And he reaffirmed that if you add the same overloads or bags to the 250 that you gain the payload but legally you're still bound by the 10k GVWR and your registration fees will still be lower. ;-)

I need to upgrade my signature to F350 then. I have the camper package and overload springs. Also rear sway that stops the hop on bumps or uneven payment.

Not changing mine until I can put F350 CC Dually in it! ;-)

Just wondering...Does the camper package raise your GVWR to 11.4 k? Or are you still at 10k?

And how do you like that rear sway? Have you driven a SD without it so you can give some personal feedback? I'm interested in that as well. Hate that hop when unloaded. I keep my hitch and lumber yard in the truck unless I need to pull it for a load so that helps a bit. But dang that hop can be so irritating.

A sway bar does nothing for wheel hop. Shocks or added weight will help.

Does the 4x4 dually have the same hop?

I have NO wheel hop. Never. I have my truck tuned and I accel quickly at times. It will spin the tires but never hop. Full 8 foot bed crew cab 4x4 with an auxiliary tool/fuel box and the 5th wheel hitch. The longer wheelbase and weight helps.

The sticker says 9900 for licence issues. The rating on the truck with a camper package says have 450 lbs more payload.
