Flagship vehicles are the crown jewel of every automotive manufacturer, and the 2025 Ford F-350 is the rule, not the exception. Ford has been atop the charts of best-selling trucks for decades, and the reasoning behind this is simple: buying a Ford truck means you're getting great results in everything you do on the road. Business owners should consider the F-350 because it's a truck built for the toughest tasks, keeping your customers on your side, while enthusiasts would be hard-pressed to find something to hinder their enjoyment of their new super-duty truck. The 2025 F-350 is a grand slam, like its incredible predecessors.
Starting at
The 2025 Ford F-350's performance is handled by strong engines paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. Standard is a 6.8L V8 engine producing a high 405 hp and 445 lb-ft of torque. Equipped with the 6.8L V8 engine under the hood of the most cost-effective F-350, this means an impressive towing capacity of 18,900 lbs, sporting support for Class V tow hitches. A large V8 engine standard is a great start, but it gets better the further you look.
The first alternative engine for the 2025 F-350 is a massive 7.3L V8 engine commonly referred to by its nickname: "Godzilla." A famous engine, the Godzilla V8 is well-known for its excellent towing strengths without relying on alternative fuel like diesel. With the Godzilla engine in your F-350, your truck pushes 430 hp and 485 lb-ft of torque, coupled with a maximum towing capacity of 22,500 lbs. More than a few thousand pounds of towing strength is no joke for a gasoline-powered engine, especially compared to an already beastly V8 engine.
Top-end performance is achieved via the two available turbo-diesel engines—a 6.7L V8 and a high-output version of the same engine. With the regular-output turbo-diesel V8, the 2025 F-350 produces 475 hp and 1,050 lb-ft of torque. Even more impressive is the towing capabilities of the turbo-diesel 6.7L V8 engine, with a maximum towing capacity of 36,400 lbs achieved via the powertrain swap.
As for the high-output turbo-diesel V8 engine, performance is uplifted again, this time to 500 hp and 1,200 lb-ft of torque. Between the base engine and the high-output diesel powertrain, there's a 170% increase in torque, which is also class-leading. Lastly, the 2025 F-350's maximum towing capacity of 38,000 lbs is also best-in-class and results from the high-output turbo-diesel engine.
The 2025 F-350 is one of the most versatile trucks within its model year. For example, off-roading features are available via off-road packages, such as the TREMOR, FX4, and XL off-road packages. The XL off-road package is for the base trim, and it's a great way to improve its capabilities from the factory, with included 17-inch wheels, skid plates to protect the bottom of your truck, a rear electronic locking differential to match the front, and 33-inch tires rated for off-roading. The FX4 off-road package means you'll have fuel-tank protection with an additional skid plate, Hill-Descent Control, which helps you safely traverse down a hill, and exclusive off-roading shocks come with the package.
Equipping your truck with the TREMOR off-road package ensures you're set with the best engine. For regular fuel, the Godzilla engine is available, and for diesel, the high-output turbo-diesel V8 engine. The TREMOR off-road package also adds a dedicated mode to assist with rock crawling, and the rear and front suspensions are specifically crafted for off-road travel. Lastly, the package includes 35-inch all-terrain tires, which are the largest that Ford sells for the truck.
The 2025 Ford F-350 is capable in many ways. Capability is important for a super-duty truck, and the 2025 F-350 is enriched with features designed to improve workflow or simply enhance quality of life. Sporting class-best towing performance and payload capacity is a large win for the 2025 F-350, with the truck's 8,000 lb payload capacity annihilating competitors in its path.
Even with alternative powertrains, the 2025 F-350 remains capable, with the Godzilla engine featuring a payload capacity of 7,635 lbs. With the proper support for heavy cargo not stored in a trailer, nothing stops you and your truck from completing the work day with maximum proficiency. The 2025 F-350 can be equipped with Ford's Pro Power Onboard, which adds power outlets to the wall of your truck's bed, with 2kW of power to charge tools, run generators, power lights, and more. However, with the available LED spotlights, worksites at night are well-illuminated, leaving your Pro Power Onboard outlets for everything else.
The 2025 F-350's available power tailgate is worth considering because it adds layers of capability that are traditionally not standard. For example, with the power tailgate, opening and closing your tailgate can be done remotely or even from the interior. If your truck is equipped with the power tailgate, it'll also have a built-in step you can fold down when needed and then fold up when not in use. Steps are positioned on the corners of the side and back of the bed, which is an exceptionally welcomed quality-of-life benefit. The bed also features an available onboard scale to weigh cargo and display the readings to you on your infotainment center screen while driving.
The two available beds for the 2025 F-350 are 6.8 ft and 8.2 ft long. Both beds offer fantastic cargo space, with the smaller option featuring 65.4 cu.ft. of space and the larger one with 78.5 cu.ft. of space. Professionals like those running self-owned businesses will be set with all the space they need to transport the tools and supplies needed for the job, and the choice between a small and large option gives business owners choices in which one suits the company's needs the best. With the available room for storage coupled with the class-leading towing results, the 2025 F-350 is one of the most capable trucks you can buy.
As the flagship truck in Ford's lineup, the F-350 is built with some of the industry's best tech. Much of the tech inside of the F-350 is designed to make the busy work day less strenuous by assisting you with or automating processes that, even if not considered difficult, can save you time and add much-needed layers of convenience to your day. Other areas of the F-350 reveal tech designed to improve everyday life, and sometimes, these features are directly connected to the ones that make the workday easier.
Every 2025 F-350 is equipped with a SYNC 4 infotainment center with an eight or 12-inch touchscreen that allows for over-the-air updates. With the introduction of over-the-air updates, your SYNC 4 infotainment center's firmware will be updated while the car isn't in use, like when you're sleeping at night. Updating firmware is important in infotainment centers because it ensures you're up-to-date on various features, bug fixes, and security patches, and fortunately, the 2025 F-350 will handle it all in the background.
SYNC 4 is also great for its general usability. With the SYNC 4 infotainment center, the 2025 F-350 is equipped with a 5G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot, featuring a secure internet connection with speeds that far exceed the older 4G Wi-Fi hotspots Ford utilized in the past. Keeping cords at home is another benefit of the SYNC 4 infotainment center as it means every 2025 F-350 is equipped with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Another available screen is the 12-inch Digital Instrument Cluster, which will show you a wide range of customizable info, from your speedometer and fuel tank to trailering information, music selection, and more. Projected onto the glass is an available Head-Up Display, meaning you don't need to take your eyes off the road to visibly see your speed, and it'll also show you the speed limit of the road you're on.
The 2025 F-350 is equipped with plenty of tech that'll help with the workday, including the 360-degree Camera System. If you're driving with a trailer, acknowledging your surroundings is critical. With the 360-degree Camera System, your truck shows you a birds-eye view by cleverly combining a rear-view camera with the feeds from other cameras around the truck's body.
The 360-degree camera will be displayed on the infotainment center, as will the Pro Trailer Hitch Assist camera feed, which you'll use for your truck to automatically align itself to the trailer once it's detected. Pro Trailer Backup Assist is available, meaning that steering your trailer in a specific direction isn't handled by the steering wheel anymore but by a knob located next to the start button.
