I used to have an F250, and purchased a 2019 Montana 3700LK. Wow, I now exceeded the payload rating by 2600 lbs, in addition to the GCVWR, Rear Axle rating, tire ratings, etc. So, I had to buy a one ton dually. Was not happy about that - I would have bought a lighter 5ver. I towed the Monty just fine with the 250, but it was not safe or legal. Weighed the whole set-up, and found how overweight I was. I have attached the spreadsheet that shows both the F250 and F350DRW ratings and actuals. Go with a one ton DRW.
When I purchased the Monty, I went with the Anderson hitch, mainly for the light weight. It was a real chore getting the Pull Rite hitch in and out of the bed. Now it is a 5 minute job, with only 35 pounds. No chucking or swaying. I have the BW gooseneck hitch, in both the F250 and F350!
BTW, I have an F250 King Ranch for sale!
