Used 2013 Ford F-350 Super Duty for Sale nearWashington, DC

As with most pickup trucks, there are a nearly endless number of combinations you can use to create your 2013 Ford F-350 Super Duty pickup. The combinations begin with 5 different trim levels: XL, XLT, Lariat, King Ranch and Platinum. From there, buyers can choose from a myriad of drivetrains (rear-wheel or 4-wheel drive with either one of a pair of engines); bed lengths (6.8 foot or 8 foot); and cab styles (Regular, Crew Cab or SuperCab). Following a major redesign of the Super Duty lineup for 2011, no changes were made for the 2013 model year.

The XL and XLT trim levels are available with a Regular, Crew Cab or SuperCab; with RWD or 4WD; and with either a 6.8- or 8-foot-long bed. The Lariat trim is available with a Crew Cab or SuperCab, RWD or 4WD and a 6.8- or 8-foot-long bed. The King Ranch and Platinum trims are available only with a Crew Cab, with RWD or 4WD and a 6.8- or 8-foot-long bed. All trims come with single rear wheels by default; those with 8-foot beds can be configured with dual rear wheels.

Two powertrains are available for all trim levels of the 2013 Ford F-350 Super Duty pickup. All come standard with a 6.2-liter SOHC 2-valve Flex-Fuel V8 engine that makes 385 hp and 405 lb-ft of torque, but a 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 turbo-diesel that achieves 400 hp and 800 lb-ft of torque is also available. Each is paired with a TorqShift heavy-duty 6-speed automatic transmission with SelectShift. Mileage estimates for the F-350 Super Duty were not available as of publication date. The Flex-Fuel engine is capable of towing up to 15,000 pounds (15,800 pounds in dually configurations), while the turbo-diesel engine has a maximum towing capacity of 17,500 pounds, depending on configuration, with duallys topping out at 22,700 pounds.

Those who have bought a 2013 Ford F-350 Super Duty are impressed with the pickup’s towing capacity and smooth and quiet ride, but some are less than thrilled with its steering capability, while diesel owners lament its sluggish acceleration.

Although the 2013 Ford F-350 Super Duty has strong competition from the GMC Sierra 3500HD, Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD and Ram 3500, it leads the pack with its towing capacity and high-tech amenities inside the cabin.
