Something else to look at is what it would cost you to replace an F450 and the longevity vs an HDT. Just remember an HDT with 700,000 miles is still designed to run another 300,000 miles (give or take) without rebuilding the drivetrain. Miles are not as much of a concern with the bigger trucks. Also, your F450 is just as wide as an HDT. The only difference is the HDT is the same width from front to rear whereas your F450 is only wide in the rear.
