When should I use engine exhaust braking? 

Engine exhaust braking provides extra stopping power, making it useful for driving while towing heavy loads, when driving on steep grades, or while hauling heavy payloads. If you often travel with heavy gear or live in a hilly area, engine exhaust braking will afford you that extra peace of mind.  

Which trim levels of the 2024 Super Duty offer engine exhaust braking? 

Trim levels equipped with the 6.7 L Power Stroke ® Turbo Diesel engine come with driver-activated engine-exhaust brakes. This engine is available on all F-350 Super Duty trim levels. You can always turn off the engine exhaust braking if you prefer not to use it. 

What does the engine exhaust braking system do? 

This system restricts exhaust flow to create back pressure, which slows the vehicle. This reduces the use of friction brakes, helping your vehicle’s brakes last longer. Furthermore, this type of braking can powerfully slow down your car, even when traveling downhill with a trailer attached.
