When you need a vehicle to tackle the toughest jobs, you can’t go wrong with the Ford F-250 SD. This workhorse is available in six trims, each with its own characteristics to suit different situations. We look at the F-250 lineup to help you decide which model is best for your needs.
Trim Level Breakdown of the Ford F-250 SD
- XL
The lineup starts with the XL, fitted with a powerful 6.8L V8 gas engine paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission to deliver 405 horsepower and 445 pound-feet of torque. Capable of towing up to 17,300 pounds, the XL is ideal for those who want to haul a camper or boat.
The XL is packed with useful trailering features, such as trailer sway control, hill start assist, and a rearview camera. In the cab, you’ll find a tilt and telescoping steering column and the infotainment system, with an eight-inch LCD touchscreen and FordPass Connect with 5G Wi-Fi hotspot.
- XLT
Ford upgrades the engine in the XLT to a 430 horsepower 7.3L gas V8, increasing haulage capacity to 18,200 pounds. It’s also equipped with automatic emergency braking and forward collision warning for additional safety, and driver comfort is enhanced with the introduction of an eight-way power-adjustable seat.
- LARIAT
The LARIAT sticks with the 7.3L V8 but upgrades the exterior with a bright chrome grille and 18″ machined and painted aluminum wheels. Drivers receive a helping hand when towing from a 360-degree camera, trailer tow mirrors, cross-traffic alerts, and reverse guidance. The front seats are heated and ventilated, and the dual-zone climate control ensures all occupants are comfortable.
- King Ranch
Western fans will appreciate the King Ranch with its two-tone coloring, unique logo, and 20-inch bright machine-cast aluminum wheels adorning the outside and the leather features of the interior. Ford introduces a power tailgate, including a tailgate step, down camera, rear park-aid sensors, and chrome tailgate applique.
- Platinum
Black onyx leather seats, a satin aluminum grille, and 20-inch polished aluminum wheels add to the upscale feel of the Platinum. LED fog and projector lamps provide a clear view of the road ahead, even when driving in the thickest fog.
- Limited
Luxury meets power with the F-250 Limited. The interior is decked out in admiral blue and light slate leather, and a moonroof lets the sun and fresh air into the cabin. Thanks to the max-recline driver 10-way power seat and eight-way adjustable passenger seat, front occupants can choose their ultimate comfortable position.
