought my 2004 King Ranch Superduty new in 2004, it stickered for 48k. They had 0 for 72, i took that option and had a payment no higher than a used 30k dollar truck at 6.9 for 60 months. Sure a 2011 would be nice with the new motor and all, but a new 2010 for the price of a used 2008 or 2009 would be my route!

Here's that 450...I'm guessing that since you have to CALL for the mileage, it's pretty damn high...

Cool looking truck for sure. Love those 19.5 alcoas on the F450's. Tires dont appear to be original, i could be wrong. I think they came with continentals, and those treads look like firestone steeltex. Aftermarket exhaust as well. Appears to be "silverline" brand, what is what I had on my Ford. Nice exhaust.
nice thing about the 19.5 wheels is you can run commercial truck tires that last a very long time compared to a light truck tire.
That 450 would look great pulling your boat. And probably look real nice pullin mine too!
