2023 Ford F-Series Super Duty revealed<\/h4>\n

New truck claims best in class everything<\/p>\n

The 2023 F-Series Super Duty is a semi-semi.<\/p>\n

The updated pickup will boast a towing capacity of up to 40,000 pounds when deliveries begin early next year.<\/p>\n

That is the most of any truck in its class and half the maximum weight allowed for a tractor trailer.<\/p>\n

It is a significant increase over the outgoing model’s 37,000-pound rating and more than the Ram 3500 HD’s 37,100-pound rating, which is the highest available today.<\/p>\n

Ford says the 2023 F-350’s maximum payload capacity is also a segment-leading 8,000 pounds, up from 7,850 pounds.<\/p>\n

The F-Series Super Duty achieves it through several updates, most notable among them a new 6.7-liter Power Stroke turbo-diesel V8 High Output engine rated at 500 horsepower and a record 1,200 pound-feet of torque.<\/p>\n

The top tow rating is for an F-450 dual-rear-wheel truck pulling a gooseneck trailer, while the F-350 dually is rated up to 38,000 pounds.<\/p>\n

The 2024 Chevrolet Silverado HD 3500’s towing has been capped at the same 36,000 pounds it has had for the past three years, settling a previous debate for now.<\/p>\n

When the Silverado debuted a couple of months before the latest Ram 3500 in 2020, it claimed it was the best Class 3 truck, arguing that the F-450 was in a higher segment, although the F-450’s gross vehicle weight rating puts it technically one pound below Class 4.<\/p>\n

Along with its hauling capabilities, the F-Series Super Duty is available with a long list of electronic driving aids aimed at making towing easier.<\/p>\n

It offers stop-and-go adaptive cruise control, lane-centering and blind spot monitoring systems that work with fifth-wheel and gooseneck trailers; a backup camera and sensors built into the top of the tailgate so that they work when the tailgate is down; integrated scales that measure the payload and tongue weight; a 360-degree camera system with cameras that can be installed onto a trailer to incorporate it into the bird’s-eye view; and a trailer theft alert that sends a notification to your smartphone if the trailer gets unhitched.<\/p>\n

There is also a Pro Trailer Hitch Assist feature that cameras and sensors to locate a trailer’s coupling and can automatically back up and steer the truck to align the hitch ball with it, plus a navigation system that is able to avoid low bridges and tight turns for trucks towing a large or long trailer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
