Ford F-250

Model years 2018–2027

The Ford F-250 is a heavy-duty pickup truck nameplate from Ford, designed for commercial work, towing and hauling. Across its model years, cab and bed choices, engines, drivetrains, payload, towing ratings and equipment can vary substantially. Shoppers should compare the exact year and trim because specifications, features, recalls, known problems and ownership costs can change over time.
