Ford F-250

EPA MPG: NA

RECALL ALERT:
There are 12 recalls on this vehicle. Learn More.

CR's Take
A heavy duty good for 3/4 ton capacity as opposed to the 1/2 ton of the F-150. The Super Duty doesn't get the 2004 redesign until later. The ride is stiff and bouncy. The new 6.0-liter Diesel packs some real punch and is fairly quiet and free of vibration. Stepping into the cabin is more difficult because of the high floor.
