2002 Ford Super Duty F-250 / F-350

Introduction

In any given situation, at any given moment, there's always one person everyone can count on. Someone with skill, strength and experience. And usually that someone shows up each and every morning driving a truck that's Built Ford Tough. For over 50 years, Ford F-series has been a benchmark for toughness and the best-selling full-sized truck in the U.S. for the last twenty-four years in a row. They are the essential tools America turns to job after job. Built Ford Tough is not just a saying. It is the only way we build each and every one. Year after rugged year.

Tractive Force: How Things Get Done

The concept of Tractive Force is central to the Super Duty's capability. It represents the powertrain's ability to turn raw horsepower into applied force at the tires, crucial for pulling or carrying heavy cargo. Ford engineers design each powertrain to maximize this force, considering the engine (a), torque converter (b), gear ratios (c), differential (d), and even wheel radius and tire size (e). This integrated approach ensures optimal performance, delivering power that can be felt.

Ford trucks leverage Tractive Force to maintain their reputation as America's number one power tool, enabling users to get jobs done, whether for work or play.

Engines and The Power Stroke® Advantage

The Ford Super Duty lineup offers powerful engine options, including the Triton 5.4L V8, the 6.8L Triton V10, and the 7.3L Power Stroke® Diesel V8. The F-350 Super Duty DRW with the Power Stroke Diesel boasts the highest available GVWR in its class. The Power Stroke Diesel is recognized for its torque advantage, selling more than competing diesels, and its turbo-charged design delivers impressive peak power quickly.

The 7.3L Power Stroke® Diesel V8 is noted as the largest in its class, proven in real-world service for low maintenance and backed by a Five Year Limited Warranty. It achieves unsurpassed peak torque at lower RPMs compared to competitors.

The F-250 SuperCab, equipped with the Power Stroke® Diesel V8, offers the highest conventional trailer towing capacity in its class at 12,500 lbs. This capability makes it suitable for heavy-duty tasks, from hauling research equipment to towing trailers loaded with materials.

The F-250 Crew Cab models feature the Triton™ V10 engine with a 4.30 axle ratio, providing substantial towing capability of 12,500 lbs. Ford F-Series trucks have consistently been the best-selling full-size trucks in the U.S. for 24 years, demonstrating their reliability and performance.
