First Drive: 2011 Ford F-Series Super Duty
2011 Ford F-Series Super Duty - Ford Heavy Duty Pickup Review - Automobile Magazine
The power of a sledgehammer, but with some high-tech evolution.

The engineers at Ford know there’s a lot at stake with the unveiling of their new 2011 Ford Super Duty. Last year Dodge came to market with a hugely revised Ram HD pickup with great success. Later this year, General Motors brings a new Chevy Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD to the party. And in just a few months, buyers will have three new trucks to choose from, each in a violent battle for market share in one of the most highly profitable segments in the automotive universe. To call this launch critical is a huge understatement.inline_mediumwraptextright2011 Ford Super Duty28314379/reviews/driven/1003_2011_ford_f_series_super_duty1003_01_z+2011_ford_f250_super_duty_crew_cab+front_three_quarters_view.jpgTrue
