Ford Wins Truck Trends "Best in Class Work Truck 2008"

Ford Super Duty F-250 (Truck Trend Magazine)

This class is about back-breaking heavy-duty work chores and abuse. As such, we look more closely than usual at things like price, GVWR, actual curb weight, and engine options. We like that the Ford had the lowest base price, the highest real payload number, a towing capacity we know (for a fact) is quite conservative, and has one of the most sophisticated and high-tech twin-turbo diesel engines around. That's not to say there isn't plenty to love about the Cummins Ram or the Duramax Silverado HD too, but in the end having the truck look as different as possible from the half-ton version seems to tip the scales in the Super Duty's direction.
