Competition among pickup trucks is fierce and constant with automakers always trying to one up each other and claim new bragging rights.
The 2024 Ford F-Series Super Duty pickup truck recently received fresh styling and a new interior with big digital displays and material upgrades. But it's the diesel engine and towing technology that won us over to name the Ford F-Series Super Duty cars.com's Best Pickup Truck of 2024. A high output 6.7 liter diesel makes 500 horsepower and a jaw dropping 1200 pounds feet of torque, enabling certain models to have a 40,000 pound max towing capacity. The Super Duty drives beautifully for a huge truck, either on or off road. But heavy duty pickups are really meant for towing, and the Super Duty's towing technology really impresses. There's no gimmicky tech in the new Super Duty. All of the new features are designed to make living with and using the truck that much easier for everybody. Most amazing is the Pro Trailer Hitch Assist that automatically backs the truck up perfectly to a trailer's coupler using a suite of cameras, sensors, and onboard artificial intelligence. Combine it with the Pro Trailer Backup Assist, which lets you steer the connected trailer from a knob on the dash, and the Super Duty becomes the best towing rig in the land. There's also now a second backup camera mounted atop the tailgate, which allows you to see behind the truck even when the tailgate is down. Combine the new tech with the refreshed truck itself and you have cars.com's Best Pickup Truck of 2024, the Ford F-Series Super Duty.
