Vehicle Overview
The F-Series Super Duty is Ford’s line of heavy-duty pickup trucks, which are available in a variety of configurations and three model series: F-250, F-350 and F-450. The truck can carry as many as six people in certain configurations, and competitors include 2500 and 3500 models in the Chevrolet Silverado, GMC Sierra and Ram truck lines. Two engines are available: a 6.2-liter gas V-8 and a 6.7-liter turbo-diesel V-8. Both engines team with a heavy-duty six-speed automatic transmission.
New for 2015
The 6.7-liter turbo-diesel V-8 now makes 440 horsepower and 860 pounds-feet of torque. The engine gets a larger turbocharger and higher-flow injectors. The F-450’s maximum towing capacity is now 31,200 pounds with a fifth-wheel trailer. This is enabled by commercial-grade 19.5-inch wheels and tires, new rear U-joints and suspension components, stronger steering gears and linkages, and beefier brakes. The F-350 has an available high-capacity towing package with new front springs and a wide-track axle, and maximum fifth-wheel towing capacity is now 26,700 pounds.
