Best truck I’ve owned.

This truck is an amazing tool to get the job done. I’ve had it for a year and a half and I hate to have to sell it.

So far So good!

Bought a used 2017 F250 XLT 6.2 with 19550 miles. After 1 month and 1000 miles I have no complaints. The gas engine has plenty of power for my needs. I've easily towed a 8000lb horse trailer (5800 trailer w/LQ's and two horses) four times for a total of 160 miles. It has the plow/camper package so without a load it is a rough ride on anything but flat surfaces but the comfortable seats help a lot. I'm getting as much as 20mpg on the highway (I'm sure with the wind at my back). I do average 18mpg highway and 15mpg city. Great truck so far and I don't anticipate any problems.

Death wobble is unnerving.

The shake in the front end when I hit a bump at highway speeds is unacceptable. I have repeatedly told the dealer it is bad but the root cause is still not fixed. There is not enough caster in the wheels.

Great truck for any thing you need to do!

This truck is great! Plenty of power to do anything you need to do with all the comforts you want. Super quiet and comfortable you won’t think you’re driving a truck.

More than what I expected

This is my first truck, and boy do I love it. I gave it only 3 stars for reliability because I haven't had it that long yet. This is a very large truck. I really didnt realize how huge and spacious it is until I got it home. There is nothing I dont like about it.

Powerful, trouble-free truck

Great looking crew cab truck with a powerful 6.7 Ford diesel engine. Got the manual transfer case shifter with lock out front hubs. This model has expanded leg room in the back seat. Got the carpet delete which is a nice feature with 5 grandkids.

This is the tow vehicle you want!

Ford has definitely set a new bar with the 2017 F250 Super Duty. It's easy to forget you're driving a heavy hauler because the comfort and quiet ride rivals some luxury cars. It gets much better mileage than was expected too. If a long distance tow vehicle that won't leave you worn out when you arrive at the destination is what you need, look no further!

Best looking truck on the road

I purchased the vehicle because of looks and performance. It is very comfortable on long road trips. This is my third F-250 I also feel safer in a larger vehicle.
