Used 2020 Ford F-250 Super Duty Crew Cab Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2020 Ford F-250 Super Duty is a full-size, heavy-duty pickup available in six trim levels: XL, XLT, Lariat, King Ranch, Platinum and Limited. It can be configured as a regular cab, an extended cab (aka SuperCab), or a crew cab with either a 6.8- or an 8.2-foot bed length.

The F-250 offers a trio of engines. There are a 6.2-liter gasoline V8 (385 horsepower, 430 lb-ft of torque) that pairs with a six-speed automatic transmission and a new-for-2020 7.3-liter V8 (430 hp, 475 lb-ft) and 10-speed automatic transmission package. The F-250's turbocharged diesel V8 engine returns, but now it's making 475 hp and a stump-pulling 1,050 lb-ft of torque. It also pairs with the new 10-speed transmission.

Rear-wheel drive is standard on all models, and four-wheel drive is offered as an option.

Base XL models are standard-issue heavy-duty work trucks and come with handy features such as telescoping tow mirrors, a removable locking tailgate and a trailer tow package. Cabin features are pretty bare-bones but include air conditioning, vinyl upholstery, manual windows, a rearview camera, and a four-speaker audio system.

Moving up to the XLT introduces more comfort and convenience features such as power-adjustable heated mirrors, cloth upholstery, power windows, cruise control, a USB connection, and the Sync 3 infotainment system with an 8-inch touchscreen and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration.

The midrange Lariat offers more convenience and comes closest to the ideal balance of "heavy-duty family truck." But if you're feeling indulgent, you'll want to consider the Platinum or Limited trim. Platinum trims come with an assortment of luxury comforts such as power-retractable side steps, a power tailgate, multicontour front seats, and adaptive cruise control. Limited trims go all-in with features such as a panoramic sunroof and a two-tone leather interior.

If you're a fan of cowboy or ranch life, consider the King Ranch. It's only available on crew-cab models but adds unique Western-themed trim and styling details as well as luxury appointments. We're talking upgraded leather upholstery, power-adjustable pedals and a heated steering wheel among other items.

Many standard features on upper trim levels are offered as options on the rest of the lineup. Notable options include a heavy-duty trailer tow package (paired with the turbodiesel engine), a massive 48-gallon fuel tank, different axle ratios, and an Ultimate Trailer Tow Camera System with a total of seven cameras.

New for 2020 is the off-road-oriented Tremor package, with large tires, specialized front suspension, and various rock and terrain crawling modes.

Which F-250 Super Duty trim does Edmunds recommend?

Buying a heavy-duty pickup comes down to finding the features that best suit your work or family life or both. But the XLT is a good place to start, offering a respectable list of standard features and plenty of options to suit specific needs. The XLT is also available in pretty much every bed and cab configuration.
