As one of three brand new heavy duty (or Super Duty, in Ford speak) trucks for the latest model year, the F-350 is the middle child of the consumer-oriented Super Duty trucks, slotting between the F-250 and F-450 in terms of payload and hauling capacity.

For the latest model year, the Ford dropped the underpowered 5.4-liter V8 from the Super Duty line, with the new base engine being a 6.2-liter SOHC gas engine.

This new standard engine brings 385 horsepower and 405 lb-ft of torque to the F-250 - an improvement of 85 horsepower and 40 lb-ft of torque. Engines will no longer be mated to a five-speed automatic, as that transmission has been replaced with a new six-speed SelectShift automatic.

Also gone for the latest truck is the short-lived 6.4-liter diesel engine, replaced with an all-new, in-house designed Scorpion 6.7-liter turbocharged diesel. This new range-topping engine produces 400 horsepower and 800 lb-ft of earth-moving torque - an improvement of 50 horsepower and 150 lb-ft of torque compared to the diesel engine it replaces.

The all-new diesel will be mated to an all-new TorqShift heavy-duty six-speed automatic transmission. Ford says this new transmission is more durable, allows for increased power and torque with its SelectShift Automatic feature. Ford has also developed a unique Live Drive PTO (Power Take Off) functionality that is a segment first and class-exclusive.

The PTO will be available on diesels only, and allows for an output gear that is linked through the torque converter to the engine crankshaft. this will allow the transmission to power substantial auxiliary equipment such as snowplows, aerial lifts, tow truck lifts, cement mixers and dump truck beds.

The F-350 SRW has a maximum Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of 11,500 lbs, while maximum payload capacity equals 4,100 lbs. When equipped with a fifth wheel, the F-350 SRW can pull as much as 16,500 lbs with the diesel, and as much as 15,700 lbs with the gas engine.

Switching to the F-350 dual-rear wheel setup will boost those figures across the board. GVWR raises to 13,000 lbs, and max payload jumps to 6,520 lbs. Fifth-wheel towing also jumps to 21,600 lbs.

Four trim levels of the F-350 Super Duty exist, starting from the XL, to the XLT,Lariat and King Ranch.

The standard cab has a seating capacity of three occupants abreast, and there is the SuperCab and Crew Cab as options, both of which offer five or six seats, depending on if the front bench seat is ordered. The latter obviously does it in more comfort, and features power windows that go all the way down into the door. Buyers also get a choice of 6.75- or 8-foot long boxes on all but the Regular Cab, which only gets the long box.

If one options up the Dual Rear Wheel (DRW) model, they only get it with an 8-foot box. Four wheel drive is optional across the range.
