The very best selection of dually trucks I have ever seen is in Columbus Ohio during the Quarter Horse Congress. There will be all brands, Ram, Ford, Chevy all in one place.
Richard Ford will bring in a few F-450's and F-550's along with 2 or 3 650's.
Freightliner will be there with 3 of 4 sport chassis.
Chevy will have a few 5500 trucks
Ram will have a few 5500 trucks
I bought my F-450 from Richard Ford. On the windshield was QH 'Quarter Horse'.
This was the only place I saw more dually trucks than SRW. The MDT's made the LDT duallies seem small.
This event runs for 3 weeks in late Sept to mid Oct.

Wow, 4,114 lbs CCC [emoji106] and can carry 6 people, cool[emoji41] . I wish I was patient enough to look for gas F-350 but a gas F-250 was a lot easier to find. I wanted a light color living in Florida and I wanted 2WD with a locking rear diff living in Florida. Found a very nice Silver 2WD Lariat trim F-250.
To the OP - try hard to find that F-350 as it will have a very nice CCC.

Much thanks to everyone for all of the leads and advice.
I have decided to wait until the new 7.3 gas engines hit the dealer lots and start from there.

Good plan, also as an added bonus to 7.3 gas engine you get a 10 speed auto automatic. It typically takes awhile for full ramp up on the new model. I am anxious to see the specs on the new engine as well as specs on whole truck.
I worked in IT at a Honda Plant for 9 months. For 9 months they were building 1,200 - 1,350 redesigned cars a day on 1 shift. The goal was to build 1,500.
In 2011 when Ford built the Eco-Boost it built the 5.0 and 6.2 litre engines 1st and it took an additional 2 or 3 months for the Eco-Boost. I know because I wanted the Eco-Boost but took a 5.0 because I needed a truck.
The point here is it is not easy for manufactures to ramp up on a new model.
I would not expect the 2020 Super Duty trucks to be widely available until early next year, maybe even March 2020.
This is a total redesign and not just a new gas and tweaked diesel engine.

It's not as easy as just F250 versus F350. For example, a '19 F250 CC SRW 4X4 6.2 has a rear GAWR of 6,340 pounds regardless of tire and wheel options. A F350 CC SRW 4X4 6.2 with 17" tires has the same rear GAWR as the F250 at 6,340 pounds. With 18" all-season tires the F350 rear GAWR increases to 6,780 pounds, and with 18" all-terrain tires it increases to 7,230 pounds.
Same rear axles but the F250 is derated to stay at or under 10K GVWR???

The all new naturally aspirated V8 is going to be kick ass. Lots of torque down low. But it may be a while before they are available. The V10 is a good motor. Strong. Proven. Reliable.
