2017 Ford Super Duty’s New Updates Make It an Unstoppable Pickup

WESTLAND, Mich. –– What would you expect in a heavy-duty pickup if its automaker claimed it was the toughest, smartest, and most capable truck leader? Ford Motor Co. didn’t outright claim this for its newest Super Duty, but plenty of Built Ford Tough drivers are happy to tout that the 2017 Ford Super Duty’s new updates make it an unstoppable pickup, and here’s why:

The 2017 Super Duty is Tough

Ford gave the newest addition to its heavy-duty lineup an all-new, high-strength steel frame that hikes up frame stability by 24 times that of the previous Super Duty’s frame. Did you just put your boat away for the season? It’s time to pull it back out because you need to experience the 2017 Super Duty’s hauling power thanks to stronger four-wheel-drive, driveline, axles, and towing components.

The steel frame battens down the hatches for you, but overtop of that foundation is high-strength, military-grade, aluminum alloy, which Ford is proud to claim “is more dent- and dint-resistant than the outgoing steel body and not subject to red rust corrosion.” By using high-strength aluminum alloy, the Super Duty dropped 350 pounds but keeps a strong core thanks to its steel frame. How’s that for all the aluminum haters out there?

The 2017 Super Duty is Smart

Remember when we told you you’re going to need to pull your boat back out to experience the towing capacity of the new Super Duty? Well here’s another reason: Ford says “towing is core to the Super Duty mission,” and brand new coaching and camera technology makes it easy and convenient. Check out this technology:

• 16 segment-first new features, including LED lighting and adaptive cruise control
• Seven cameras that show more angles and monitor the premises around the truck
• Center high-mounted stop lamp camera so you can see inside the cargo box easily, and to help you attach your trailer
• 360-degree camera system that shows an above view of the area around the pickup
• Trailer reverse guidance to help you reverse with whatever you have in tow
• Trailer camera able to be hooked up for increased visibility assistance
• In-cab trailer tire pressure monitoring system
• Adaptive steering technology to help you maneuver with the biggest loads
• SYNC 3 communications and entertainment system
• Blind Spot Information System
• Lane departure warning to alert you when another driver veers into your lane
• Adaptive cruise control and collision warning

The 2017 Super Duty is Capable

After shedding hundreds of pounds, the new Ford Super Duty is more capable than it ever has been. You can stick a 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 diesel engine under the hood to get an insane amount of horsepower and torque. Opt for a 6.2L V8 gas engine for your F-250 and you experience the TorqShift-G transmission. Or, go with a 6.7L Power Stroke V8 diesel, a 6.8L V10 gas, or a 6.2L V8 gas engine. Regardless of what engine you choose, you’ll have more towing and hauling power than you’ve had the privilege to experience as of yet.

2013 Ford F-150 is Best Light-Duty Pickup Truck

WESTLAND, Mich. - The 2013 Ford F-150 has been named the best light-duty pickup truck on the market by PickupTrucks.com and Popular Mechanics Magazine.  Facing off against five other competing pickup trucks, the Ford F-150 proved itself to be a head above the rest in capability and performance.

The 2013 Ford F-150 was named the best light-duty pickup truck, but the title wasn't one that was handed over easily.  The pickup trucks were pushed to the limit as they were rigorously tested for acceleration, braking, fuel economy and more.  Out of the 13 tests that competitors were subjected to, the Ford F-150 took first or second place in 11 of them, which made the vehicle stand apart as a true champion.  Mark Williams, editor of PickupTrucks.com was quoted as saying, "If this were the Olympics, there would be a new Ford F-150 on a cereal box."

While the pickup truck won't be found on a box of Wheaties, it will continue to be the best pickup truck in America. For 36 consecutive years the Ford F-150 has been the best-selling truck in the country, and  for 31 years, the best-selling vehicle.  It is also the brand with the most trucks on the road with 250,000 miles or more - but with a vehicle whose slogan is "Built Ford Tough", you wouldn't expect anything less!
