Worth knowing

  • The 7.3 gas V8 is a simpler alternative to the pricey diesel, though fuel use is heavy with any engine.

The trim we'd park in our garage

Look for the XLT: it adds nicer seats, power accessories and more driver-assist options over the work-grade XL. The 7.3-liter gas V8 tows strongly without diesel costs.

On the test drive

Many were work trucks. Look underneath for frame and brake-line rust, and check the hitch for heavy towing wear. Get a pre-purchase inspection and a vehicle history report before you buy.

Safety tech

  • Automatic emergency braking: standard from the start of this generation (2023).
  • Adaptive cruise control: optional from 2023, never standard in this generation.
  • Blind-spot monitoring: not standard in this generation, so check the listing.

* Estimated from nearby years, since few were listed for sale.

Worth knowing

  • 2022: owner complaints spike (121, mostly the fuel system).
  • Diesel models need DEF, and emissions parts can be costly to replace. Unloaded, the ride is stiff and bouncy.

The trim we'd park in our garage

Target the XLT: it adds power accessories, better infotainment and nicer trim over the work-oriented XL. The 6.7-liter diesel suits heavy towing, the 6.2-liter gas V8 most others.

On the test drive

Many were work trucks. Look underneath for frame and brake-line rust, and check the hitch for signs of heavy towing. Get a pre-purchase inspection and a vehicle history report before you buy.

Safety tech

  • Automatic emergency braking: optional from 2020, never standard in this generation.
  • Adaptive cruise control: optional from 2017, never standard in this generation.
  • Blind-spot monitoring: not standard in this generation, so check the listing.

* Estimated from nearby years, since few were listed for sale.

Worth knowing

  • Early 6.7 diesels had turbo issues, and the diesel's high-pressure fuel pump can fail expensively.

The trim we'd park in our garage

Look for the XLT: it adds power windows, locks and mirrors, cruise control and SYNC over the vinyl-floor XL. The 6.7-liter Power Stroke diesel suits heavy towing.

On the test drive

Many were work trucks. Look underneath for frame and brake-line rust, and check the hitch for heavy towing wear. Get a pre-purchase inspection and a vehicle history report before you buy.

Safety tech

  • Automatic emergency braking: not offered in this generation.
  • Adaptive cruise control: not offered in this generation.
