- Ford's all-new Super Duty truck delivers the highest average payload and towing figures available in a 3/4-ton or 1-ton pickup truck. To get there Ford re-wrote the rules and designed an all-aluminum body and bed. Then Ford pulled out all the stops and added every last bit of luxury goodies and gadgetry they could to create the ultimate Cowboy Cadillac. Or would that be a Cowboy Lincoln?

For anybody who is curious about gas mileage. I have the 2017 F350 dually crew cab 4x4 with the 4.10 rear. Im getting 17.9 driving back and forth to work everyday and 12.9 pulling my camper. Its getting better mileage the more I drive it. Its is well mannered and very quiet. Everybody who has every got into it for the first time notices how quiet the cab it. I love this thing and get compliments everywhere I go.
Thanks for the real-world info. Cheers.
Diesel?
No one buys a F350 Super Duty with a 6.2L V8.
Okie Rider lawn care companies do

Why? And I was mainly referring to those people who are serious about towing heavy loads.
I have absolutely no business looking at this truck but I watched anyway. LOL
Ford is and always will be the truck leader.
Seriously love how knowledgeable Alex is on all type of vehicles. I love learning from him
my videos are better--watch
Alex, your review is always spot on. After much deliberation I bought a new Ford F-250.
2017 F-250 Lariat with 6.7. Average on the on board computer is 18.6. From Los Angeles to Phoenix Arizona, at the speed limit with 5 adults and luggage it gave me 20.4 mpg. The faster you go the lower the mpg. I kept it at max 75mph. From orange county to Bakersfield, same load it gave 19.3.
dejerez 721 what’s the max fuel capacity of the f250?
Alex, your content is so spot on. So much detail and no slip ups lol. I dont know how you do it!
Hands down, the best car reviewer on YT. Facts and opinions given, with reasoning so we can make up our own minds. Much appreciated!!
Excellent review, Alex.
Would really like for Alex to review the Super Duty or any 3/4 ton with the gas engines. I used to be on the diesel bandwagon but the $8k price tag for diesel engines is too big of a price tag when you really start crunching numbers. Not to mention the added maintenance costs and the diesel treatments required (dpf, adblue, etc). The towing and payload capacities of the gas is fine for the majority of people who tow occasionally.
Jaime A Vasquez Jr I agree 100%
Great Review Alex. I normally would even watch a review for HD pickup trucks. However, I gave this one a chance and I don't regret it.
I get more info from this video than from truck's website. well organized and presented.
The other 'camera' on the tailgate is actually an LED light. The truck looks like a starship when you get out of it at night... really cool, loving the 360 camera, magically gives you a drone's eye view when in reverse.
Also, I get around 16mpg on my 2018 with the Powerstroke. At 85mph!
Perfect for my desk job
Unless your truck is your office....
Towing and payload comparison @ 4:00 is brilliant. Thank you.
I love this Pickup.
Alex, many of it's competitors offer bench seating for the front, but why would Ford offer ventilated seats even with the front bench seat whereas many of it's competitors only offer heated seats for the bench seat?
That is a large truck. I just picked up a used 2010 F150 FX4 and it is plenty for towing my race cars. Great trucks!
VERY nicely done Alex!
I was looking forward to this review. It was quite informative and I appreciate the time that was spent trying to untangle the myriad of options and trim levels for a comparison. These trucks aren't cheap, but they are all great, across all of the makes. It was nice to see comparisons and recommendations on that front too. I've been biding my time in the 3/4 - 1 ton market for a purchase, and this definitely helped clear up some things.
I got 25 mpg out of the 6.2 gas going backwards at 65 mph
Great review as always. Do you have any estimates on when you may be getting a Lincoln Continental to review.
Alex, I am very impressed by your knowledge and your articulation. You evidently are a professional ! Thank-you for sharing on this vlog. Question: When will the 2018 Ford F-350 Super-Duty be made public, and when might we expect your review?
No one buys a truck with a 8 foot bed anymore. Why? Because crew cab trucks with that long of bed is not only monstrous but very difficult to park in city lots. Also, where's the blue F250 in the thumbnail?
Just traded my CCSB for a SCLB. SO much better!
Alex, will you be reviewing the 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor?
I just did--watch me instead
great review!
Own a 2017, F-250, 4X4, XLT Crew Cab and have had it to the dealership twice for "death wobble" Ford claims they engineered it out in 2016 for the 2017 (and up) models but even 2018 & 2019 owners are experiencing "death wobble" as well. The dealership replaced a bunch of front end steering and suspension components the first time then told me they couldn't find anything wrong or duplicate the issue the second time in. They said they drove it 37 miles over varied road surfaces but couldn't get it to act up. They said the tire air pressure was incorrect. Ironically, the truck was serviced the previous Saturday by their sister Ford dealership so they adjusted the tire pressure at that visit.....this was the following Thursday the "death wobble" reared it's ugly head again. Last week, two different law firms contacted me asking if I would like to join a class action lawsuit against FOMOCO for this "death wobble" they continue to deny exists or will do anything significant to rid these trucks of it.
When you pay $50k, $60k, $70k, and more for a vehicle, it shouldn't spontaneously start violently shaking to the point it's so dangerous it can cause a crash or worse......
alex great video as always, thx. but pls... try to normalize the audio level.
I also want to see more pickup please
They made the truck taller than the 2016.Makes it even harder to load stuff in etc.
Liked the video. Hope you do one on the new 2018 F150. Lariat.
Now that's a truck!
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the 2017 F150 with diesel.
If I were looking for work horse pick up, I would go with Ram any day.
That Ford logo looks about as big as my Focus grill lol.
What happened to the GMC DENALI . Please do a review on the Denali
GM THE RECALL KING OF THE TRUCK INDUSTRY
Ahhh,now the grille that looks like the handle on a 12 pack make sense.
Can’t you get it in a gas option? I thought there was a flex fuel version
“7630 lbs max payload if it’s properly equipped “ what does he mean by that? I have a f350 xlt?
Not sure what Alex is talking about when it comes to Nissan Titan diesel acceleration.
It is by far the slowest in the class
Not bad for fuel consumption. My 99 Expedition gets about 12mpg around town and I am not towing or hauling that much weight. Lol
Alex, did you have any mpg observations you could share when the truck was empty and just a daily driver? Thanks in advance
Why did my 1992 F250 7.3 with a turbo get better mileage than that? Before it died, I mean. I got 12 around town, 16 on the freeway (with mud tires)
You didn't list the F250 XLT 6.2 gas crew cab
The F-450 can tow 1290 lbs more than the Ram 3500 which is over half a ton more. I’d consider that more than just a lot bit.
god i hate that music but I like the vids
Chassis cab 6.7s are de-tuned?? Why is that?
jspivak86 longevity.
Most are bought by fleets. Are driven really hard and put away wet.
Thanks for another great review. How are you able to do such thorough testing (payload and towing)? Is your N. California 'ranch' that expansive? Also, will you be doing a full review of the Chevy Bolt?
he put his kia soul in the truck's bed, duh
the ultimete in badassery
Have you ever reviewed the 2018 f160
1 in a 1000 chance a gravel hits that camera in front... also how much would it cost to replace it? anyone know?
Eh I'd rather take a raptor thank you very much but if you need a diesel, larger bed and better towing figures than go for it but I don't.
Umm why not do a review on the regular F 150?
When are you going to do this for 2019 F-250?
When are you doing the 540!?
12.5 mpg is stupid low mpg for a diesel 3/4 ton. Our 2001 F250 7.3 4x4 crew cab will get 18 highway and 15 in town easy... Hell, we get 11-13 mpg with a 2000 pound camper on it! The 6.7 is obviously much more capable than an old 7.3 but wow, that's a really disappointing number...
let me explain. EPA. thats all i gotta say, if the truck had all that stupid EPA trash the truck would get about 20+ city maybe 30 or + highway and a tune since the truck is tuned from the factory to be bogged down again because of the EPA
did the the mpg based on 1 week usage, half the time with a payload of 1800 pounds of something. also he towed a 7,000 pound trailer a few times. it would be better if gave us the numbers with it empty,bed full and hauling his trailer. instead of 1 number for all 3
my neighbor said he is getting 17mpg in the city after 2weeks
he hasn't hit the highway yet
2017 f350 dually Crew Cab... I get 17.9 normal driving and 14.9 pulling my camper with the 4.10 gear option and the diesel. I Have a 750 mile range between fill ups. That's not bad...
Kenny TV He calculated that fuel economy with a heavy payload and then a trailer, if wasn't sole highway and city unloaded
MORE COWBELL!
Super Doodie......Super Duty......
the Titan is a Ford clone....
RyanPlays and a shitty one at that. after having a Nissan, I would never buy another, especially not for 60k
Just got rid of my Titan more trouble than worth. Buying a 6.2 ford
I know looks are subjective and I don't look at myself as a truck guy however I do own one. For me, Ford's trucks just seem to be trying too hard to look "mondo". By that I mean their looks are just too strong (I'm sure many like it) and I prefer something that looks like it isn't trying so hard to look tough. I like the look of something toned down some.
Have a look at the 2019 Chevy Silverado. Now *Chevy* made their truck look like a joke.
I bought one with a 6.2 i get 12 city and 14 highway.the door handle design is not safe for dog owners my. Dog almost went under the back wheel when he stepped on the handle taking an on ramp and the door flew open,i grabbed his tail and pulled him back in
Looking to get this truck next , i have a 2015 gmc sierra 1500 , love the truck and never had any problems at all , but i want something with an 8 foot bed , and the new ram 2500 and silverado 2500 both look like shit
Why do these trucks get such terrible mileage? My big rig empty weighs 33k pounds and gets 11mpg
This truck rides like a Cadillac , I love my new f250. Now I don't have to fix rust sorry GM.
BUT Ford will not sell my cargo bed light cause my truck didn't come with the lights . I find that to be NUTS , what a dumb ass policy. Ford said my warranty would be void if I put them on the truck. I don't have to worry cause Ford will not sell them to me! GGGG
Nah, I'll stick with a Miata.
Good luck hauling a fridge home
Bruce Solomon that's what UHaul is for 👍🏻✨
Bruce Solomon Lmao!
Harvard Ford Why not Both? U haul is expensive hell my Minu truck is more usable than a miata
Walter Black lol I just traded my miata for a 7.3l powerstroke
It's 24 times stiffer, not 24% stiffer! You are off by a factor of 100...
Really hate the blue lighting inside a car/truck, because blue lights are harmful/stressful to the eyes, that's why newer computer monitors & TVs have low-bluelight feature.
new Mazda CX5?
So wait, the EPA doesn't test trucks or Semis?! That's outrageous. Why doesn't every green person complain about that than about a Hemi V8?
Blake Swan because the government buys and uses these vehicles in mass and the epa mandated exhaust treatments (def, dpf) cause the economy to half. many deleted trucks get 25 mpg. Also, diesel burns cleaner and requires much less refinement, so it's basically a wash.
What!? Only 2000lbs payload? My Hilux at about half the size of this behemoth has a higher payload capasity than that.
Torvikholm actually up to 7,000 lbs payload. Ridiculous to compare to a Hilux. The larger cab takes up some of the extra payload. Make no mistake. These axles and drive shafts can take a hell of a lot more weight.
What you forget is the "up to". The "up to" is for the bottom of the range model. With the smallest engine, 2wd, and absolutely no options. The gross weight for the SRW is up to 11,5k lbs no matter what. The 7000 lbs payload is for a DRW single cab, again with absolutely no optional extras.
This truck in the video is neither. It is maxed out with every option imaginable. that is why the payload is so low. The curb weight is going trough the roof when you add all the optional extras.
I dont care about what the frame potentially can do in a laboratory. What this specific vehicle is capable of is what i care about.
And it is not enough.
You are right about the Hilux not allowing for the same gross weight. That is at a mere 7K lbs. You forget about the gross weight being static, where as the curb weight is floating according to grades, cabs, and whether or not is is a 4x4.
This is the truck people buy, this is the payload people get. claiming that this also can handle 7000 lbs, because a model weighing 5000lbs less can do it is at best misleading.
I dont care about the fleet buyers, they dont buy this grade. I dont care about the single cab, I know it has a higher payload.
It is this, and this specific truck.
2k lbs is not enough for such a large vehicle.
The US has different rating systems and truck classification, which kind of makes the numbers all meaningless. This is consider a Class 2B truck, giving it a gross weight group of 8,501-10,000 pounds. Since this truck is fully loaded, a top of the line trim that so damn heavy, ~8,000 lbs, it only has about ~2,000 of breathing room in its class. So really, they just make up the number and say it can only carry 2,000 lbs. There's no safety or durability standard that prevents them for making it 3,000 lbs or higher. In fact, there's really only few differences between this and the model that can carry 7,500lbs, just fewer leafs, single rear wheels, larger cab and more equipment, making the curb weight higher and decreasing the payload.
Torvikholm I’ll make it simple then. Most people accept the fact that bigger heavier cabs use up more of the GVW, therefore will yield lower payload numbers.
As apples to apples as I can make this for you:
Toyota HiLux Dbl cab 4x4 diesel automatic:
Payload: 925 kg
Towing: 3200 kg
Power: 130 kW
Torque: 450 Nm
Ford F-350 SRW diesel crew cab 4x4
Payload: 1,800 kg
Towing: 9,360 kg (GN); 8,200 kg (conventional).
Power: 336 kW
Torque: 1,267 Nm
That the ford has more power and torque I have never disputed. The payload, and power for that matter, you have found is for the Australian version. I am from Europe, so therefor we receive the smaller 2.4 liter engine. We also get uprated suspension, so we get a payload of 1035kg + 75kg for driver. ie 1110kg.
www.vegvesen.no/Kjoretoy/Kjop%2Bog%2Bsalg/Kjøretøyopplysninger?registreringsnummer=CF83238
this links to the governments car spec page. and this license plate belongs a dealer demo car, identical to mine.
The "mål og vekt" tab translates to "size and weight", "nyttelast" is "payload".
But what I dont understand is how you managed to find 1800kg payload. He literally said 2000lbs payload for the F350 in question. As I have stated multiple times, I don't care about the entry level model, cause that is not the model people buy. It is this one. That a entry level can handle large payloads is well and good, but when you fill the car up with extras and are left with only 2000lbs payload it is too little.
When I say that my car has a payload of 1110kg, I literally mean my car. I do have the top range with all the optional extras, except GPS. My car has this payload rating, not a stripped out rear wheel drive model with a tiny petrol engine.
7000 lbs in the bed, jesus christ!
when will the aluminatti let Ford get over 70 miles a gallon, 10 sucks for the last 50 years
james huggins aluminatti 😂😂👍🏻
dyno showed ram makes more real torque than ford and chevy ford ndram are in the high 800s the new chevy motor makes 700ish torques the ford how ever makes the highest hp next is ram but ram makes more torque at the wheels tfl truck ran the dyno good stuff
They used 4th gear, fords is over drive and the other two are direct.
At the crank is true engine power results.
That truck makes you look so short.
I own a F-350 and it's been a great truck. I also own a collision center that get's a lot of F series in my shop. I'm certified in aluminum repair. So being a Ford owner and a shop that fixes the F series. STAY AWAY FROM THE NEW FORD F-SERIES. These trucks are unsafe. I'm not talking mechanical engineering. I'm talking body. They are really good for my business I get a lot of work from this aluminum body. I wouldn't have a new F-series if you gave it to me.
Boy the front end is cartoon ugly, the rest looks fine
Some of the worst headlights on any production vehicle literally the equivalent of driving down the road pointing lasers in oncoming drivers eyes.
Payload/ towing capacity... All bs .. It's confusing and mostly a waste of time. I rarely see people in the south towing anything..People buy trucks today as a cool fashion statement..
Wow, why would anyone get a Titan XD over this? Just destroys the Nissan
85 grand... wow.. tesla is going to destroy that 85k market share in the next two years im sure...man.. i didnt know these things cost that much...
You had me until "iPhone"....
People with iPhones seem to be a little slow...
J/K...
Great video, though!
Excellent review. However you lose 10 cool points for that wallet
one camera on tailgate...and an LED light. Learn your product before reviewing it.
Little wee wee!
He says "little bit" a little too much
These trucks are junk, the square body early 90s f150 with the straight six will still be around like cockroachs while these head to the junkyard with under 100k miles on them.
Frankly , no body cares about gas guzzling cars especially ford pick up trucks. It's sad that one of the oldest car manufacture company like ford lack in innovation and poor styled vehicle. New car company like tesla is exceeding in tech and modern car design and desirable by the majority of the consumers . Ford should start in electric vehicles development seriously or face extinction. Hey Ford take notes from Tesla . Ford is greedy car manufacture. Sad and pathetic at company . Love tesla's innovative futuristic cars and services that are in service presently.
cuger60 electric vehicles are shitty when it comes to the truck market.... they’ll never replace 925 ft/lbs in a diesel lol
No more pickup reviews please. It's a totally useless vehicle for MOST people.
Matt McPherson I do not understand why because many do not use them for the capability. Mostly drive to work at an office/ warehouse. They were sold a truck they didn't buy it.
