People looking for one of the sturdiest trucks on the market need look no further than their local Ford dealer. The Ford F-450 is packed with power, but it’s also comfortable and stylish on top of it.
A truck this strong needs to have a lot of power under the hood, and the F-450 doesn’t disappoint. The 6.7-liter High-Output Power Stoke Turbo Diesel engine has an astonishingly high torque output of 1,200 lb-ft and 500 hp. It’s not only the most powerful Super Duty truck Ford has ever made; it’s the best in its class.
It Tows Tremendously
There are several engine options available for the F-450, and all of them give it tremendous towing power. The Fifth Wheel Hitch Kit gives the truck a 32,500-lb DRW, and various features assist with towing.
One of the driving modes the truck offers is for towing/hauling, and Smart Hitch Technology helps boost your confidence while towing as it measures tongue weight. The Smart Hitch Technology is available on the Limited, Platinum, King Ranch, and LARIAT models manufactured after the spring of 2023.
It Has Plenty of Payload Capacity
Payload capacity is important too, and the F-450 doesn’t disappoint in that department. OnBoard Scales give an estimate of both the balance and weight of everything you put in the truck bed. The taillamps give you visual cues regarding the balance as you load up your gear. This should help make driving smoother, as you’ll be able to evenly place all the items you need to transport in your truck bed.
The OnBoard Scales are available on the same models as the Smart Hitch Technology mentioned earlier, and the two features work hand in hand to make transporting all kinds of cargo easier than ever.
It Has a Comfortable Interior
You need to stay comfortable while driving, and thankfully, you’ll find plenty of comfort in the F-450. Dual-Zone Automatic Temperature Control makes sure you’re not too warm or cold no matter what season it is. There are various grab handles around the cabin, and a telescoping steering wheel ensures the driver’s arms remain comfortable during long journeys.
There’s space to store your personal items while driving, and the seats are nice and wide so you can relax. Overall, it’s a nice cabin that’s well-made for supporting passengers on long and short trips.
It Has Safety Features
The F-450 is loaded with safety features to make you feel more secure. Some of the safety features available include:
- Automatic Emergency Braking
- Post-Collision Braking
- Intersection Assist
- Reverse Sensing System
- Child Tethers
