Some of Our Favorite Features of the 2025 Ford F-350

Professionals know you don’t get a second chance in life, so every day must count to the fullest and be thoroughly reflected in your work. If you depend on a powerful truck to move your career forward, it’s a truck that needs to be built upon the principle that first impressions are key. That’s because manufacturers know that professionals recognize quality, and it must be a truck you feel confident will provide you with everything you and your business need to succeed. This is how we’d describe the 2025 Ford F-350. However, you should know a few things about the truck before heading out and taking one for a test drive here at DePaula Ford, so let’s take a closer look.

A Wide Range of Engines and Capabilities

The first thing worth learning about the 2025 Ford F-350 before you shop for one is which powertrain best suits your needs. The 2025 F-350 is one of the most powerful vehicles on the market, especially with its higher-tier powertrains. Every available engine pairs with a 10-speed automatic transmission for pleasant acceleration that gives a strong kick with any of the four powertrains. The base engine is a 6.8L V8 engine creating 405 hp and 445 lb-ft of torque, with a maximum towing capacity of 18,900 lbs and a class-leading 8,000 lb payload capacity.

Depending on what line of work you’re in, the base engine may be everything you need. However, some professions require immense towing strength, especially if you have clients relying on your professionalism to be on time with the tools you need to complete the tasks you know best. For extra power from your truck, three alternative powertrains are available, one of which runs on gasoline like the base engine: the 7.3L V8 engine. 

The 7.3L V8 engine is nicknamed “Godzilla,” and it’s not hard to see why with its roaring performance. If you wish to stick with gasoline as your primary fuel source, the 7.3L V8 is very powerful and is the best choice for towing performance without switching to diesel. With the Godzilla engine under the hood, the 2025 Ford F-350 produces 430 hp and 485 lb-ft of torque. That may not sound like a monstrous upgrade over what the 6.8L V8 engine delivers, but you can tow cargo weighing up to 22,500 lbs, which is roughly 19% more than the base V8 engine. 

Now we’re stepping up to the diesel powertrains, so how do they look? The two diesel-powered engines use the same 6.7L displacement and are turbo-diesel V8 engines. However, separating the two is one of them being a high-output diesel engine. Before we talk about the high-output variant, the regular 6.7L turbo-diesel V8 engine outputs 475 hp and 1,050 lb-ft of torque. This also increases the towing capacity up to a staggering 36,400 lbs. Hold your horses because it gets even better. While the 2024 model saw a towing capacity difference of only 300 lbs between the regular and high-output turbo-diesel engines, the difference between the two in the 2025 model is 1,600 lbs, leading the F-350 to a commanding maximum towing capacity of 38,000 lbs.

Harmonized Tech 

When the 2025 Ford F-350 is in action, everything works together to create a harmony of professionalism and practicality. The power afforded by a Ford Super Duty truck is universally praised. Nowadays, trucks should be equipped to handle tasks in more conveniently managed ways, and the 2025 F-350 passes with flying colors. An example is trailering tech, with features like the Turn Signal Camera View and Pro Trailer Hitch Assist proving especially useful during the workday. 

Where features like Pro Trailer Hitch Assist and the Turn Signal Camera View harmonize with the rest of the truck is in its display technology. The 2025 F-350 comes standard with an 8-inch SYNC 4 infotainment center, with an available 12-inch screen on certain trims. Both infotainment centers are stuffed with features, including wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, but the screen is used for other tech, like Pro Trailer Hitch Assist and the Turn Signal Camera View. If equipped with the former, your screen will show you a blind spot view to ensure you won’t side-swipe another vehicle with your truck or trailer when turning on a turn signal. 

We keep mentioning Pro Trailer Hitch Assist, so what is it? The 2025 F-350 is the truck for the working class because it makes the workday smoother by automating processes in ways you’ve only dreamt about. This includes lining up your truck’s trailer hitch to your trailer. Putting the 2025 F-350 in reverse activates the rearview camera, which is also displayed on whichever size infotainment center you have installed. If you’re reversing up to a trailer, your F-350 recognizes this, and at your command, the truck will do everything for you—steer to properly align your truck, reverse, and stop.

Pro Trailer Backup Assist is another feature that makes more parts of the workday trivial. Reversing your truck with a trailer attached takes getting used to, and even the most experienced truck drivers, as much as they can do it with ease, would love nothing more than to make it an easier task. Traditionally, reversing with a trailer means turning your steering wheel left or right and beginning reversing, which also begins to turn your truck. If you have Pro Trailer Backup Assist, you simply turn a knob left or right and begin reversing, keeping an eye on the rearview camera.

The 2025 F-350 is available with more than one camera if you opt for the 360-degree camera system. With the 360-degree camera system, it’ll use the feeds from the other surrounding cameras to produce a birds-eye image. Aside from the cameras, the F-350 makes work easier in unique ways, like the onboard scales, and other trailering tech to make carrying heavy loads easier. 

Although the F-350 has class-leading payload performance, it’s important to know how much weight you’re placing onto your truck’s bed. Your truck will recognize how much weight is stored and display the rating on your eight or 12-inch infotainment center screen. For businesses, this is crucial information because unknowingly putting too much strain on the work truck is bad for longevity. Between the fantastic features harmoniously working together to create a ballet of versatility and capabilities, the F-350 remains one of the most revolutionary pickup trucks and is the perfect gateway between yourself and a less stressful workday. 

Truck Bed Options and Cargo Space

Let’s discuss cargo because you’ll find excellent use out of the 2025 F-350’s available cargo space. When purchasing this year’s F-350, you have two options for which size bed you want. The smallest bed you can attach to an F-350 is a 6.8-ft bed, which carries an impressive cargo capacity of 65.4 cu.ft. With the shorter bed attached, you’ll have plenty of space for the work tools, and as you’ve learned, the payload capacity of the F-350 is anything but a limiting factor.

Buying a 2025 Ford F-350 with the long bed option, which is an 8.2-ft long bed, is a great choice because cargo space is tremendous. And, coupled with the class-leading towing and payload capabilities we’ve mentioned, you’re getting the penultimate Ford Super Duty experience. If your truck has the 8.2-ft long bed, you’ll have 78.5 cu.ft. of available cargo space, beating even the 2025 Ram 3500.
