5 reasons to buy the 2014 Ford F250

1. Utilitarian and bold

Ford's Super Duty range of trucks is built to stand out while being as practical as possible, and the 2014 Ford F250 is no different. Whether you're looking to haul some toys, carry materials for work, or head off-road, the Ford F250 has you covered. You'll love the lockable under-seat storage for tools and other valuables, plus the other handy cubbies and bins throughout the cabin. 

2. Built to tow

If you're eager to tow toys, equipment, trailers, or even another vehicle, the 2014 Ford F250 is ready. For maximum towing capacity, look for the 6.7L turbodiesel engine, which has an estimated towing capacity of 14,000 lbs. with a regular trailer, when properly equipped.

 With a gooseneck trailer, this jumps to an estimated 16,800 lbs. on two-wheel-drive models with the 6.7L engine, when properly equipped.

3. Lots of options

The 2014 Ford F250 is a versatile truck with a range of options, including a shorter six-foot-eight-inch bed and a longer eight-foot bed. If you want to fit more people, look for SuperCab and Crew Cab models. Top-end trims like the Lariat, King Ranch, and Platinum are only available with the larger cab sizes, so if you want the regular cab, you'll need either the XL or XLT trim. This wide range of size and trim options means you can find the F250 suited to suburban life or the one ready to go big on the open road.

4. Luxury trims

If you like a little luxury when traveling to the work site—or want to roll up in style when you pick up the kids from school—look for the King Ranch and Platinum trims. You'll still get all the practicality of a pickup with a refined exterior design and some high-end interior features. King Ranch trims feature exclusive badging, woodgrain interior accents, a leather-wrapped heated steering wheel, and so much more. Take a step up to the Platinum trim and you get premium leather throughout, heated and cooled front seats, power-folding mirrors, and more.

5. On- and off-road capability

With available four-wheel drive, the 2014 Ford F250 is a weekend warrior. You might be tackling a dusty job site during the week, but your Super Duty truck can accompany you into the wilderness whenever you'd like. This means weekend camping trips are on the menu, or you could just drive up the mountain for some stargazing from the truck bed.
