What is the towing capacity of the 2022 Ford Super Duty? That depends on what type of towing you are doing, and we have a chart below that shows the maximum capacities for each type. You can find Ford Super Duty trucks here at Sherwood Ford in Sherwood Park, AB.

What factors influence the towing capacity of a Ford Super Duty truck? 

One of the main things that impact the towing rating of a Ford Super Duty truck is the engine that you choose. In general, the 6.7 L Power Stroke engine and the 7.3 L Gas V8 engine have higher capacities than the 6.2 L Gas V8 engine option. Other factors that may influence the towing rating include the rear axle, meaning whether a vehicle has single-rear-wheels or dual-rear-wheels, and the axle ratio. A higher axle ratio generally converts to a higher towing capacity. 

Which Ford Super Duty truck can tow the highest weight? 

That would be the Ford F-450 Super Duty truck with a 4×2 drivetrain, dual-rear-wheels, a 4.3 axle ratio, and a 6.7 L Power Stroke Turbo-Diesel V8 engine. This truck can achieve the ratings in the chart above. Most people won’t need nearly that much capacity, but if you need a truck for moving heavy equipment, the Ford F-450 Super Duty with the Diesel V8 engine should be your truck.
