Performance & Capability

At the heart of this workhorse is the Power Stroke 6.7L V8 DI 32V OHV Turbodiesel engine, paired with a smooth-shifting 10-Speed Automatic TorqShift transmission. Featuring an iron engine block, longitudinal mounting, and an Engine Block Heater, this powertrain is built to operate reliably in harsh conditions. Grounded by a Four Wheel Drive system with an electronic shift transfer case, mono-beam rigid front axle, heavy-duty rear leaf springs, and heavy-duty gas-pressurized shock absorbers, it maintains stable traction across challenging jobsites. Performance capability is enhanced by the Payload Plus Package Upgrade 2, bringing an 18,000 lbs GVWR Payload Package alongside a 4.30 Ratio Limited Slip Axle. For winter operations, the factory-installed Snow Plow Prep Package includes heavy-duty front springs and dedicated snow plow provisions. Fleet utility is further supported by an underbody Skid Plate, a 410 Amp Dual Alternator, a PTO transmission provision, platform running boards, and 19.5-inch argent painted steel wheels fitted with 225/70R19.5G BSW MAX TRAC Tires.

Technology & Connectivity

Inside the cab, practical work-ready technology keeps drivers connected and in control throughout the workday. Central control is anchored by SYNC 4 with an 8in Center Display, supported by an integrated 5G Modem Ford Connectivity Package that provides seamless mobile hotspot internet access. The system supports hands-free wireless device connectivity and smart device wireless mirroring, allowing easy navigation and communication without taking your eyes off the road. Convenient Upfitter Switches located overhead allow easy electrical integration for auxiliary lights, hydraulic lifts, or custom equipment. Jobsite utility gets a boost with Pro Power Onboard - 400W, providing 120V AC power directly inside the cabin. A Rear View Camera & Prep Kit aids in precise positioning, while the integrated Trailer Brake Controller ensures synchronized stopping power when hauling heavy machinery.
