I'm a ex Ford owner, new to dodge...
Ford has the better frame, paint, and body, fit and finish in the Ford is better.
If thiers a downside with Ford, thier F-150's are fat and heavy trucks and the 04+ cabs are verry tiny in comparison to the previuos gen Fords and the Ram.
I switched to Dodge For the Hemi and a bad run of relabilly in my last two Fords, My 06 2500 reg cab 4x4 long box whighs less than the 04 F-0150 reg cab 4x4 I used to own...
Lets just say my 5.7 6sp combo has three times the power and go twice as far on flue than trhe 5.43v 4 sp automatic..

It seems to me, if you are pulling so much weight that the frame strength comes into play, you obviously need to step up to the 450/550, 4500/5500, or gms kodiak series. In our families we have had all 3(1/2 &3/4 tons Ford-Chevy-&Dodge), have loaded the snot out of all of them, and not had a frame issue with any of them.
