When it comes to heavy-duty pickup trucks, the Ford Super Duty lineup stands out for its impressive capability and rugged performance. Two of the most popular models in this lineup are the Ford F-250 and the Ford F-350. While both trucks offer immense power and utility, some key differences may make one a better choice for your specific needs. Let's take a closer look at how the F-250 and F-350 compare.
Towing and Payload Capacity
One of the primary factors to consider when choosing between the F-250 and F-350 is the towing and payload capacity you require. When properly equipped, the F-250 offers a maximum conventional towing capacity of 22,000 pounds, while the F-350 can tow up to 27,000 pounds conventionally. If you frequently haul heavy loads or tow large trailers around Ohio, the extra capacity of the F-350 may prove invaluable.
Engine Options
Both the F-250 and F-350 are available with powerful engine options. The standard engine on the F-250 is a 6.2-liter V8 gas engine that delivers 405 horsepower and 445 pound-feet of torque. For even more power, you can opt for the available 6.7-liter Power Stroke® V8 Turbo Diesel that produces an impressive 475 horsepower and 1,050 pound-feet of torque. The F-350 comes standard with the 6.2-liter V8 gas engine but offers the 7.3-liter V8 gas engine and 6.7-liter Power Stroke® Turbo Diesel as available upgrades for maximum capability.
Which Super Duty Truck is Right for You?
Ultimately, the choice between the Ford F-250 and F-350 comes down to your specific needs and intended use for the truck. If you require maximum towing and payload capacity for heavy-duty applications, the F-350 is likely the better choice.
However, if you do not need as much capability and prefer a slightly more maneuverable truck, the F-250 is an excellent option.
