- Reliability (4)Built on the Super Duty chassis, it is over-engineered for longevity. While the 6.0L diesel had known issues, the 6.8L V10 and 7.3L diesel variants are legendary for their durability.
- Maintenance (3)Parts are widely available and shared with the F-250, but routine costs are high due to massive oil capacities, expensive heavy-duty tires, and very poor fuel economy.
- Technology (2)The XLT trim is very basic by modern standards, featuring a simple AM/FM/CD player and manual climate controls, reflecting its roots as a utilitarian heavy-duty workhorse.
- Comfort (5)The interior space is unrivaled; it comfortably seats up to nine passengers with massive legroom and still provides more cargo space than almost any other vehicle ever produced.
- Dynamics (2)With its massive weight and truck-based leaf-spring suspension, it handles like a boat with significant body roll and a massive turning radius, though it is incredibly stable for heavy towing.
