Ford F-Series trucks are some of the toughest vehicles on the road today. Whether you’re a Ford lover or are looking for a workhorse to move a metaphorical mountain, this Super Duty family of pickups is a must-buy. We look at what’s new for 2024 and why you should head to your local Texas Ford dealership and find out more.
Included in the F-Series family that we’re taking a look at today are the F-250, F-350, and F-450. The V-8 gas engine in the F-250 and F-350 models is heavy-duty. But, this can be upgraded to the Power Stroke diesel V-8 engine, which comes as standard on the F-450, for even more power. This 6.7-liter monster of an engine delivers 500 horsepower and 1,200 pound-feet of torque. And, with a max payload of 8,000 pounds and a maximum towing capacity of 40,000 pounds, there’s no task this fleet of pickups can’t master.
But, it’s not just the rugged look and power behind the vehicle that makes the F-Series one of the best on the market. The interiors can be configured to a luxurious level with leather seating, a central console that transforms into a desk, and a surround-sound audio system.
New Features for 2024
With the overhaul given to the F-Series in 2023, there isn’t too much Ford could do to improve its 2024 models. Many of the new features can be seen in the available add-ons, such as the Off-Road packages that turn the pickup into a machine that can handle any terrain.
Other stand-outs include a Head-Up Display that beams important information unobtrusively onto the windscreen, and the Co-Pilot360 package, with a 360-degree camera for easy parking and a multi-camera setup that lets drivers see what’s on every side of the vehicle.
Great Standard Power
When you’re in the market for a new pickup, the power it delivers is probably its most important feature. Even the base-level XL trim has a 6.8 liter V-8 engine that gives 400 horsepower and a standard tow capacity of 13,700 poundse.
Towing and Hauling Tech
To help drivers handle all the weight the F-Series can haul, Ford offers various trailer-assist technologies.
Smart Hitch estimates cargo and tongue weight while Onboard Scales measures real-time weight and balance as you load the truck bed. When handling a large trailer, Pro Trailer Hitch Assist will automatically steer, brake, and accelerate for you at the touch of a button, making hitching up a breeze. Another handy add-on is the Trailer Navigation tool that adapts your planned journey to the easiest route for the size of your trailer.
Ford’s F-Series trucks are the workhorses of 2024. With their amazing hauling capability, excellent engine options, and versatile interior, it’s clear to see why they’re the most popular pickup in America.
