Casually considering one of these as a possible vehicle purchase in the next couple years or so.
Have a question. Other than the 'obvious' answer of 1/4 ton better...just how much stouter is the F-350 over the F-250 and is it worth the extra expense for moderate expedition travel.
By that I mean a vehicle able to
a) carry 3-4 people, a bed full of equipment and such, heavy duty bumpers and recovery equipment (heavy winch)
b) be able to handle about a 3 on the "Scotty Scale" as it was recently referred to:

Also, interstate travel is a factor.
