2026 Ford F-350 XLT

The F-350 is Ford's heavy-duty pickup, built for serious towing and payload work that a half-ton truck can't handle. It squares off against the Ram 3500 and Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD, both of which offer similar heavy-duty capability. The F-350 drives with the commanding presence you expect from a heavy-duty truck, and the steering is direct for its size. Crew cab models offer a genuinely spacious back seat, and higher trims bring leather and wood trim that feel more upscale than work truck. Standard heated and ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and the 12-inch SYNC 4 screen set the XLT apart from the XL work truck below it. The 7.3L V8 and automatic transmission make this XLT feel strong off the line, though rear-wheel drive means you'll want weight in the bed for winter traction.
