The 2024 Ford F-250 SD is one of the most practical and versatile heavy-duty trucks on the market. This workhorse of a truck has plenty of innovative features to keep you intrigued, including one that’s particularly helpful if you intend to upfit the truck for commercial use.

1. The Off-Road Package

If you need to take your truck on the trails, then consider equipping the XL Off-Road Package. It makes this already capable and rugged truck even more impressive. Its features are all designed to make it easier to tackle difficult terrain.

The package equips your truck with tall 33-inch tires made for off-roading, an electronic locking rear differential, and skid plates for your fuel tank. It also improves the approach angle for the truck. It even adds water fording vent tubes.

2. The Useful Camera Views

This truck has a standard rearview camera, making it significantly easier to see what’s going on behind you while you’re reversing. A 360-degree camera system is available, letting you safely maneuver through any space while easily able to see what’s going on around the truck. You can view the feed from the camera system on the 8-inch infotainment screen, which provides a crisp, clear picture. Wired auxiliary trailer camera compatibility is also available.

3. The Fantastic Wi-Fi Hotspot

The F-250 SD has a 5G Wi-Fi hotspot that can get 10 devices connected to the internet at once. That makes the truck a moving Wi-Fi hub that can be extremely useful for both work and play.

4. The Ford Pro Upfit Integration System

If you’ll be installing and operating vehicle accessories for work, then you should seriously consider equipping the optional Upfit Integration System. It’s a software that makes upfitting significantly simpler, allowing you to easily integrate any new equipment with the truck.

Upfitters have access to over 100 CAN signals, 32 inputs, 25 outputs, and several other features that make it as easy as possible to access the signals and data needed to get your upfit to seamlessly communicate with your truck.

5. The Safety Features

The F-250 has several standard safety and convenience features. Cruise control makes driving safer and more relaxing when it’s in use, as it automates your speed. Trailer Sway Control and Hill Start Assist help give you better control over your trailer, even when you’re driving up steep hills.
