Is the Ford F-250 a Good Truck?

Yes, the Ford F-250 is a consistently reliable truck. Here are some reasons this model is so popular among buyers:


  • Range of Engine Options - The Ford F-250 brings you several ways to have the power you want when you take it out for a spin. There are several ways the Ford F-250 is powered on the road. This truck offers the option of a giant 6.7L diesel V8 engine to turbocharge your day or a 7.3L gasoline V8 engine that will give you a good amount of power for average daily driving. Both engine options are good, but you should research which one suits your driving needs best. 
  • Towing Capacity — Do you anticipate needing to tow massive trailers with your Ford truck? If so, consider the F-250, which can pull up to 22,800 pounds when modified with an additional fifth wheel. 
  • Controlled Handling -- The F-250 Steers surprisingly well around corners and in tight spaces. If you need to maneuver you big Ford truk onto a tight street or into a small parking space, you'll be grateful for the F-250s smooth handling. 
  • Bed Options – The F-250 has two bed options to choose from. Making the right decisions is important for truck drivers who need to put their Fords to work. This model comes with the option of a 6.75 foot long bed or an even more useful 8 foot long bed.

Do F-250 Hold their Value?

Yes, the F-250 holds onto its value amazingly, even bringing in big sales for trucks with high mileage!

The F-250 is an outlier, with the Super Duty depreciating only 17% after five years of use!
