Ford Light-Duty vs. Heavy-Duty Trucks
Ford Light-Duty vs. Heavy-Duty Trucks
So you are looking for a pickup but unsure what size suits you best. Well, you're in luck! In this article, we will tell what the difference is between light and heavy-duty trucks and what each offers regarding capability. An excellent example of a light-duty truck would be the Ford F-150, and a heavy-duty truck would be the Ford F-250 and F-350. There are many advantages to both of these powerful trucks. So please continue reading to see how they compare to help you make the best choice for your lifestyle.
Light Duty Trucks
Light-duty trucks, like the Ford F-150, are more generalized and versatile. They compose a large portion of the pickup segment. Most shoppers who buy light-duty trucks plan to use them for home projects like hauling ATVs, small boats, and trailers. Most light-duty trucks have a payload capacity that ranges from 1,500 pounds to 3,000 pounds and a towing capacity of around 12,000 pounds. The Ford F-150 is capable of towing whatever weekend toy you have.
Heavy-Duty Trucks
Heavy-duty trucks, like the Ford F-250, are specialized for heavy-duty tasks such as towing large construction equipment, bigger boats, and many other commercial equipments. Most heavy-duty trucks come with either gas or diesel engines and enhanced transmissions because these pickups are designed for towing huge loads. These pickups typically have a towing capacity of well over 20,000 pounds. They also offer payload capacities of well over 6,500 pounds.
Ford F-150
The Ford F-150 is America's best-selling vehicle for good reasons. It does almost everything you could want a full-size truck to do, with class-leading towing and hauling capabilities, impressive off-road chops when properly equipped, and an impractical and upscale interior. You don't have time to worry if you can haul something; you have the stuff to pull and need a truck with the muscle to do it. The Ford F-150 has 14,000 pounds of available towing capacity. Reducing weight is an effective way to increase payload. The F-150 body and bed are built of lightweight, high military-grade solid aluminum alloy. When you add power from the legendary available Ford 5.0L V8, you can get a payload rating of 3,310 pounds.
Ford Super Duty
One truck in America is the tool of choice for how we get things done. It's our most capable and brightest Super Duty pickup ever. When you have tons of towing capability, having the brute force to back you up makes the job much easier. Matched with enormous towing and payload power ratings, Super Duty trucks reign supreme. When you're the only truck on site that can move mountains of steel and lumber, other truck owners take notice. That is because you own the best-in-class title with an available diesel gooseneck towing rating of 40,000 pounds. Ford Super Duty trucks have the best maximum diesel conventional towing capacity of 30,000 pounds. A ridiculously strong boxed frame and mighty engines contribute to the best-in-class payload of 8,000 pounds.
