For anyone who tows or hauls as part of their workday, Ford trucks usually don’t need much of an introduction. The 2025 Ford F-250 is the company’s latest in the F-250 line, and has already proven itself as quite the powerful workhorse. With features such as remarkable performance, impressive towing and payload capacity, and advanced safety technology, the 2025 F-250 should be high on the list of anyone in need of a heavy-duty truck.

The 2025 Ford F-250: Strength on the Road
Performance
A 6.8L V8 engine comes on the base trim and is capable of generating up to 400 horsepower and 485 lb-ft of torque. However, what makes the F-250 so special is the option to go for the Power Stroke diesel 6.7L V8, which is capable of up to 475 horsepower and 1050 lb-ft of torque on the lower output model. Regardless of engine choice, a ten-speed automatic transmission makes driving these powerful trucks a breeze.
Towing and Payload Capacity
Either engine is more than capable of handling even the heaviest of your towing needs, from machinery to trailers. The 2025 F-250 base trim boasts a maximum payload of 4,240 lbs for the 6.8L gas engine. It can also tow up to 21,000 lbs (GCWR). The 6.7L Turbo diesel engine option, by comparison, can tow up to 23,500 lbs and has a maximum payload of 3,473 lbs.
Safety and Driver Assistance Technology
No matter what the road throws at you, the F-250 is designed to keep you safe and your belongings secure. The base trim comes with remote keyless entry, a SecuriLock passive anti-theft system, and a one-year subscription to the Ford Security Package (must be activated). In terms of driver safety, the base model also comes equipped with an SOS Post Crash Alert System, as well as a Safety Canopy System with side-curtain airbags.
State-of-the-art driver assistance technology will keep you in control on the go, regardless of today’s uncertain conditions. A rearview camera comes standard, as well as intermittent windshield wipers for when the weather takes a turn. The steering wheel contains audio controls, allowing you to navigate your display with ease while not taking your eyes off the road. Finally, Trailer Sway Control will keep your cargo secure while towing so you can focus solely on driving.
