The 2026 Ford F-350 is the middle child of the F-Series Super Duty pickup family. Its towing and hauling capabilities are superior to those of the F-250 but not the F-450. It's available in single and dual rear-wheel configurations and as a chassis cab ready for job-specific upfitting, but it offers several clever innovations to make even big jobs easier. Pro Trailer Hitch Assist, for example, automatically backs the truck up to a trailer and positions the hitch ball under the receiver at the push of a button. There's also Ford's Onboard Scales feature. It uses sensors to measure suspension squat to estimate the weight in the bed as users load the truck, displaying the approximate payload on the infotainment screen and on the FordPass app.
While the F-350 can be luxurious — particularly in the King Ranch and Platinum trim levels — job one for these trucks is work. In certain configurations, the F-350 can tow up to 28,000 pounds with a conventional bumper-mounted hitch or an outlandish 38,000 pounds with a gooseneck trailer hitch. That's enough to pull the heaviest and biggest of loads, whether it be a recreational camper trailer or a trailer loaded with jobsite construction equipment.
Competitors to consider
The heavy-duty truck segment is the exclusive domain of domestic brands, with the Ram 3500 and the related Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 3500 the only alternatives to the F-350. The Ram's nicest interior tops the Ford's for sumptuousness, but no competitor can beat the F-350's towing and hauling capabilities.
2026 Ford F-350 Super Duty trim level differences
The 2026 Ford F-350 Super Duty comes in five trim levels: XL, XLT, Lariat, King Ranch and Platinum. There are three cab choices — regular cab (two-door), SuperCab (an extended cab with short rear-hinged back doors that can only be opened after the fronts are opened), and crew cab. Crew-cab buyers have a choice of a 6.75-foot or an 8-foot cargo bed; the regular and SuperCab trucks are only available with the long box.
Which F-350 Super Duty trim does Edmunds recommend?
Picking an F-350 largely comes down to what you want out of your heavy-duty truck. But we think many owners will be satisfied with the Lariat. It's nicely equipped with features such as heated and ventilated front seats, a Bang & Olufsen audio system and synthetic leather upholstery, and it's still reasonably priced.
The 2026 Ford F-350 Super Duty has a 3 years / 36,000 miles basic warranty and no recalls. RepairPal gives it a reliability rating of 2.5 out of 5, ranks it #18 out of 19 among Fullsize Trucks. Below you’ll find our owner reviews.

2024 Ford F-350 Super Duty XL 2dr Regular Cab 4WD LB (6.8L 8cyl 10A)
My husband bought a brand new 2024 F350 . He only had it a week with 120 miles on it, and the ac compressor went. Ford knew about this issue but was not prepared. Since there are so many trucks with this issue the compressors are on back order for a month. In the middle of summer. You pay a pretty penny for these trucks and get this

2024 Ford F-350 Super Duty XLT 4dr Crew Cab 4WD LB DRW (7.3L 8cyl 10A)
I have been to the dealer countless times for highway vibrations. They've balanced the tires numerous times and ultimately ended up replacing the tires and still no help. Ford Customer Care is a joke. One service advisor at a different dealer said these trucks all have vibrations and his recommendation is to put 1,000 pounds in the bed in order to get the pinion angle to line up. Good … grief….. thanks for the headache Ford, you lost a 20 year customer. The Ram 3500 I test drove Saturday was silky smooth on the highway

2024 Ford F-350 Super Duty Limited 4dr Crew Cab 4WD LB DRW (6.7L 8cyl Turbodiesel 10A)
Took it to the dealer in Vegas they said this is a on going problem and no compressors are available when I bought it 2 weeks ago there were 5 waiting for compressors. Loosing money every day due to this and no estimate when it will be fixed drove it for 3 days been at dealer ever since. Taillight went out and map system glitchy and passenger window rolls down when it wants.
poor quality F-350

2023 Ford F-350 Super Duty XL 4dr SuperCab LB (6.8L 8cyl 10A)
Ordered new 2023. Day after purchase noticed 3 holes in carpet behind drivers seat. was told that is the way they are built. absolutely ridiculous. 10 1/2 months and still not fixed. Paint has imperfections, dents in roof, DIRT in clear coat in many places .Still trying to get ford to fix. Horrible fit of passenger side door. Still not fixed. Plastic trim above drivers door looks like it … was installed with a ball peen hammer. Overall, very poor quality of paint and finish. Even worse customer service by both the dealership and Ford customer service. Worst vehicle I have ever purchased.
