If your day starts with a gooseneck and ends with a boat trailer, the 2026 Ford Super Duty® was engineered with you in mind. With best-in-class diesel horsepower and torque and a maximum available gooseneck tow rating up to 40,000 lbs, this truck is built to shoulder serious responsibility. Whether you lean toward an F-250®, F-350®, or F-450®, four proven powertrains let you tailor the pull: the hardworking 6.8L V8 gas, the big-bore 7.3L V8 gas, the 6.7L Power Stroke® V8 Turbo Diesel, and the 6.7L High Output Power Stroke® V8 Turbo Diesel. If you’re hauling heavy equipment during the week and a camper on weekends around Racine, WI, Super Duty® pairs brute strength with trailering technology that makes the toughest tasks feel routine.
Hookups get faster and more accurate thanks to available Pro Trailer Hitch Assist™, which helps guide alignment to the hitch ball. When you’re backing into the perfect campsite or down a narrow ramp, available Pro Trailer Backup Assist™ lets you steer the trailer with a simple dial. Onboard Scales with Smart Hitch help estimate cargo and tongue weight so you leave the guesswork behind. For added peace of mind, the available 360-Degree Camera gives a bird’s-eye perspective during low-speed maneuvers, and PowerScope® trailer tow mirrors extend your field of view on the highway.

Inside, the available 12″ center display with SYNC® 4 keeps maps, camera views, and towing checklists front and center. Add an available head-up display to keep critical data in your line of sight, and the cabin becomes a command center on the move. If your adventures run off the grid, available 2kW Pro Power Onboard™ transforms the bed into a ready outlet hub for campsite lighting or power tools. Prefer dirt over pavement? The Tremor® Off-Road Package, FX4® Off-Road Package, and XL Off-Road Package add hardware and tuning to help you venture farther with your trailer in tow.
For shoppers comparing builds, start with your heaviest realistic trailer, then add a margin for growth. That single number will guide you toward the right engine, axle, tow package, and even the ideal model—F-250®, F-350®, or F-450®. If you’re unsure where you’ll land, our advisors can model payload and tongue weight scenarios and walk you through the tech that makes your towing safer and faster.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Which engine is best for maximum towing on the 2026 Ford Super Duty®?
For the highest ratings, look to the 6.7L High Output Power Stroke® V8 Turbo Diesel. Its best-in-class diesel horsepower and torque unlock the top gooseneck and 5th-wheel capacities when appropriately configured. If your loads vary and you want strong performance without going all-in on maximum ratings, the 6.7L Power Stroke® V8 Turbo Diesel remains an excellent, high-torque choice.
What towing tech should I prioritize if I hitch frequently?
Start with Pro Trailer Hitch Assist™ for guided couplings and Pro Trailer Backup Assist™ for stress-free reversing. Add Onboard Scales with Smart Hitch to verify cargo and tongue weight before you roll. These three systems work together to make your routine faster, safer, and more repeatable day after day.
