Have you ever seen a creature in the God made world, which have the mighty 350 horsepower with the mere size of just 4x4 and the load barring capacity of around 12,500 pounds? Must not have seen but the deficiency of God’s creation is being efficiently filled up by creating a super power four legs (wheel) creature, 2009 Ford F-250 Super Duty.

The most innovative and the heavy weight elegant looked super duty is the one with some most fabulous and fantastic features. The 350 horsepower is the power which you can never imagine in any vehicle sizing just 4x4.  The straight axles and low range gearing makes the look of the truck just like a gypsy. Even being a truck, it never seems like a truck even to the driver, the Super Duty is just like a Clydesdale, a smooth, gentle and easy to pull vehicle. Even in the drive on mountains with enormous wind in front, or let it be the highway with the speed of 65 mph and even in full traffic, the fully loaded F-250 makes no change to the driver and even no stress at all. These are the wonderful features.

Despite of such a heavyweight body, the speed and pick up never created a problem for the Super duty. It’s the sound and steady experience to drive. Actually speaking, the driving experience doesn’t sound like driving; it just gives feeling like flying with the heavy cargo.

Even if we compare weight wise with the same brand product, the Ford Super Duty F-450 weighs around 16,500 pounds, the F-550 is as heavy as 19,500 pounds and with adding extra wheel it could be raised up to 33,000 pounds.  But the size and pick up differs a lot if compare to the new F- 250. The Super Duty unit configured a 10,000 GVWR with just a single ear wheel, 6.5 foot box and 3.73 axle gears. Ultimately the tow up capacity turned up to 12,500 pounds with a weight-distributing hitch.  The front axle can handle 5600 pounds and the rear 6100 pounds of load. Another phenomenal factor is that the Gross Combined Weight can even be 23,500.

The super Duty is being tested thoroughly by every means of utility by the company before the launching. The target was to make sure about the load barring capacity of the vehicle. The heavyweight 21 foot skipjack was used to determine the load capacity and the rugged boat loaded with fuel and camping gear  This can be considered to be one of the heavier in its type and lot heavier than the modern ski and bass boats. After loading the boat on an older trailer equipped with surge brakes, the load was tested and it really was a great challenge for any super duty which is not even given the advantage of weight-distributing hitch or even not the electric brakes. The whole combination of boat comprised to 13,700 pounds of load. In the total weight, the curb weight vehicle was measured at 7405 pounds and the boat and trailer weighed 5295 pounds.

The tactic of taking trial further moved ahead. They also took the trouble to weigh the truck alone "with all four tires on the scale" but with the boat still hooked up. The idea was to approximate the tongue load, which should be 10 to 15 percent of the total weight of the trailer, or in this case, no more than 779 pounds. With the boat still resting off the scales, the truck and driver weighed 8820.

Strangely and strongly, the whole load was so easily barred up by the F-250 that it found like nothing. Naturally, there was plenty of power and capacity in the Super Duty. Even to check the load barring capacity in the slope area, the test drive was done in the area up the 4190-foot Cajon Pass, a section of Interstate 15 between Los Angeles and Las Vegas known for wind and heat. Surprisingly, this ride was also passed easily. There was no where the feeling of new car being checked.

Then it was the turn of heat effect to check, the vehicle was towed at a steady 65 mph speed in the wind warnings. The outside temperature was over 82 degrees and the Super Duty was having just five coolers but the engine worked quite satisfactorily. In the extreme hot condition also, the Super Duty worked with no undue concerns.

The common problem noted in such Super duty vehicles, is that they are good in the load barring jobs but when the bed is empty and the truck has nothing in it, the driving becomes quite punishing. The F-250 actually rides better than the empty Tundra. The two straight axles which are to boost the steering ability are really good even with 20 inch vehicles at even 60 psi. The ride genuinely represents a decently smooth ride.

The special specialty of the Super Duty is the comfortable and leisure forcing cabin. The interior is enriched with the aniline flawless leather trim and fabulous attracting stitched seats. Wood-trim dash pieces give a glimpse and glamorous look with textured plastic dash surrounds. The driver’s seat is designed specially considering the comfort and relaxation zone and is well shaped and supportive, firm but not hard. It's intentionally kept wide to restrict the access to the door map pockets. The seats possess adjustable lumbar support and provide a good amount of front legroom. Varying comfort from all other Super Duty to the driver is that, the driver's seat can be moved up very close to the wheel.

The facilities for the short drivers are also seen while making the interiors by coupling with adjustable brake and throttle pedals. Also there are two memory switches that can recall seat and mirror settings. The four-spoke steering wheel has embedded cruise control buttons on the left hand, and audio controls on the right. The A/C swiveling vents are made round and also easy to adjust and highly directional.

Now shifting backwards towards the back seat with the crew cab, The back row offers more legroom than in front. The rear seats share the same gorgeous leather trim and offer adult legroom and adult headroom, though they do not recline or adjust. The center headrest is not included instead a 12-volt power plug is fixed. Two adults can easily ride in the backspace.

The instrument is surrounded with large tach and speedometer. Four one-inch gauges for boost, water temp, Trans temp, and fuels are arrayed across the cluster. They're small, rather vaguely numbered, but they do keep tabs on critical functions. The cluster is having an info center that displays average mileage, miles to empty, the odometer, and two trip odometers. There are a total of eight cup holders, counting the two in the flip-down console in the back seat. The average offered by the F-250 is approx 12.7 mpg while driving the truck empty. With the weight around 7500 pounds, the average is really nice to have.

Another highly appreciated feature is the power towing-mirror system, which extend mirrors outward for good viewing around long trailers, offering normal and wide-angle views. The power train warranty is five years or 60,000 miles.
