Not tested by NHTSA
|
The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA) provides 3
different ratings -
full-width frontal crash test
,
side impact crash test
, and
rollover resistance
. The frontal crash test indicates how
well the safety features and restraints
will protect an occupant in a head-on
collision. The side-impact test conveys
the chance of a severe chest injury,
while the rollover resistance rating
estimates the risk of rolling over in a
single vehicle crash.

Summary:
|
Super-duty looks with super-duty capability.
By Sue Mead, NewCarTestDrive.com
Ford anticipates selling the millionth version of their Super Duty pickup since its 1999 redesign. That's an amazing achievement, and suggests that the popularity of these big trucks isn't a fluke.We like the F-250's styling. But with features that make it as comfortable as a luxury car and capabilities that allow it to perform more work than ever before, this F-250 is a thing of beauty. |
|
Overview:
|
Ford's Super Duty pickups look like serious big rigs and they are. At last count, Ford was offering 44 different configurations of its Super Duty pickups. Any one of them can pull everything from a horse trailer to a big Airstream camper. Some can do much more. For most of us, the Super Duty line consists of the F-250 and F-350 (three-quarter- and one-ton) models. (Ford also offers even bigger F-450, 550, 650, and 750 series of commercial-grade trucks.) The F-250 and F-350 are available in regular-cab, extended-cab (SuperCab) and Crew Cab configurations. The Crew Cab versions come with four full-sized doors, and are the most passenger-friendly models. Both two- and four-wheel drive versions are offered, with engine choices: 5.4-liter V8, 6.8-liter V10, and 7.3-liter turbodiesel V8. Changes for 2001 include a trailer-towing package (equipped to tow 10,000 pounds) and four-wheel ABS as standard equipment for all trim levels. Also, XLT models now come standard with remote keyless entry and power mirrors. Finally, audio system upgrades are included throughout the line.
