Let’s take a look at all the aspects of this Ford truck and this particular trim and analyze its impressive numbers in terms of power, performance, and towing capabilities.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
- The Ford Super Duty King Ranch is made with tough materials for everyday work use.
- The Super Duty can tow up to 40,000 pounds in its F-450 model.
- The King Ranch trim is named after a real ranch in Texas of the same name and pays homage to its rugged work ethic and size through its design.
What Is the King Ranch Trim?
The King Ranch is not a myth, and it’s not a marketing ploy—it’s a real place. At a little less than a million acres, King Ranch is the largest ranch, not only in Texas, but in the country. It is a working ranch with horses and cows and plenty of agriculture. Ford licenses the name from this privately owned organization to use on a truck that epitomizes its ruggedness and work ethic. The King Ranch trim starts with its MSRP at about $76,000.
Engine and Towing Power
You can choose from the F-250, F-350, and F-450, all of which have a King Ranch trim. There are four powerful engine options that are paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission for each:
- 6.8-liter V8 (400 horsepower and 445 lb-ft of torque)
- 7.3-liter V8 (430 horsepower and 485 lb-ft of torque)
- 6.7-liter Turbodiesel V8 (475 horsepower and 1,050 lb-ft of torque)
- 6.7-liter Turbodiesel HO V8 (500 horsepower and 1,200 lb-ft of torque)
The Super Duty King Ranch is a towing monster. You can tow up to 20,000 pounds on the F-250, while the F-350 has a maximum towing capacity of 21,000 pounds. The F-450, however, blows both of those of the water—it can tow a whopping 40,000 pounds maximum when properly outfitted, and its payload capacity is about 8,000 pounds.
All Super Duty models feature systems to help you tow cargo easily and safely. They include adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, and an integrated trailer brake controller.
Practical, Clean Interiors
The Super Duty King Ranch is a work truck—it is, therefore, less about luxury. Comfort is still a priority, but as an everyday driver and hauler, its seats and floor are made of commercial grade materials that do take a beating. These materials are strong enough to handle cargo, dirt and frequent ins and outs. It also takes its cues from the actual King Ranch with ranch themed looks and vibes.
The Super Duty King is equipped for everything—even rest. Its front seats fold down almost flat should you need to pull over for a power nap. The cab also features many cubbies and storage areas for your things. There’s even a lockbox under the backseat for valuables.
