Ford 2017 F-Series Super Duty

The all-new 2017 F-Series Super Duty pickup is Ford’s toughest,

smartest and most capable pickup Super Duty ever and part of

Ford F-Series, America’s best-selling #truck for 39 straight years.

Ford engineers improved the Super Duty chassis cab with

advanced materials, making the frame out of high-strength steel

and the body out of high-strength, military-grade, aluminum alloy.

The result is up to 350 pounds of weight savings with additionalweight savings reinvested everywhere it counts, giving customers

more towing and hauling capability than ever before. Components

such as axles, hubs and brakes are larger and stronger to support

work demands.

The all-new, high-strength steel frame is engineered with an open-

C-channel design behind the cab to enable easy aftermarket body

upfit and modification. The all-new frame is made of more than 95

percent high-strength steel and fully boxed from the front to the

back of the cab, and an open C-channel extends all the way behind

the cab to accommodate vocational needs and aftermarket body

builders.

Fleet operators and commercial upfitters will find it easier to

connect electrical equipment to the #truck. An all-new smart

Controller Area Network (CAN) interface allows upfitters to more

easily integrate upgrades to meet their customers’ needs, with six

auxiliary upfitter switches available to operate a variety of powered

options, such as lights, compressors or other power equipment.

Three Super Duty chassis cab engine choices give customers the

power of choice, including a 6.2-liter gasoline V8, 6.8-liter gasoline

V10, or 6.7-liter Power Stroke turbo diesel V8.
