Introduction
Pickup trucks in the HD segment are built for getting the job done. With new technology and intense competition automakers are pushed to build the toughest truck possible.
Most trucks are measured by their reliability and their towing capacity. Ford continues to be a force in the truck community with the Super Duty. With the highest towing capacity at 40,000 pounds the Super Duty is built from the ground up to tow as much as you need to get the job done.
Is Ford Changing the Super Duty in 2024?
No, Ford is not changing the Super Duty in 2024. This is because the truck received a major update in 2023 and marked the start of a new generation. This means that this is largely a maintenance year as Ford fixes any issues they had with the release of the new Super Duty without implanting any changes.
Although the Super Duty did not change in 2024, the F-150 received a large refresh and received a plethora of changes. If you want to read more on the updates the smaller sized pickup received check out your 2024 Ford F-150 article. Many of these changes may be instituted on the Super Duty within the near future, most likely in a couple of years.
Thankfully the 2024 model year the Super Duty still retains the highest towing capacity in the segment at 40,000 pounds. The Ram HD truck can tow up to 37,090 pounds and the Chevy HD truck tows up to 36,000 pounds. This means that if you own a Ford Super Duty you have a leg up on other HD trucks with better towing capacity. The truck also now has Smart Hitch. This new feature estimates weight being towed and offers guidance on tongue weight distribution.
When can you order a 2024 F-350?

The Super Duty offers two engine types, gas or diesel.
Many consumers lean towards the famed Power Stroke engines for their diesel capability. This engine is massive displacing 6.7 liters with 8 cylinders and can put out either 475 or 500 horsepower. Respectively they also have 1050 or 1200 pound-feet of torque. With the High Output Power Stroke you are able to make it up to 40,000 pounds of towing capacity with a gooseneck trailer.
The base gas engine is only standard on the XL and is a 6.8 liter V8 with 400 horsepower and 445 pound-feet of torque. On all other trims the standard engine is a 7.3 liter V8 with 430 horses and 485 pound-feet of torque. If you do not throw a gooseneck trailer and opt for a regular tow hitch the Super Duty can tow up to 13,700 pounds.
How big is the gas tank on a 2024 F-250?
The gas tank on a 2025 F-250 can hold up to 48 gallons of gas. Depending on which state you live in that might be quite a hefty bill. For those workers and individuals who need an HD truck to haul, this is just another cost that gets rolled into the whole process. Opting for a diesel engine might mean you have to pay more at the pump but with better fuel economy you can save a little bit more money in the long run.

The competition between Ram, Chevy, GMC and Ford makes it so this truck has to perform, which it does with style. Call us today to see what engine and trim combination works for you.
