Finding a truck that can tow confidently and reliably is easy once you discover the Ford truck lineup. But which one is perfect for your lifestyle? Here’s a list that you can use to help you make your decision regarding the best Ford trucks for towing.
Super Duty
If you’re looking for the most truck with the most muscle, only the Ford Super Duty will do. That goes double if you’re planning on gooseneck or fifth-wheel towing.
Properly equipped, the 2019 Super Duty can handle up to 21,000 pounds for conventional towing, 27,500 pounds with fifth-wheel towing, and an amazing 35,000 pounds with gooseneck towing. It achieves these impressive numbers through the strength of its 6.7-liter Power Stroke turbo diesel engine, which produces best-in-class 450 horsepower and 935 pound-feet of torque. But if you want a gas-powered truck, the 6.2-liter V-8 is a capable workhorse as well.
Use the trailer reverse guidance system to back your trailer up with ease. This system uses cameras to look at both sides of your trailer, so you can back up through the tightest spots. The tire pressure monitoring system keeps tabs on the health of your truck’s and your trailer’s tires. The 2019 Super Duty 450 is your new best friend on the worksite.
F-150
For a midsize truck that can handle what your lifestyle throws at it, check out the 2020 F-150. Its 13,200-pound maximum towing capacity is more than enough to take on small jobs and tow what you need for your adventure.
Like the Super Duty, the new F-150 is loaded with towing features that make hauling easier than ever. The Pro Trailer Backup Assist system lets you rotate a knob to tell your truck where you want your trailer to go and it helps your aim as you back up. The factory-installed trailer brake helps you maintain ultimate control over your trailer. These and the many other useful smart towing features take your trips to the next level.
One of the reasons why the F-150 has been the number-one selling truck in America for decades is its great mix of practicality and strength. If you’re not hauling major loads, it’s strong enough to handle your life, whether you’re on the clock or at the campsite.
Ranger
Looking for a truck that can handle your active lifestyle? Check out the 2019 Ford Ranger. It can be loaded with an impressive array of off-road features that make it one of the most useful towing pickups when the road runs out of payment.
Properly equipped, the 2019 Ranger can handle up to 7,500 pounds with a conventional towing hitch. Its high-strength steel frame, powerful engine, and four-wheel drivetrain give it all it needs to tow ATVs, dirt bikes, small boats — whatever you need to make your weekend warrior trips the best they can be.
