Ford F-150, F-250 and F-350 Comparison Denver
Since 1948, continuous manufacturing of the F-series line of trucks by Ford, has made them one of the longest running lines vehicles with an uninterrupted past. The trucks in this series are known all over the world as ready to work trucks. Though Ford has released three models in this series including F-150, F-250 and F-350, the F-150 is considered the best-selling truck for over 30 years in US. But your choice to buy which of them can depend upon a number of factors like their engine, power, towing capacity, specifications and a number of their features. The Ford F-150, F-250 and F-350 comparison Denver, provided in this write-up will help people living in Denver, Colorado and other nearby areas to know them closely before finalizing their decision to buy any of them.
Options of models of the F-150, F-250, F-350
Ford offers various types of F-series trucks in different models with different engines, cabs and trim levels for you to choose as per your needs and desires. A basic breakdown of options provided here will help you in this Ford F-150, F-250 and F-350 comparison Denver.
Various models of F-150 including F-150 XLT, F-150 XL, F-150 Lariat, F-150 Platinum and F-150 King Ranch are available at different MSRPs including $25,420, $30,695, $38,685, $48,495 and $50,960 respectively but with similar engine options including 2.7L V6 EcoBoost, 3.5L V6 EcoBoost, 3.5L V6 FFV Engine and 5.0L V6 FFV Engine.

Though engine options for all the three basic models are same, the difference in their prices depend on various other features.
Classification by weight for the F-150, F-250, F-350
Normally trucks are named for their weight class but that weight is not the maximum weight they can carry. A half-ton truck can carry much more than its weight class, with the help of the latest technologies.
But still, weight class can make an obvious difference between the three trucks in the F-series line up. The smallest one, the F-150 is classified as a half-ton truck. Being a light-duty truck it is considered the best to tow smaller items like tools, furniture, appliances and lumber etc.
The F-250 is classified as a 3/4 ton truck and the F-350 is known as one ton pickup truck. Both of these trucks are known as super heavy-duty trucks with slight difference in their towing capacity and payloads.
Specification of chassis for the F-150, F-250, F-350
The chassis is the backbone and frame for any vehicle as most of its parts are held to it and its towing capacity and payload depends on its sturdiness. Being a light-duty truck the chassis of F-150 is lighter and less complex than other models, like the F-250 and F-350. The chassis of F-150 includes a stamped lower control arm and coil-over front shock suspension on a standard double-wishbone along with a solid axle and leaf spring suspension on its rear. The advanced suspensions on the chassis of F-250 and F-350 allow them to tow heavier loads.
Interior space of the F-150, F-250, F-350
Though all the models of F-series trucks can haul respectable loads in their beds, still the cab size of F-150 surpasses other models. Both the super heavy-duty cabs can accommodate 6 passengers in their cabin due to their strong built and larger towing capacity but the F-150 can provide larger head room and legroom to its passengers. Thus, the F-150 can be more a sensible option for you as it is more comfortable than its bigger brothers, if you do not need a vehicle with a greater hauling capacity.
Start searching the most suitable F-series pickup for you
Thusly, the basic thing you should consider while selecting a suitable pickup for you is the way you will use it. The F-150 in the Ford F-series is the best seller in the US due to various reasons including awesome fuel efficiency, affordable price and impressive performance. But if you want to tow heavier loads, then the more powerful F-250 or F-350 can be more suitable for you. These super heavy-duty trucks have been preferred by businesses, skilled laborers and contractors for many decades for this reason. To view our Ford F-Series inventory here
