Capability & Towing

What is the maximum towing capacity of the 2027 Ford Super Duty?

The 2027 Super Duty tows up to 40,000 lbs when properly equipped. That rating applies to the F-450 DRW configured for gooseneck towing with the 6.7L High-Output Power Stroke V8 Turbo Diesel. Conventional towing capacity varies by series, cab, axle ratio, and configuration, so check the towing guide or ask our Sidney team to match your rig to the right build.

What is the maximum payload capacity of the 2027 Ford Super Duty?

The 2027 Super Duty carries up to 7,900 lbs of payload. That top figure comes from the F-350 DRW Regular Cab 4×2 with the 7.3L gas engine and the Heavy-Duty Payload Package. Payload decreases with heavier trim levels, additional options, and passengers. Check the door-jamb label on any specific truck for its certified number.

Can the F-250 tow a fifth-wheel or gooseneck trailer?

Yes. The F-250 SRW supports gooseneck and fifth-wheel towing, though its ratings are lower than the heavier F-350 and F-450 platforms. With the 6.7L diesel and the F-250 High-Capacity Axle Upgrade Package, fifth-wheel ratings reach into the low-to-mid 20,000-lb range depending on cab and wheelbase. For the heaviest trailer loads, the F-350 DRW or F-450 DRW is the stronger choice.

What is Tow/Haul mode and what does it do?

Tow/Haul is one of five standard selectable drive modes on the TorqShift-G 10-speed automatic transmission. It modifies transmission shift points to reduce gear-hunting on steep grades, and it activates engine braking to help control speed on downhill runs. The result is steadier, more confident trailer handling on long pulls.

What is the difference between single rear wheel, SRW, and dual rear wheel, DRW?

Single rear wheel trucks, found on most F-250 and F-350 configurations, offer a narrower footprint and easier daily driving. Dual rear wheel trucks, available on the F-350 and standard on the F-450, add a second set of rear tires on each side. That wider stance increases payload and gooseneck towing capacity significantly. An F-350 DRW Regular Cab 4×2 with the 7.3L gas engine, for example, can carry 7,562 lbs of payload compared to roughly 4,000 lbs or less on a comparable SRW build.

Engines & Powertrain

What engine options are available on the 2027 Ford Super Duty?

Two engines are offered. The 7.3L 2V DEVCT NA PFI V8 Gas engine produces 420 hp and 445 lb-ft of torque and comes standard on the F-250 and F-350. The 6.7L High-Output Power Stroke V8 Turbo Diesel B20 produces 500 hp and 1,200 lb-ft of torque and comes standard on the F-450, with availability across all series. Both engines pair with a 10-speed automatic transmission.

Trucks equipped with the Tremor, FX4, or XL Off-Road Package add Rock Crawl as a sixth mode.

Is the 2027 Super Duty diesel compatible with biodiesel?

Yes. The 6.7L High-Output Power Stroke is rated for B20 biodiesel blends, meaning up to 20 percent biodiesel content. The gas engine requires 87-octane regular unleaded and is not E85 compatible.

What is the fuel tank capacity on the 2027 Super Duty?

Fuel capacity ranges from 29 gallons to 48 gallons depending on engine, wheelbase, and cab configuration. The 48-gallon tank is available on Crew Cab models with a 175.9-inch wheelbase. Smaller wheelbases typically use a 29- or 34-gallon tank.
