Ford F-450
Author: <ADMINNICENAME>25.01.2007
The 6.4-liter V8 delivers 350 horsepower at 3,000 rpm and a massive 650 pound-feet of torque at 2,000 rpm. While this is an impressive improvement over the 6.0-liter V8’s 325 hp and 570 lb-ft, it merely levels the playing field. Chevy’s 6.6-liter Duramax diesel V8 makes 360 ponies and 650 lb-ft of torque. And it’s mated to a six-speed automatic, while the Ford’s F-450 still has a five-speed automatic.
The F-450 is not only massive on the outside but also massive (in design spirit, anyway) on the inside. A brand-new interior features a dash that carries lots of heavy-duty design themes, although it looks a bit overstated. On the plus side, the controls on the center stack are familiar and work well. And there are useful storage compartments everywhere.
With 24,500 pounds of towing capacity, the 2008 Ford F-450 might well be the only factory-built, heavy-duty choice that you have. Just enjoy the view!
