Test-Drive the 2021 Ford F-250 Super Duty in Amsterdam Today

The 2021 Ford F-250 has earned its "Super Duty" name, with its power, looks, and features. Known for being best in class for GVWR, horsepower, payload, conventional towing, and 5th-wheel, the Ford F-250 delivers everywhere it counts.

Basics About the 2021 Ford F-250 Super Duty

Released for orders in August 2020, the new Ford F-250 has garnered a lot of attention since its release. The new crew cab pickup truck from Ford is jam-packed with power and features.

Engine

Power in the F-250 is provided by the optional 6.7L Power Stroke V8 Turbo Diesel engine that gives 1,050 lb-ft of torque. The engine comes with a brand new fuel injection system and pistons that results in the truck reaching 475hp at 2,600rpm. If you choose the 7.3L V8 gas engine, you won't be sacrificing anything. The new design optimizes power output and torque in a more durable form and still produces the same 475 horsepower as the diesel engine.

Frame and Chassis

The body of the vehicle is yet another feature that makes the F-250 stand out from its competitors. The truck's body is made from a military-grade aluminum alloy. The alloy doesn't rust and resists dents, while it also is lightweight enough that it doesn't negatively impact speed and drag.

Safety and Cameras

Cameras and sensors are located 360 degrees around the truck providing peace of mind while also helping out with parking, and moving around other vehicles. The Ford Co-Pilot360 system warns drivers before crashes so they can be avoided. The automatic emergency braking system also works to limit damage. The additional blind spot information system works with trailers as well as the pickup so that you can change lanes without fear.

Off-Road Capabilities

The optional Tremor Off-Road Package helps the F-250 capture the title for best full-size pickup in water fording and tire approach angles, meaning that no matter if you're driving along wet trails or across rocky ground, the truck can handle everything that's thrown at it.

Storage

With a choice of two cargo bed sizes, a 6.75-foot or an 8-foot, you won't be running out of places to put your materials and tools anytime soon. For the security conscious, a lockable storage box is located under the rear seat.

The new F-250's starting prices depend on the model you choose:

• XL: $34,230

• XLT: $39,095

• LARIAT: $47,210

• King Ranch: $59,595

Electric Winch

Perfect for work, the F-250 comes with a 70-ft synthetic winch that provides 12,000 pounds of power. It can be controlled by a wireless remote control and its location at the front of the vehicle means you can drag your fellow workers out from muddy sites.

FordPass Connect App

FordPass Connect is yet another gem found in the F-250. When you enter your VIN into the app, you will be able to remotely start your truck and keep track of the mileage, fuel efficiency, and oil life.

Wireless Technology

Revolutionary for new cars, the Ford F-250 comes with a wireless charging pad, a boon for those who can never find a charging cable when it's needed. It maintains your phone charge even when it's in use. The new Wi-Fi hotspot, which provides internet access to 10 devices, also makes life easier for when you're out on the road.

Sync 3 and Alexa

Introducing voice-activated commands to the F-250, Sync 3 and Ford+Alexa improves the safety of the driver by reducing the need for touch. The combination also works to bring in-car navigation to the new Ford, and you can control your smart-home devices from the comfort of the driver's seat. Whichever model you decide on, you will get every cent of your money's worth. Come on down to Brown's Ford of Amsterdam to test drive the new F-250 today.
