Joe walks a 2022 F-250 Super Duty Lariat and starts with the usual HD assumption: most people picture a Power Stroke diesel making over 1,000 lb-ft. That engine is an expensive option (he puts it around $11,500 over the base gas V8), diesel is running a dollar a gallon premium, and the 7.3-liter gas V8 is the Super Duty option a lot of buyers never even realize exists. He puts the 7.3 around 430 horsepower. It will not match a Power Stroke for 20,000-pound work, but if you are towing 10 or 12 thousand, or just filling the bed, you may not need the diesel.
He also covers why newer diesels are fussy on short trips. DEF / DPF systems want 20 to 45 minutes at operating temperature. Ten or 15 minutes around town and they do not finish a regen. Way Scarff’s medium-duty shop sees those failures, and a replacement can run eight to thirteen thousand. The gas 7.3 is simpler. No DEF tank on this one.
Then he compares this truck to an F-150. On paper a half-ton can be rated to 14,000 pounds. Tongue weight still squats a lighter truck, and a heavy trailer will push it around. Super Duty has more mass, a heavier rear axle, and a stiffer leaf-spring pack (he counts three leaves plus an overload on this one versus two plus overload on the F-150 next to it). If you would regularly max an F-150’s tow rating, he argues this gas Super Duty is the safer, more planted compromise.
This specific truck: Agate Black 2022 F-250 Lariat 4x4, chrome 20s, FX4, matching black canopy, about 3,000 miles and hardly used. Spray-in bedliner, heavy-duty hitch, Lariat leather with contrast stitching, all-season floor liners, flip-up rear seats with a collapsible storage box, PowerScope tow mirrors that fold and telescope, Pro Trailer Backup Assist, integrated trailer brake controller, heated and ventilated front seats, dual-zone climate, the big SYNC screen, 360 camera, hill descent, BLIS, and the B&O audio.
Come see it if you want Super Duty mass without buying a diesel you will not use.
Come check it out and take it for a drive at Way Scarff Ford in Auburn, WA — family-owned since 1922 and always treating you right.
