Is Ford changing the Super Duty in 2024?
Yes! In 2024, Ford outfitted the Super Duty with a few key tweaks to keep the model competitive when compared to its competitors from Chevy and GMC. Edmunds reports that 2024 saw the expansion of its technology features to further enhance the Super Duty towing experience, with its Onboard Scales with Smart Hitch technology feature being added to the XL and XLT trim levels. Designed to ensure owners don’t overload their F-250, it’s a handy feature that ensures your F-250 doesn’t experience any unneeded wear and tear while on the clock, translating directly to money (and time) saved keeping your Super Duty out of the repair shop.
