2018 Ford F-250 XL Super Cab

2018 Ford SuperDuty F-250 XL Super Cab

The heavy-duty pickup you’ll want on your work crew is the Ford Super Duty®. Check out these specs: best-in-class 7,630-lb. maximum payload and 21,000-lb. conventional tow ratings — plus a gross combination weight rating of 42,800 lbs. that’s also best-in-class. Super Duty delivers exceptional capability as well for towing the really big loads, with either its maximum 27,500-lb. 5th-wheel or best-in-class 34,000-lb. gooseneck tow rating.

Today’s generation of the Ford Super Duty® is the toughest, most capable heavy-duty pickup we’ve ever built. Body weight was slashed by going with high-strength, military-grade, aluminum alloy. Some of that weight savings was then reinvested where it really counts in a work truck — stronger axles, beefier steering and chassis components, and a fully boxed frame built of over 95 percent high-strength steel.

Torque rules in the hardworking world of heavy-duty pickups, especially when you’re hauling and towing huge loads. And here, not surprising, the Ford Super Duty® rules. The 6.2L gas V8, with its best-in-class gas torque, delivers more heavy work-capable muscle. Need the severe-duty stamina of a durable, powerful diesel? Ready to join your workforce is the available Power Stroke® Turbo Diesel V8, the class leader in horsepower and torque.

Features may include:

• Add style to Super Duty® toughness with these features: bright chrome grille, chrome front and rear step bumpers, STX fender vent badge, and 18-inch cast aluminum wheels (F-250/F-350 SRW), 17-inch forged polished aluminum wheels (F-350 DRW), or 19.5-inch forged polished aluminum wheels (F-450). Color-coordinated carpeting is optional.

• The upper and lower headlamps provide both low- and high-beam outputs, with the combined four low beams producing more light output than the high beams on the previous Super Duty® model.

• Super Duty® comes with standard AdvanceTrac® with Roll Stability Control™ (RSC) and Trailer Sway Control on both single- and dual-rear-wheel models. Both systems use gyroscopic sensors and apply a combination of reduced engine power and selective wheel braking to help maintain the stability of the vehicle and the trailer in tow.
