The 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty may be an idea whose time hasn't quite come. The completely overhauled, better-than-ever version of this tougher, heavier contender in Ford's popular F-Series was scheduled for release with the 2007 model year (along with a new F-350 Super Duty as well) but ongoing issues with diesel supplier International Truck delayed that release.
Early press on the '08 F250 Super Duty was enthusiastic. Reviewers praised its power and heft, while marveling over its nimble roadworthiness. Everyone agreed that the rugged, rounded styling (inspired by the Tonka Concept truck that attracted so much positive attention in 2005) was sexy and impressive.
However, the actual release of the 2008 F250 Super Duty has been troubled. Ford recalled 37,000 of the 2008 Super Duty trucks because of the danger of tailpipe fires; this setback, after the already costly delay of the release, may be difficult for Ford to overcome.
Let's hope the guys in Dearborn get the bugs worked out soon; this is a great-looking, sturdy pickup that has lots of potential for success as a workhorse on farm, ranch, and job site. It just needs to...well, you know...not catch fire and all.
What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty have mixed feelings. Many appreciate the truck's power, performance, and rugged appearance, along with its spacious and comfortable interior. However, frequent complaints revolve around poor fuel mileage, expensive maintenance, and various reliability issues such as check engine lights and hydraulic problems."
I'm in Arizona and the truck is California, but great price and features, invest a little on the 6.4 and I'd have a nice truck for years
February 25, 2026we enjoyed this vehicle because of the power it provided us during our travel days. We found that this f250 diesel had the get up and go to get out of traffic situations and had plenty of power to climb hills of California and mountains of Western US. I would say the fuel mileage was the down side, but I found I would rather spend the fuel money and ride in a comfortable cabin.
June 14, 2014Diesel trucks ROCK! Really powerful and pulls my horse trailer with no problem. Built like a tank and it's alot of fun to drive. Gas mileage kinda sucks, but for me it only gets driven on the weekends. Wasn't a big fan of leather until I got this truck! Very comfortable.

July 21, 2009Not much I didn't like other than the cost of diesel but that is offset by the surprising 16 miles a gallon the truck gets. Very comfortable inside and the body has great lines; very versatile functionion as truck or family vehicle.
March 7, 2015Performance with the sequential turbos is awesome. Won't beat a gas truck but all just raw power. Ride comfort is way above expectations for any truck. Build quality is I believe above most other vehicles IMO. The appearance inside and out beats the competition across the finish line in every case. Compare the top three trucks in the market and I believe first looks prior to test driving will go to Ford. After the test drive you'll be sold and after driving this truck for 4 years, I think it will be hard to find another vehicle to measure up to the ride comfort and utilitarian benefit of this truck.
July 19, 2012Great truck, horrible mileage and the price of diesel is astronomical right now. I'd recommend getting a Bully Dog programmer. After the simple installation the mileage has vastly improved and acceleration is phenomenal! For weighing 7800 lbs. it really gets up and moves. And of course this is the best looking super duty truck as well as being the most luxurious. No complaints
April 8, 2008Best Truck I have ever owned. 15-18 mpg regardless of throttle!
November 13, 2007it hauls very well looks real mean like it owns the road the motor in it is very durable i superchipped mine and it really brings out the turbo and torque its a little pricey especially with that diesel motor very very fun to drive
November 3, 2010Why own anything else! Diesel power to pull down a house, economy and build quality superior to any other truck on the planet. Comfort, luxury and utility all in one. Whether you are farming, construction or just pulling a trailer/boat, this is an amazing vehicle!
February 18, 2010Amazing quality truck. Handles nice and is fast. Sleek interior
