Which Ford Truck Is Best for Towing?

If towing strength tops your list, thenew Ford Super Duty® lineup -- including F-250 trucks and F-350 duallies -- sets the benchmark for power and reliability. Built for serious hauling, these trucks are equipped to tow as much as 40,000 pounds.

They move such massive weight with confidence thanks to impressive diesel and gas engine options and cutting-edge trailering technology and chassis design. If you need reliable HD performance mile after mile, buy a new Super Duty® in Marshall.

H2 Tag: Which Tows More, the F-250 or F-350?

The F-350 is the higher-rated Ford truck by towing capacity. When you buy a new Ford F-350 near Olney, you'll be able to pull a maximum of 38,000 pounds. The new Ford F-250, for context, can tow up to 23,000 pounds. With numbers like this, no wonder both F-250 and F-350 trucks in Illinois set the bar among their peers. Both are excellent options depending on how much weight you need to tow.

H2 Tag: What's the Difference Between the F-350 and F-250?

The biggest difference between the F-350 and the F-250 is the availability of dual rear wheels on the former model, which can help better distribute fifth-wheel trailer weight compared to trucks running a traditional two-wheel setup on the rear axle. Factor in heavier-duty components to support the higher tow rating and built to rival pure commercial vehicles in terms of capability -- all while delivering modern comfort and connectivity.

How Much Can a New Ford F-150 Tow?

The new Ford F-150 in Marshall can tow up to 13,500 pounds, and would be our pick if you don't heavy-duty capability. It's a true jack-of-all-trades truck not just because of its great specs sheet, but because it has the breadth of trims, engine options and build configurations to meet the needs of almost any buyer whose needs don't require more than five or six tons of towing capacity. We especially recommend the F-150 to commuters, weekend adventurers, handymen, tradespeople with light-duty needs and others who need their truck to do anything and everything.
