“Super Duty customers expect the best, and for 2018 we’re giving our customers, even more, power and torque from our 6.7-liter Power Stroke diesel – delivering the most horsepower and torque available among all heavy-duty pickups,” Todd Eckert, Ford truck group marketing manager said in a Ford press release. “Plus, our new F-450 pickup now includes a 4X2 model, enabling our customers to get more done with the segment’s best payload and towing.”
Does the 2018 Super Duty have a diesel engine?
The secret behind the incredible performance specs of the 2018 Ford Super Duty is its upgraded 6.7-liter Power Stroke diesel engine. When compared to the rest of the segment, the 2018 Ford Super Duty offers a best-in-class 450-horsepower and 935 pound-feet of torque; both of which represent a significant increase over the performance scores measured in 2017.
How much can it tow?
Among the most important requirements a heavy-duty pickup truck has is with towing capacity. The 450 horsepower and more than 900 pound-feet of torque produced by the new Power Stroke diesel engine translate into another best-in-class rating with a 34,000-pound capacity when the truck is equipped with a fifth-wheel rig. Additionally, the new Ford Super Duty can pull loads up to 21,000 pounds using a conventional hitch assembly.
