New Ford Super Duty F-450 DRW for Sale in Burton, OH
Preston Ford in Burton stocks the Ford F-450 Super Duty for Geauga County buyers who need maximum gooseneck and fifth-wheel capacity. When the F-350 isn't enough, the F-450 steps up.
Who loves the F-450: Hotshot haulers running heavy equipment on I-90 | Large horse operations pulling six-horse trailers out of Middlefield | RV owners with massive fifth-wheels | Commercial operations that need the most truck Ford makes in a pickup body
The Most Truck You Can Get Without a CDL
There's a point where even the F-350 DRW starts to feel like you're asking too much of it. Your trailer weighs what it weighs. Your equipment isn't getting lighter. You need a truck that doesn't just handle the load—it handles it with room to spare. The F-450 is that truck. More axle capacity. More frame. More everything. It's the heaviest-duty pickup Ford builds, and it exists for buyers who've already outgrown everything else.
In Geauga County, the F-450 buyer is a specific person. You're running a serious horse operation in Middlefield with a six-horse gooseneck. You're a hotshot hauler working I-90 between Cleveland and Buffalo with heavy equipment. You bought a fifth-wheel RV that weighs more than some houses. You're a commercial operation that needs real capability but doesn't want to deal with CDL requirements. If that's you, stop looking at F-350s. You need the 450.
What the F-450 Brings
- Gooseneck/fifth-wheel: Up to 40,000 lbs—the highest in Ford's pickup lineup
- Conventional towing: Up to 24,000 lbs
- Payload: Massive bed capacity for the heaviest loads
- Upgraded suspension: Beefier than F-350 to handle the increased weight ratings
- Power Stroke diesel: Standard on most configurations—this truck is built for diesel
The F-450 isn't a truck you buy because you might need the capability someday. It's the truck you buy because you've already pushed an F-350 to its limits and need more. The price premium over the F-350 makes sense when you're pulling loads that require it. If you're not sure whether you need a 450 or a 350, you probably don't need the 450. But if you know you need it, nothing else will do.

What's the difference between F-350 DRW and F-450?

How much can an F-450 tow?

Is the F-450 only available as a dually?
Yes. At the F-450 level, dual rear wheels are standard. The weight ratings require the stability and load distribution that four rear tires provide.
