The extra-tough F-450 comes equipped only as a Crew Cab with an 8-foot bed and dual rear wheels. The standard 6.4L Power Stroke turbo diesel V8, which produces 350 hp and a whopping 650 ft-lb, is paired with a 5 speed automatic transmission. The 6.4L turbo diesel is a new generation engine that uses dual-sequential turbochargers to help improve low-end performance and high-pressure common-rail fuel injection to help reduce emissions; emissions numbers are on par with competing gasoline engines. This Super Duty can tow up to 16, 000 pounds using a conventional trailer hitch. The equipped dual-rear-wheel setup allows for better stability when towing the heaviest trailers. The TowCommand system, which includes a unique trailer-braking strategy that works in conjunction with the Super Duty's anti-lock braking system when it detects poor traction, increases safety when hauling loads. Super Duty's have a fully boxed front frame section, and Ford claims to use the thickest-gauge steel of any pickup in its frame. The luxury-oriented Lariat option adds a limited-slip rear differential, front seats with a center console, an overhead console with storage, power seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel and fog lamps. The rearview camera system, mounted within the rearview mirror, activates when the vehicle is shifted into reverse, using a camera mounted onto the tailgate to help guide drivers in tight-clearance situations. Green lines help guide the driver, marking the width of the vehicle, and they turn red as the truck gets too close to a barrier or object. Another standout feature is the PowerScope power-folding, power-telescoping mirrors, which include a spotter mirror and extend outward an additional 2.75 inches as space permits. Settings for the mirror system are integrated with the seat and pedal-memory system. Vehicle is available for local purchase. We reserve the right to end the auction at any time.
