Heavy-Duty Truck Comparison
With three primary models available, the 2023 Super Duty® lineup brings plenty of added benefits to the table compared to the Chevrolet Silverado HD and Ram heavy-duty lineup. Below, you'll find a short breakdown of some of the most attractive features our community prefers when shopping for new Ford trucks. If you have any questions or want to learn more about a specific feature, don't hesitate to contact our sales team online, over the phone, or in person.
Diesel Output
Whether you spend time on the street or out in the countryside, having enough horsepower and torque to help you breeze through heavy loads is necessary for working hard and playing harder. Every Super Duty® truck, including the Ford F-250, is available with a stunning 6.7-liter High Output Power Stroke® V8 turbo diesel engine that produces up to 500 horsepower and 1,200 pound-feet of torque.
In comparison, the 2023 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD and Silverado 3500 HD are only available with up to 445 horsepower and 910 pound-feet of torque, while the 2023 Ram 3500 comes close with its high-output diesel rating of 420 horsepower and 1,075 pound-feet of torque. Unfortunately, the 2023 Ram 2500 is the worst off with its 370 horsepower and 850 pound-feet of torque, making the Super Duty® lineup the preferred choice for optimal horsepower and torque.
Media Technology
Featuring modern technology with intuitive controls, the Ford Super Duty® lineup offers a 12.0-inch SYNC® 4 infotainment system in a familiar landscape format, leaving room for climate and accessory functions below. While the 2023 Ram 2500 and 2023 Ram 3500 also offer a 12.0-inch touchscreen, it's only available in a portrait format that integrates climate control functions into the screen, potentially adding another distraction to the cabin.
And while the 2023 Chevrolet Silverado HD lineup features standard Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ support, the Silverado 2500 HD and Silverado 3500 HD are only available with up to an 8.0-inch touchscreen system that feels antiquated. From cruising city streets to adventuring across the state, the Ford Super Duty® delivers premium connectivity features that help you stay connected on the go.
Work Capability
When you're getting ready to haul heavy machinery or tow your favorite camper trailer into the wilderness, there's no doubt you'll need a stout truck with plenty of towing capacity. Although the 2023 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD offers up to 36,000 pounds of maximum towing capacity and the 2023 Ram 3500 features up to 37,090 pounds of maximum towing capacity, they both fall behind the incredible 2023 Ford F-350 with up to 38,000 pounds of maximum towing capacity.
In addition, the Ford F-450 delivers an increased maximum towing capacity of up to 40,000 pounds, making the Ford Super Duty an unparalleled choice for your next tow rig. Multiple rear-axle ratio choices allow you to tailor your truck for optimized performance on pavement or off-road.
