Lithia Springs Ford – How Much Can the 2026 Ford Super Duty F-250 Tow for Weekend Adventures near Hiram, GA?
When you are planning weekend getaways with a boat, camper, or equipment in tow, understanding what the 2026 Ford Super Duty® F-250® can handle is key. Super Duty® trucks lead the segment with best-in-class diesel horsepower and torque and best-in-class maximum available towing when properly configured. That foundation means the F-250® is engineered to manage serious loads with composure, while its advanced towing technology helps you make confident, precise moves at the boat ramp, campsite, or storage lot.
Your ideal setup depends on powertrain and equipment. The available 6.7L High Output Power Stroke® V8 Turbo Diesel B20 delivers 500 horsepower and an immense 1,200 lb-ft of torque for authoritative pulling. If you prefer gas, the available 7.3L 2V DEVCT NA PFI V8 Gas engine rates at 430 horsepower and 485 lb-ft of torque, offering strong, responsive acceleration. Pair either with the 10-speed automatic and the right hitch, axle, and tow package, and you are ready for conventional, fifth-wheel, or gooseneck trailering. The F-250® integrates available Pro Trailer Hitch Assist™ and Pro Trailer Backup Assist™ to make lining up and backing your trailer feel less stressful and more repeatable.
For many weekend haulers, visibility and balance matter as much as raw numbers. That is where the available 360-Degree Camera and Onboard Scales with Smart Hitch assist. The camera system can help you spot obstacles as you navigate tight areas, while Onboard Scales provide an estimated payload and help you distribute weight more evenly. Combined with integrated trailer brake control, you can dial in smoother starts and more controlled stops.
Power at the destination is another F-250® advantage. Available 2kW Pro Power Onboard™ turns your bed into a power station for lights, compressors, cooking gear, or entertainment. Whether you are prepping tackle at dawn or running a small setup at the campsite, built-in outlets keep your day moving without a separate generator. Inside, the available 12″ center display with SYNC® 4 and available head-up display help you manage routes and data without losing focus on the road.
