The 2024 F-550 Super Duty Truck

Ford F-Series Super Duty trucks are the most popular lineup of heavy-duty trucks on the market and the Ford F-550 has a unique role across a variety of different industries. When you need a specialized heavy-duty truck that can be customized for a specific purpose, the Ford F-550 is ready to go to work. Its fundamental body style is a chassis cab and then it's typically sent to an upfitter for extra equipment.

The F-550 is the basic platform for most of the tow trucks, dump trucks, bucket trucks and other specialized vehicles on the road today. Here are some of the highlights of the 2024 Ford F-550 Super Duty truck that's available right now at Ford of Northampton in Northampton, MA.

Customizability

This muscular heavy-duty truck is amazingly customizable so you can buy exactly the Ford F-550 Super Duty truck you need for your business. Most of the customization process comes from upfitting but Ford also gives Westfield and Holyoke business owners a number of essential options including a gasoline engine and a diesel V8 as well as a choice of three different cab configurations.

Performance

The new Ford F-550 comes with a standard 7.3-liter big block V8 engine that can generate 335 horsepower and 468 pound-feet of torque. The V8 is built to be a low-maintenance vehicle and it can idle for long periods of time without damage. If you're moving even heavier equipment, you can move up to the available 6.7-liter diesel V8 that delivers 330 horsepower and an amazing 950 pound-feet of torque.

Both engine options are equipped with a TorqShift® 10-Speed automatic transmission with SelectShift® and you'll have your choice of rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive. Diesel engine models include standard exhaust braking and a massive set of disc brakes that can bring the Ford F-550 to a complete stop over and over without significant risk of overheating. In addition, an integrated trailer brake controller is a standard feature.
