Powerful and versatile for work and play

The 2022 Ford F-450 is built for towing and hauling, but it also offers a comfortable and, arguably, luxurious ride. The 2022 version retains the 6.7L Power Stroke V8 turbodiesel engine, with 475 horsepower and 1,050 lb-ft of torque. A dual-rear-wheel setup is standard. With an extra-wide front axle, the 2022 F-450 can also make tighter turns than Ford’s other heavy-duty truck models.

New for 2022, the Ford F-450 includes a panoramic sunroof, automated cruise control, and Bang & Olufsen® audio as standard equipment. The 2022 models also offer the new SYNC® 4 infotainment software with over-the-air updates and an upgraded voice activation system.

5 reasons to buy the 2022 Ford F450

1. Massive hauling capacity 

With the turbodiesel engine, the 2022 Ford F-450 can tow up to an estimated 37,000 pounds when properly equipped. But the truck is more than just muscle for the workday. It also has the comfort and technology to satisfy those looking for a family vehicle or a weekend pickup to haul campers or boats. 

2. Two powerful engine options 

The 2022 Ford F-450 is available with one of two powerful engines. The first is the gasoline-powered, 7.3L V8 with 430 horsepower and 475 lb-ft of torque. The other option is the 6.7L Power Stroke V8 turbodiesel with 475 horsepower and 1,050 lb-ft of torque. If heavy hauling is on your agenda, the turbodiesel is the right choice. 

3. Upgraded technology 

The 2022 Ford F-450 includes an upgraded infotainment system. For the first time in 2022, there's an available 12-inch touchscreen. Also, the new system includes Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ connectivity, along with the Co-Pilot360 suite of driver assistance features. 

4. Luxurious cabin 

When you’re riding in a 2022 Ford F-450, it’s easy to forget you’re in one of the hardest working trucks on the road. That's because the interior trim options range from very comfortable to positively luxurious. Some of the available features include seat heaters, seat coolers, a heated steering wheel, remote start, memory seats, and power seat adjustment controls.

 

5. Ample storage 

There are plenty of options for stowing your stuff in the 2022 Ford F-450. The spacious center console is big enough for a laptop computer and a stack of file folders. With numerous cup holders, door panel storage, and under-seat storage, you'll have room for your coffee, water, snacks, and all the tools you might need throughout the day.
