Too often do payloads prove impossible to carry - with pick-ups sagging beneath the weight, their beds straining and their tires spinning ineffectually. Despite their heavy-duty promises, each truck fails to bear the demands of a long haul; and they turn journeys into impossibilities, leaving drivers stranded.
According to Forbes, the pick-up platform has been tailored for the heaviest loads - with Ford redefining its entire chassis for optimal power. Aluminum now composes its panels, reducing overall weight by 700 pounds. This ensures superior handling, maximizing the electric-assisted steering and taking advantage of the sport-tuned suspension. A 6.7L diesel engine yields 440 HP and 925 lb.-ft of torque, while the ten-speed automatic transmission creates a throaty shifting capability.
Through this, the 2017 F-250 can achieve record-breaking strength - with a conventional rear tow hitch earning 15,000 pounds! This allows drivers to easily accommodate both their residential and commercial needs, with Ford’s crew cab proving rough-and-ready.
It’s also economical. As Forbes explains, the new Super Duty provides 15 MPGs in the city - ranking it among North America’s most efficient trucks. This enables drivers to focus on their payloads, not the pump.
