When you get into decorative rock, heavy sands and the like, you can tell that it is a little brother to the 400HP+ trucks. It will drag with a 10 yard load of road crush, and you'll never haul a pup or wagon with it. Also, Sterling is a Ford product, but unlike the 550, 650 and up, it isn't built like a pick up, it's built like a work truck.

whats the gvwr on it? We looked into buying an Acterra ( 33,000 gvwr) but went with an f750, I wasnt aware the Acterra came in lower ratings.
