2022 Ford F-350

The 2022 Ford F-350 comes in five available trims: XL, XLT, Lariat, King Ranch, and Platinum. It also has three cab configurations, two bed sizes, and five wheelbases. You won't mistake the truck for anything but a workhorse, as most of the trims are adorned with bulky quad headlights and wide wheel arches. The base trim has 17-inch steel wheels, while the XLT trim includes 18-inch alloy ones. The Tremor Off-Road package includes a specialized suspension that raises the truck's height by 2 inches as well as adds 35-inch all-terrain tires. In addition to a new paint palette, the F-350 has a new Lariat Sport package that adds chrome exhaust, black running boards, and body-color bumpers.

Larger vehicles require larger engines, and the 2022 Ford F-350 has three powerful ones. The base 6.2-liter V-8 engine churns out 385 horsepower and 430 pound-feet of torque, while the 7.3-liter V-8 engine cranks out 430 horsepower and 475 pound-feet of torque. If you're looking for a diesel-powered engine, opt for the 6.7-liter V-8 turbodiesel that gets 450 horsepower and an amazing 1,050 pound-feet of torque. The base engine is paired with a six-speed automatic transmission, while the other two are connected to a 10-speed automatic one.

If those numbers don't impress you too much, then take a look at the 2022 Ford F-350's best-in-class towing capacity of 21,200 pounds and 37,500 pounds when using a gooseneck. It also boasts a payload capacity of 7,850 pounds.

Cab choices for the 2022 F-350 include the Regular, Super, and Crew. All three offer a roomy and comfortable interior. The Lariat trim includes a leather-wrapped steering wheel and upholstery, while the King Ranch adds leather upholstery, wood trim, and a heated steering wheel. To keep you connected on- and off-site, the truck comes standard with a USB port and a Wi-Fi hot spot for connectivity up to 10 devices. It now features a 12-inch touch-screen display running Ford's latest Sync 4 infotainment system. Moving up from the base trim will give you numerous options, some of which include wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, satellite radio, navigation, and wireless charging.

Although the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration rarely test heavy-duty vehicles, it doesn't mean that manufacturers don't take safety into account. Ford gave every F-350 several standard features, including a rearview camera, automatic headlights, and tire pressure monitoring. If you're someone who wants additional guidance when backing up a trailer, consider adding the trailer tow camera system with Pro Trailer Backup Assist. This package, which is standard on the King Ranch and up, gives you a 360-degree camera image, reversing guidelines, and guidance when backing up. This self-steering system is controlled via a rotary dial, but it also works with fifth wheels and gooseneck adaptors.
