Coolest Feature: A hidden, integrated TailGate Step option that slides out of the lowered tailgate and flips down for easy access to the cargo bed. A grab bar folds up for added convenience.
Families Will Love: The convenient stowable bed extender that folds in half and to the side when not needed, and the optional Rapid Heat supplemental cab heater that provides quicker-than-normal warmup on cold mornings.
Top Amenities: The new 6.4L, twin-turbocharged PowerStroke diesel engine — Ford’s cleanest and quietest truck diesel to date; PowerScope side mirrors that fold and telescope at the push of a
button; TowCommand and TorqShift systems for improved towing performance; rearview video camera for simple trailer hookups.
Maximum Towing Capacity: 16,000 lbs. (24,000 lbs. with a fifth wheel)
Base Price: $39,205
Best Reason To Buy: The all-new F-450’s towing capacity of 16,000 pounds for a conventional trailer is the best tow rating ever for a non-commercial-grade pickup truck.
