Todd sent me the link...always wondered why GVWRs went from 19k to 26k.

10 speed auto would be desirable to me in a truck that size.

Probably gonna be the coolest salt truck available.. 4wd in such a capable truck that is the same size as a pickup, especially with the new 7.3 no more emission problems on a high idle truck... I want one, same with the new f450 regular cab Long box pickup

For salt trucks (at least for me) maneuverability is second to capacity. I love the 26K GVWR for that. Even my Sterling turns great.

I would imagine this truck will have the same legal payload of maybe even more then a 650 (26,000) lb truck just due to it being so light with the gas job and transmission and different frame

So 19.5 to 22K... Wonder how much that extra ton will cost you...

Let's hope it's the same as going from 450-550, not much
