Larry,

Technically, I'm sure you are right about the F450 being an MDT. However, it comes in at the lower end of MDT's as it is rated as a class 4 category truck. What I perceive as a true MDT are those like the mini-Freightliners such as the M2 and its customized version, the SportsChassis. Those have a GVWR of 26,000 lbs while the F450 is more like 14,500 lbs as a GVWR.
