Ford Automaker Honored As North America’s 2024 Truck of the Year

Check it out! The 2024 Ford F-Series Super Duty just clinched the 2024 North American Truck of the Year title, and the reasons are crystal clear!

Tailored for weekend warriors and builders who mean business, this ultimate workhorse will turn life on or off the job site into a joyride. Whether enthusiasts need to hitch a trailer, conquer tight turns on off-road trails, or showcase their strength with up-fit equipment, the Super Duty is the go-to companion.

The Ford pickup workhorse dominates key segments like mining, construction, and utilities, and these machines leave their closest competitor in the dust—double the share, to be exact! With 96% of heavy-duty pickup owners towing their way through life, the Super Duty steps up with best-in-class towing of 40,000 pounds and a max payload of 8,000 pounds. The high-output 6.7-liter Power Stroke® V8 diesel cranks out an impressive 500 horsepower and 1,200 lb-ft of torque.

“We are so proud that Super Duty has earned the prestigious Truck of the Year award from the NACTOY jury, especially among a strong lineup of other finalists. It represents the relentless dedication our teams have to our customers and endless hours they’ve poured into designing, engineering and building Super Duty pickups and chassis cabs to be the ultimate BUILT FORD TOUGH® tool for work and recreation.”

 -Ford Super Duty Chief Program Engineer, Andrew Kernahan 

It’s not just about raw power; smart tech takes the spotlight, too! The Super Duty brings the party with available Pro Power Onboard to juice up the job site or campsite. Ford Pro’s software and services also strive to maximize uptime and supercharge productivity. And let’s not forget the Head-Up Display straight from a fighter jet plane and the class-exclusive 5G modem with Wi-Fi.

The excitement doesn’t end there! The 2024 model year rolls in with bumper-to-bumper tech innovations, updated options, and packages, making customization a breeze for this ideal truck.

Hold on, there’s more! Ford Co-Pilot360 Technology is within reach across all trims. For instance, 4×4 is the standard starting at XLT Trim, and exciting new colors join the scene—Darkened Bronze Metallic and Glacier Gray Metallic Tri-Coat. Commercial appeal enthusiasts, rejoice! The pickup box delete, in high demand, is back and available for the 2024 Super Duty.

Did you know that the 2024 model year marks the 47th consecutive year of the F-Series being crowned the best-selling truck in the U.S.? Now, that’s some serious street cred! The Super Duty springs to life in the good ol’ U.S.A. at Ford’s Ohio Assembly Plant and Kentucky Truck Plant. So, fasten your seat belts and brace yourselves for a thrilling journey with the 2024 Ford F-Series Super Duty—where power meets playfulness!
