2017 Ford F-Series Super Duty first view

Thanks to aluminium-alloy bodywork and a high-strength steel chassis, Ford says the all-new 2017 F-Series Super Duty is up to 158 kg (350 lbs) lighter than its predecessor. Obviously, that kind of diet benefits both payload and towing capabilities.

When sales begin late next year, customers will have a choice of five trim grades offered in Regular Cab, SuperCab or Crew Cab configurations.

Buyer decisions won’t stop there, though. That’s because the engine line-up comprises 6.2 litre V8 gasoline and 6.7 litre V8 diesel units, with a 6.8 litre V10 gasoline motor augmenting the selection for chassis-cab variants.

In terms of available equipment, technology and gadgets seem to have been a primary focus.

As well as a touchscreen-controlled Sync 3 infotainment system, the list includes LED headlamps and taillights, 360° cameras, a high-mounted cargo box camera, adaptive cruise control, tyre pressure monitoring and a radar-based blind spot warning device that knows when a trailer is being towed.

Final specifications and prices for the 2017 F-Series Super Duty have yet to be announced.
