Towing, hauling, off-roading in the 2017 Ford Super Duty

July 28, 2016
DENVER, CO. This week members of the press had the chance to haul 30,000-lb. loads (CDL holders only), test out driver safety features and 360-degree cameras, and do a little off-roading in Ford’s All-New 2017 Super Duty. The new truck is the first new Super Duty since the 1999 model and features a new, light-weight aluminum alloy cab and box that saves up to 350 lbs., translating into payload savings for fleets.
