2022 Ford F-250 Super Duty Review

Price Range: $35,590 - $69,996

Ford F-250 Super Duty King Ranch Crew Cab Pickup Exterior Shown

The 2022 Ford F-250 Super Duty has an appropriately brawny look for a heavy-duty pickup, and Ford backs it up with strong towing and hauling performance. Inside, the crew cab treats occupants to plenty of space and decent amenities, but Ram still leads by a large margin in this area.

For 2022, Ford improves the F-250 with a new Sync 4 infotainment system. Standard on most trim levels, Sync 4 includes a 12-inch touchscreen display, natural voice recognition technology, wireless smartphone integration, and connected services including navigation. Additionally, Ford makes four-wheel drive standard on half the F-250 lineup this year, and adds new XLT Black Appearance package and Lariat Sport Appearance packages to the options list.

Conventional towing capacity measures 20,000 pounds, while maximum gooseneck/fifth-wheel capacity is 22,800 pounds. Additionally, the F-250 Super Duty will carry up to 4,260 pounds of payload when it is properly equipped. Also, if you get the optional 6.7-liter Power Stroke turbodiesel V8 engine, know that it cranks out 1,050 lb-ft of torque starting at just 1,600 rpm.

Now that you're familiar with the numbers that matter, be sure to read our full Expert Rating of the 2022 Ford F-250 Super Duty to learn more.

Edmunds Expert Rating

edmunds TESTED

by the Edmunds Experts

Good

7.7

out of 10

We drove the 2022 Ford F-250 Super Duty on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.

Performance

8/10

How does the F-250 Super Duty drive? Our F-250 crew-cab test truck had the optional diesel engine. It provides strong and smooth acceleration in just about any situation. There's a tiny bit of lag before the truck gets going, but the new 10-speed transmission shifts quickly.

Braking performance is disappointing, however. The brakes feel reasonably capable in typical conditions, but our truck took 153 feet to execute a panic stop from 60 mph, which is longer than average for the segment. The steering feels somewhat numb and inert, but the truck does track straight on the open road. This big Ford feels somewhat maneuverable, but there's no hiding its sheer bulk.

Comfort

7.5/10

How comfortable is the F-250 Super Duty? If you have any heavy-duty pickup experience at all, the F-250 will seem sufficiently comfortable. It's not a benchmark by any means, but it does a decent job of keeping occupants happy. It's fairly quiet when it comes to wind and road noise, and the air-conditioning system has no trouble keeping the cabin cool.

It's hard to fault an F-250 for riding firmly when it's not carrying any load. Even though the overall feeling is agreeable enough, it's worth noting that the Ram 2500 is smoother-riding. The F-250's seats are what we're most lukewarm about. They're nicely adjustable and spacious, but the cushions — particularly the seat bottoms — feel flat and don't conform to an occupant's shape very well.

Interior

7.5/10

How’s the interior? No one should be surprised that it takes a big step up to get into this truck. It's tall even for its class. Unfortunately, our test truck didn't come with the relatively inexpensive option of side steps. For an F-250, we'd say those are a must-have.

Inside, there's more than enough space for everyone, and it's easy to fine-tune the positioning of the driver's seat and steering wheel to your liking. All of the relevant controls are within reach and operate as you'd expect them to. As for visibility, the F-250 gives you nice views out thanks to its big windows. All the same, we recommend opting for rear parking sensors and blind-spot monitoring.

Technology

8/10

How’s the tech? Ford's audio and navigation system is built around the Sync 3 interface. The interface is proven and it works, but it no longer stands out. It's missing recent competitor innovations in screen size and menu control. That said, this system does well when it comes to voice recognition support and smartphone integration.

Safety equipment in the F-250 has caught up with most competitors thanks to features such as lane departure warning for the truck and attached trailer, a blind-spot monitor with trailer coverage, and forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking.

Towing and Storage

8/10

How are the towing and storage? The F-250 offers strong towing and hauling capability. Its aluminum body saves weight, and the savings amount to extra payload capacity. In this class, it's all about the numbers, and the Ford can nearly match the Ram 2500 in most cases. Everyday loading, however, is hampered by the bed's tall sides.

Inside, both cargo space in the back half of the crew cab and storage for personal items are quite generous. And while toting kids isn't the first thing you think about when buying a truck, the big crew cab makes it easy to fit car seats of any size. (Getting the kids up and in is another matter.)

Fuel Economy

8/10

How’s the fuel economy? The fuel economy of heavy-duty pickups like the Ford F-250 is a mystery because this class of trucks is exempt from official labeling and testing. We did record fuel consumption over 800 miles of driving, though, and it averaged 16.5 mpg over that distance. Our best tank on a mostly highway route was 18.9 mpg.

Value

7.5/10

Is the F-250 Super Duty a good value? The heavy-duty pickup arms race is in full swing. The F-250's updates for 2020 did quite a bit to catch it up, but it might not be enough. Sure, there's the new 10-speed transmission and more power, but the interior trimmings are still average. Ford's warranty coverage is average, though the diesel engine's coverage lasts for 100,000 miles instead of the 60,000 you get with the gas V8.

Wildcard

7.5/10

All heavy-duty pickups are big, but even among them the Ford F-250 makes a statement. It knows what it is, and the styling is hardly subtle. The driving experience matches that persona. It's no joy to drive, but neither is it a chore. Fun doesn't enter into it. The F-250 is built to work and to do a job, and it delivers on that promise.

2022 Ford F-250 Super Duty trim level differences

The 2022 Ford F-250 Super Duty is available in six trim levels: XL, XLT, Lariat, King Ranch, Platinum and Limited. You can choose between regular-cab, extended-cab (SuperCab) and crew-cab styles with either a 6.75-foot or an 8-foot cargo bed. The XL, XLT and Lariat have standard rear-wheel drive with four-wheel drive available as an option. Four-wheel drive is standard with the King Ranch, Platinum and Limited.

Which F-250 Super Duty trim does Edmunds recommend?

Unless you want a regular-cab configuration, which is offered only with the XL and XLT trims, we recommend the F-250 Lariat. It includes desirable comforts and conveniences coupled with the new Sync 4 infotainment system and helpful driver assist and collision avoidance technologies. Plus, it offers SuperCab and crew-cab configurations in two cab styles with or without four-wheel drive. Choice, thy name is Lariat.

I am glad I bought the F250. After test driving multiple competitor trucks I went with the 2021 Ford F-250. The ride is nice with an interior that is spacious and comfortable. On long trips, the F250 does good on gas mileage with the Diesel engine, which I was surprised for such a big truck. The towing is great with all the features offered by Ford tow assist. As a taller driver, I …
