- Spacious cabs offer many convenience and technology options
- Price tag soars with options
- New 7.3-liter gasoline V8 added to the lineup

Alongside its Ram 3500 and Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD rivals, the 2020 Ford F-350 Super Duty brings the muscle to the pickup market. The 2020 Ford F-350 is very similar to the F-250 in design and driving character. They have the same powerful engines options and generally the same standard and optional features. The biggest difference is the F-350's upgraded capability.
This year's Super Duty has new engine and transmission combos that now provide more than 24,000 pounds of conventional trailer towing capacity. Then you have a cab full of tech comforts, such as voice-controlled infotainment and a Wi-Fi hotspot, available leather interiors, even cooled front seats and ambient lighting. One thing's for sure: Today's heavy-duty truck no longer needs to be limited to the job site.
The Super Duty also gets a new off-road package called the Tremor, which is a step up from the existing FX4 package. The Tremor package upgrades start with a 2-inch front lift and shorter airdam, followed by 35-inch Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac all-terrain tires. It also includes a retuned suspension, upgraded shock absorbers, a locking rear differential, a limited-slip front differential, a rock-crawl mode, and low-speed cruise control. The skid plates from the FX4 package are also included.
In total, the 2020 F-350 continues the trend of bringing a friendly and accessible experience to heavy-duty trucks. Certainly, you have options. The Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD and GMC Sierra 2500HD twins have been redesigned for 2020, and Ram redid its 3500 just last year. But even though the Ford F-350 Super Duty isn't the freshest choice, it remains a compelling pick if you want a truck that can do just about anything.
Which F-350 Super Duty does Edmunds recommend?
The cost of an F-350 can easily get out of control. That's why we like the XLT, which adds many helpful safety features for a reasonable price. It offers more configurations than other trims too, so you can find the exact size and capability you need.
Ford F-350 Super Duty models
The Ford Super Duty F-350 is a full-size heavy-duty pickup truck. It comes in six trims: 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.

5/5 stars, Great truck for hauling large trailers
Cory,
King Ranch 4dr Crew Cab 4WD SB (6.2L 8cyl 10A)
Very impressed with the comfort and capabilities of my truck. Pulls my 42’ 16k fifth wheel like there’s nothing there.
4/5 stars, Unlimited power and crazy acceleration
Brian,
Platinum 4dr Crew Cab 4WD SB (6.2L 8cyl 10A)
Upgrading from a 2012KR 6.7 to a new Platinum 6.7 has been a very pleasant experience, the new 2020 is much more planted on the road unless you hit a series of large bumps in the road, the adaptive steering makes highway speeds much safer and adaptive cruise and Blind spot detection are useful additions (although BLIS doesn't work on goose-necks)
This thing is dangerously fast, avoiding tickets will be a problem, mostly because the noise is so much less than the older trucks and its much more solid feeling at speed.
Interior is improved over the 2012, but the real difference is the electronics, phone pairs effortlessly, navigation and ford compatible apps work well enough (although the fordpass app itself is pretty awful) android auto works well and i spend most of my time there.
A nice feature I didn't expect to use, but have, is the WiFi hot spot, I enabled it in the truck and it has much better reception than my phone, so even in some otherwise poor reception areas I can still get calls using Voice over WiFi on my S20+
The downside to this behemoth with a 3500lb load capacity is the brakes, both the engine brake and the disc brakes aren't really up to par with the engine.. you could find yourself at the top of a hill that will be very difficult to get down. I've not had any personal problems halting this thing, but it does take a while and riding the engine brake down mountain roads isn't always enough, meaning the brakes may be over temperature at the bottom of the grapevine in LA for example.
Four stars only because of the "at max" braking concerns, but still the best 2020 truck available, 5* would be easy with some simple upgrades.
5/5 stars, Monster of a truck!
AK Man F350,
Limited 4dr Crew Cab 4WD LB (6.7L 8cyl Turbodiesel 10A)
I have previously had a 2016 F350 with the 6.2l as well as a 2019 F150. I traded back into the Super Duty segment with the new 2020 F350 Lariat 6.7l Diesel engine. Running two months in and overall no issues. Averaging 17.9 mpg using #1 diesel during winter months here with mixed hwy/city driving.
This truck has more power than most people need but its nice knowing it’s there. The torque is just astounding. With the Lariat level, I feel overall quality of interior is excellent and I enjoy all of the technology features that have come out in recent years. I don’t know how I lived without adaptive cruise control.
The overall look of the truck is top notch and I feel stands above the rest of the competition. Interior could be improved but overall is very nice.
Definitely love my super duty.
5/5 stars, TOP OF THE LINE.... PERIOD
Pat,
Limited 4dr Crew Cab 4WD LB DRW (6.7L 8cyl Turbodiesel 10A)
The Lariat 6.7 Diesel loaded has it all. Anyone who finds fault ? Probably can't afford it. The list regarding everything this ride has is too long. From working hard, looking great, to driving to your favorite restaurant. All the tech.& luxury you could ever want, & back to your work-site.

Ford F-350 Super Duty vs. the competition
2020 Ford F-350 Super Duty
2020 Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD
Ford F-350 Super Duty vs. Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD
The toughest of the Chevrolet Silverado models, the 3500HD, is a highly capable beast. Go with the Silverado and you'll snag some impressive towing features such as a multiview trailer camera system and newer styling than the F-350's. Picking between these two trucks will be tough.
Ford F-350 Super Duty vs. Ram 3500
The Ram 3500 offers all the available trims and configurations you'd expect, plus the towing prowess to match. Yet you might not be expecting such a luxury-oriented cab. The Ram 3500 can be optioned up with high-quality leather, intricate stitching, and a 12-inch infotainment tablet-style center screen. It also gets Ram's trademark hidden storage systems that come in handy on a job site.
Ford F-350 Super Duty vs. GMC Sierra 3500HD
The GMC version of the Chevrolet Silverado gets all of the bits we like: powerful engines, a capable bed, and lots of towing technology. And for a luxury-focused vehicle, the Sierra 3500HD doesn't offer the same interior quality as the Ram, and many features standard on competitors have to be added at extra cost. But you can choose the off-road AT4 trim as a rival to the F-350 Tremor.
