The Super Duty is the North America Truck of the Year

January 8th, 2024 by

We’re entering the second week of January, but the year-end awards and accolades keep coming for Ford. For the fourth year in a row, Ford trucks was recognized by the North American Car, Utility, and Truck awards committee. This year, the 2024 Ford F-Series Super Duty took home the title of North America Truck of the Year. 

To commemorate the moment, Charles Gabus Ford takes a deeper look at the Super Duty’s latest model – a physical embodiment of the company’s “Built Ford Tough” mentality. 

Power to the People 

Approximately 96% of heavy-duty pickup owners take advantage of their truck’s towing capability. The Super Duty boasts the most eye-catching power specs we’ve seen from a Ford vehicle yet. With its 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 diesel engine leading the charge, the Super Duty boasts the following towing and hauling specs: 

  • 40,000 pounds of towing. 
  • 8,000 pounds of maximum available payload. 
  • 500 horsepower. 
  • 1,200 lb.-ft. of torque. 

Designed to Shine 

The Super Duty is specifically designed to make your daily life more convenient, both on and away from your worksite. Pro Power Onboard lets you charge tools or other electronics via power outlets in the trunk bed – perfect for remote charging while working a job. Meanwhile, integrated box-side steps and rear corner bumper steps are extra wide, enabling you to comfortably climb into the interior or trunk bed. 

The Super Duty exterior comes with a choice of seven unique grille designs, engineered to maximize cooling performance during hauling and towing. The pickup is bookended by state-of-the-art LED headlights and wraparound tail-lamps. The muscular frame holds it all together, a military-grade aluminum-alloy shell. 

Brain in Addition to Brawn 

The interior is outfitted with the latest modern amenities and tech. The 12-inch, customizable digital instrument cluster conveys important data in beautiful, high-res clarity. Together with the available Head-Up Display (HUD), crucial information such as the speed limit is projected onto your windshield, within your line of sight, so that you don’t need to take your eyes off the road for any sustained duration. 

The infotainment console runs on standard SYNC 4 technology that manages your Super Duty tech. With Sync 4, cloud-based connectivity throughout your Super Duty becomes seamless. The Super Duty also supports both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. 

And of course, Ford’s Co-Pilot360 technology offers the latest in increasingly important driver-assist features, including: 

  • Pro Trailer Backup Assist 
  • 360-Degree Camera System 
  • BLIS 
  • Adaptive Cruise Control 
  • Intersection Assist 
  • Pre-Collision Assist
